ComponentMetadataHandler

@ServiceScope(value = Project::class)
interface ComponentMetadataHandler(source)

Allows the build to provide rules that modify the metadata of software components resolved from external repositories. Component metadata rules are applied in the components section of the dependencies block DependencyHandler of a build script. The rules can be defined in two different ways:

  1. As an action directly when they are applied in the components section
  2. As an isolated class implementing the ComponentMetadataRule interface

Example shows a basic way of removing certain transitive dependencies from one of our dependencies.

plugins {
    id 'java'
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    components {
        withModule("jaxen:jaxen") {
            allVariants {
                withDependencies {
                    removeAll { it.group in ["dom4j", "jdom", "xerces", "maven-plugins", "xml-apis", "xom"] }
                }
            }

        }
    }
    implementation("jaxen:jaxen:1.1.3")
}
