Create an executable JAR file gradle file to open it in the editor. in the editor to load the changes to your project. In the Gradle tool window, open the project's node, then the Tasks node and double-click the build task to run it. IntelliJ IDEA creates the build directory that contains our JAR file.
To view Gradle dependencies as a diagram, click on the Show Dependencies icon on the Gradle tool window toolbar or use the shortcut Alt+Shift+Ctrl+U on Linux and Windows / Alt+Shift+Cmd+U on macOS.
When you build your app, the build system compiles the library module and packages the resulting compiled contents in the app. Gradle declares dependencies on JAR files inside your project's module_name /libs/ directory (because Gradle reads paths relative to the build.gradle file).
To open the Gradle tool window we can: Click on the quick access button in the bottom left, and click Gradle. Or, if you have the Tool Window Bars open already, you can click on the Gradle button in the top right.
Add:
build.gradle
in your root project folder, and use plugin for example:
apply plugin: 'idea'
//and standard one
apply plugin: 'java'
and with this fire from command line:
gradle cleanIdea
and after that:
gradle idea
After that everything should work
There is no need to remove any .iml files. Follow this:
File -> Open... and choose your newly created build.gradle
Open Existing ProjectDelete Existing Project and ImportAnother way, simpler.
Add your
build.gradle
file to the root of your project. Close the project. Manually remove "*.iml" file and/or ".idea" directory. Then choose "Import Project...", navigate to your project directory, select the build.gradle file and click OK.
In IntelliJ 2017.2.4 I just closed the project and reopened it and I got a dialog asking me if I wanted to link with build.gradle which opened up the import dialog for Gradle projects.
No need to delete any files or add the idea plugin to build.gradle.
Just as a future reference, if you already have a Maven project all you need to do is doing a gradle init in your project directory which will generates build.gradle and other dependencies, then do a gradle build in the same directory.
