Installing Gradle Tooling from update site
Installing Gradle Tooling from update site
Alternatively you can install from update sites. The following update sites are available:
- http://dist.springsource.com/snapshot/TOOLS/gradle/nightly (latest development snapshot)
- http://dist.springsource.com/milestone/TOOLS/gradle (latest milestone build)
- http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/gradle (latest release)
Pasting the above URLs into a web browser will not work. You need to follow the instructions given below to use an Eclipse update site.
- In Eclipse Open Help >> Install New Software
- Paste a Gradle update site link into the “Work with” text box.
- Click the Add button at the top of the screen.
- Ensure that the option “Group Items by Category” is enabled.
- Select the top-level node ‘Extensions / Gradle Integration’.
- Click “Next”. This may take a while.
- Review the list of software that will be installed. Click “Next” again.
- Review and accept licence agreements and Click “Finish”.
If you follow this installation procedure in a plain Eclipse, this will install the STS Dashboard. This gives you an easy way to subsequently install Groovy Eclipse as well. See instructions on Installing from the STS Dashboard above.
