Usage

This recipe has required configuration parameters. Recipes with required configuration parameters cannot be activated directly. To activate this recipe you must create a new recipe which fills in the required parameters. In your rewrite.yml create a new recipe with a unique name. For example: com.yourorg.DependencyInsightExample. Here's how you can define and customize such a recipe within your rewrite.yml:

rewrite.yml

---
type: specs.openrewrite.org/v1beta/recipe
name: com.yourorg.DependencyInsightExample
displayName: Gradle dependency insight example
recipeList:
  - org.openrewrite.gradle.search.DependencyInsight:
      groupIdPattern: com.fasterxml.jackson.module
      artifactIdPattern: jackson-module-*
      version: 1.x
      configuration: compileClasspath

Now that com.yourorg.DependencyInsightExample has been defined activate it in your build file:

Gradle

1. Add the following to your build.gradle file:

build.gradle

plugins {
    id("org.openrewrite.rewrite") version("6.12.0")
}

rewrite {
    activeRecipe("com.yourorg.DependencyInsightExample")
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

2. Run gradle rewriteRun to run the recipe.

Moderne CLI

You will need to have configured the Moderne CLI on your machine before you can run the following command.
