ant构建项目迁移到gradle,从ant + ivy迁移到gradle

I read many good things about gradle so I get impressed. Many people are enthusiastic how easy is to develop with gradle. They all emphasize the multi-project capabilies of gradle.

I already have a main project with some subprojects. The outside dependencies are defined in all the project's own ivy.xml. And the module interdependencies are defined in both eclipse's .classpath file and ant build.xml parallelly. This way i can build for IDE and can create a runtime with ant. Is there a simple way to migrate the same build structure from eclipse/ant and ivy to gradle (or gradle + ivy)?

The build process is simple:

Resolve the subproject's dependencies from ivy.xml

Build the subproject

(repeat 1 and 2 for all the subprojects)

Resolve the dependencies for main project (both from ivy and eclipse/ant config)

Build main project

Package everything into one jar file

Not rocket science... but it took many days to implement it in ant.

Is that really a simple to migrate that to gradle? If yes, what are the starting points?

I see that there is an eclipse plugin, but I see only the possibility to generate .classpath, not to parse/read it. I see an Ivy XML plugin too. It is not clear for me how to handle dependent projects/modules?

Any help is welcome.

If you don't have a lot of custom ant tasks and just need to convert your ivy dependencies, this will create gradle dependencies from your ivy.xml. Paste into an empty build.gradle alongside your ivy.xml and run gradle ivyToGradle. Then copy the output into your build.gradle file. Requires gradle 2.12+ due to use of the compileOnly configuration.

This will not handle all possible ivy.xml settings, you may need to tweak to your particular use of ivy.xml. It handles basics such as runtime configs, test configs, compile-only configs, global exclusions, transitive true/false, and version forcing.
