GitBook Plugin For Java/Scala Library Dependencies

This plugin helps to generate correct library dependencies for the following build systems:

• SBT
• Maven
• Gradle

Import the plugins in the file book.json:

{
  "title": "Test book",
  "plugins": [
    "javadeps",
    "codetabs"
  ]
}

Note that codetabs is a dependency of javadeps and must therefore be imported as well.

In your gitbook, write the following dependencies:

{% javadeps %}
  "a-groupId" %% "a-artifactId" % "a-version" % "a-scope"
  "b-groupId" %% "b-artifactId" % "b-version"
  "c-groupId" % "c-artifactId" % "c-version" % "c-scope"
  "d-groupId" % "d-artifactId" % "d-version"
{% endjavadeps %}

%% means that the dependency is a scala dependency.

Run gitbook install and gitbook build. The dependencies for the SBT, Maven and Gradle build systems will be generated in different code tabs.
