This recipe has required options, which a build sets in a rewrite.yml recipe that you activate instead.

Usage

You’ll need the Moderne CLI configured before running the command below.

mod run . --recipe org.openrewrite.maven.AddDependency --recipe-option "groupId=com.google.guava" --recipe-option "artifactId=guava" --recipe-option "version=29.X"

If the recipe isn’t available locally, install it with:

Options

NameTypeDescription
groupIdrequiredStringThe first part of a dependency coordinate com.google.guava:guava:VERSION.
e.g. com.google.guava
artifactIdrequiredStringThe second part of a dependency coordinate com.google.guava:guava:VERSION.
e.g. guava
versionrequiredStringAn exact version number or node-style semver selector used to select the version number.
e.g. 29.X
versionPatternStringAllows version selection to be extended beyond the original Node Semver semantics. So for example,Setting 'version' to "25-29" can be paired with a metadata pattern of "-jre" to select Guava 29.0-jre
e.g. -jre
scopeStringA scope to use when it is not what can be inferred from usage. Most of the time this will be left empty, but is used when adding a runtime, provided, or test dependency.
e.g. runtime
releasesOnlyBooleanWhether to exclude snapshots from consideration when using a semver selector
onlyIfUsingStringUsed to determine if the dependency will be added and in which scope it should be placed. Required for multi-module projects to avoid adding dependencies unnecessarily.
e.g. org.junit.jupiter.api.*
typeStringThe type of dependency to add. If omitted Maven defaults to assuming the type is "jar".
e.g. jar
classifierStringA Maven classifier to add. Most commonly used to select shaded or test variants of a library
e.g. test
optionalBooleanSet the value of the <optional> tag. No <optional> tag will be added when this is null.
familyPatternStringA pattern, applied to groupIds, used to determine which other dependencies should have aligned version numbers. Accepts '*' as a wildcard character.
e.g. com.fasterxml.jackson*
acceptTransitiveBooleanDefault false. If enabled, the dependency will not be added if it is already on the classpath as a transitive dependency.
e.g. true
