Annotation Type GrabResolver

@Retention(value=SOURCE)
@Target(value={CONSTRUCTOR,FIELD,LOCAL_VARIABLE,METHOD,PARAMETER,TYPE})
public @interface GrabResolver

Used to add a repository for resolving Grape dependencies.

For example:

 @GrabResolver(name='restlet.org', root='http://maven.restlet.org')
 @Grab(group='org.restlet', module='org.restlet', version='1.1.6')
 class MyRestlet extends org.restlet.Restlet {
   // ...
 }
 

By default, the Grapes subsystem uses an Ivy chained resolver. Each resolver added using @GrabResolver is appended to the chain. By default, the grape subsystem is shared globally, so added resolvers will become available for any subsequent grab calls. Dependency resolution follows Ivy's artifact resolution which tries to resolve artifacts in the order specified in the chain of resolvers.

Further information about customising grape behavior can be found on the Grape documentation page: http://groovy.codehaus.org/Grape.

value

public abstract String value

Allows a shorthand form which sets the name and root to this value. Must not be used if name() or root() is non-empty.

root

public abstract String root

The URL for a repo containing the grape/artifact. A non-empty value is required unless value() is used.

Default:

""

m2Compatible

public abstract boolean m2Compatible

Defaults to Maven2 compatibility. Set false for Ivy only compatibility.

Default:

true

initClass

public abstract boolean initClass

By default, when a @GrabResolver annotation is used, a Grape.addResolver() call is added to the static initializers of the class the annotatable node appears in. If you wish to disable this, add initClass=false to the annotation.
