This can avoid creating an additional 736 tasks (previously 502 out of
1591 were not created). That's not all that important as the build time
is essentially the same, but this lets us see the poor behavior of the
protobuf plugin in our own project and increase our understanding of how
to avoid task creation when developing the plugin. Of the tasks still
being created, protobuf is the highest contributor with 165 tasks,
followed by maven-publish with 76 and appengine with 53. The remaining
59 are from our own build, but indirectly caused by maven-publish.
This moves our depedencies into a plain file that can be read and
updated by tooling. While the current tooling is not particularly better
than just using gradle-versions-plugin, it should put us on better
footing. gradle-versions-plugin is actually pretty nice, but will be
incompatible with Gradle 8, so we need to wait a bit to see what the
future holds.
Left libraries as an alias for libs to reduce the commit size and make
it easier to revert if we don't end up liking this approach.
We're using Gradle 7.3.3 where it was an incubating fetaure. But in
Gradle 7.4 is became stable.
failOnVersionConflict has never been good for us. It is equivalent to
Maven dependencyConvergence which we discourage our users to use because
it is too tempermental and _creates_ version skew issues over time.
However, we had no real alternative for determining if our deps would be
misinterpeted by Maven.
failOnVersionConflict has been a constant drain and makes it really hard
to do seemingly-trivial upgrades. As evidenced by protobuf/build.gradle
in this change, it also caused _us_ to introduce a version downgrade.
This introduces our own custom requireUpperBoundDeps implementation so
that we can get back to simple dependency upgrades _and_ increase our
confidence in a consistent dependency tree.
- Use gradle configuration `api` for dependencies that are part of grpc public api signatures.
- Replace deprecated gradle configurations `compile`, `testCompile`, `runtime` and `testRuntime`.
- With minimal change in dependencies: If we need dep X and Y to compile our code, and if X transitively depends on Y, then our build would still pass even if we only include X as `compile`/`implementation` dependency for our project. Ideally we should include both X and Y explicitly as `implementation` dependency for our project, but in this PR we don't add the missing Y if it is previously missing.
Define util function to exclude guava's transitive dependencies jsr305 and animal-sniffer-annotations, and always manually add them as runtimeOnly dependency. error_prone_annotations is an exception: It is also excluded but manually added not as runtimeOnly. It must always compile with guava, otherwise users will see warning spams if guava is in the compile classpath but error_prone_annotations is not.
maven_install is strongly superior to previous forms of grabbing dependencies
from Maven as it computes the appropriate versions to use from the full
transitive dependencies of all libraries used by an application. It also has
much less boilerplate and includes dependencies with generated targets.
In the future we will drop the jvm_maven_import_external usages and require
maven_install, at which point we can swap to using the `@maven' repository and
no longer depend on compat_repositories.
Fixes#5359
In 48929c4 the protobuf lite artifact name changed from protobuf-lite to
protobuf-javalite. However, the exclusion in grpc-protobuf was missed in the
update, allowing protobuf lite to leak into the classpath. This restores the
previous behavior of only having one protobuf implementation on the classpath.
Examples and android projects were left unchanged. They can be changed
later.
No plugin versions were changed, to make this as non-functional of a
change as possible. Upgrading Gradle to 5.6 was necessary for
pluginManagement in settings.gradle.
io.grpc has fewer dependencies than io.grpc.internal. Moving it to a
separate artifact lets users use the API without bringing in the deps.
If the library has an optional dependency on grpc, that can be quite
convenient.
We now version-pin both grpc-api and grpc-core, since both contain
internal APIs.
I had to change a few tests in grpc-api to avoid FakeClock. Moving
FakeClock to grpc-api was difficult because it uses
io.grpc.internal.TimeProvider, which can't be moved since it is a
production class. Having grpc-api's tests depend on grpc-core's test
classes would be weird and cause a circular dependincy. Having
grpc-api's tests depend on grpc-core is likely possible, but weird and
fairly unnecessary at this point. So instead I rewrote the tests to
avoid FakeClock.
Fixes#1447
This PR adds an automatic gradle format checker and reformats all the *.gradle files. After this, new changes to *.gradle files will fail to build if not in good format, just like checkStyle failure.
gRPC's protobuf-lite auto-selects between full and lite protobuf based on the
value of crosstool_top. If the user is specifying their own
--android_crosstool_top, then it will not auto-detect correctly. One day,
platforms will fix problems like this, but for the moment it seems we get to
live with it.
This was deprecated with Bazel 0.8.0, which now uses
@com_google_protobuf instead.
This change will break users that use
grpc_java_repositories(omit_com_google_protobuf_java=True), so I've
added a custom error message to make the resolution clearer.
This commit aligns the naming of the Bazel Maven jars with the names
used by Bazel's migration-tooling project:
https://github.com/bazelbuild/migration-tooling
Unfortunately, we can't fix @com_google_protobuf_java because it's
required by Bazel itself.
Fixes#3328
Bazel third party dependencies are specified in repositories.bzl which
gives the consumer the ability to opt-out of any dependencies they use
directly in their own project.
Fixes#2756
