Update Gradle wrapper

org.openrewrite.gradle.UpdateGradleWrapper

Update the version of Gradle used in an existing Gradle wrapper. Queries services.gradle.org to determine the available releases, but prefers the artifact repository URL which already exists within the wrapper properties file. If your artifact repository does not contain the same Gradle distributions as services.gradle.org, then the recipe may suggest a version which is not available in your artifact repository.

Boolean	addIfMissing	Optional. Add a Gradle wrapper, if it's missing. Defaults to true.

2. Run gradle rewriteRun to run the recipe.

Gradle init script

1. Create a file named init.gradle in the root of your project.

init.gradle

initscript {

        maven { url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2" }
    }
    dependencies { classpath("org.openrewrite:plugin:latest.release") }
}
rootProject {
    plugins.apply(org.openrewrite.gradle.RewritePlugin)
    dependencies {
        rewrite("org.openrewrite:rewrite-java")
    }
    rewrite {
        activeRecipe("org.openrewrite.gradle.UpdateGradleWrapper")
    }
    afterEvaluate {
        if (repositories.isEmpty()) {
            repositories {
                mavenCentral()
            }
        }
