Referring to Third-party Libraries with Dependency

You can use third-party libraries for an adapter. Few third-party libraries have transitive dependencies. You have to include these dependencies in the lib folder.

Gradle supports reference to third-party libraries and then resolve the transitive dependencies.

To refer to third -party dependency for an adapter sub project:

1. Navigate to the JCenter repository (https://bintray.com/bintray/jcenter) or to the Maven central repository (https://mvnrepository.com/repos/central).

2. Select the required library and click Gradle.

3. Copy the dependency text.

   The dependency text is in the form of compile org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.9

4. Open the build.gradle file of the sub-project in a text editor.

5. In the dependencies section, add the dependency text of step 3.

note

Adding the direct dependency on jackson-bind, includes the transitive dependency for jackson-core and jackson-annotations.
