• groupId: org.openrewrite.recipe

• artifactId: rewrite-java-dependencies

• version: 1.7.0

Options

Type	Name	Description	Example
String	oldGroupId	The old group ID to replace. The group ID is the first part of a dependency coordinate 'com.google.guava:guava:VERSION'. Supports glob expressions.	org.openrewrite.recipe
String	oldArtifactId	The old artifact ID to replace. The artifact ID is the second part of a dependency coordinate 'com.google.guava:guava:VERSION'. Supports glob expressions.	rewrite-testing-frameworks
String	newGroupId	Optional. The new group ID to use. Defaults to the existing group ID.	corp.internal.openrewrite.recipe
String	newArtifactId	Optional. The new artifact ID to use. Defaults to the existing artifact ID.	rewrite-testing-frameworks
String	newVersion	Optional. An exact version number or node-style semver selector used to select the version number.	29.X
String	versionPattern	Optional. Allows version selection to be extended beyond the original Node Semver semantics. So for example,Setting 'version' to "25-29" can be paired with a metadata pattern of "-jre" to select Guava 29.0-jre	-jre
Boolean	overrideManagedVersion	Optional. If the new dependency has a managed version, this flag can be used to explicitly set the version on the dependency. The default for this flag is false.

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.ChangeDependencyExample. 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.ChangeDependencyExample
displayName: Change Gradle or Maven dependency example
recipeList:
  - org.openrewrite.java.dependencies.ChangeDependency:
      oldGroupId: org.openrewrite.recipe
      oldArtifactId: rewrite-testing-frameworks
      newGroupId: corp.internal.openrewrite.recipe
      newArtifactId: rewrite-testing-frameworks
      newVersion: 29.X
      versionPattern: '-jre'

Now that com.yourorg.ChangeDependencyExample has been defined activate it and take a dependency on org.openrewrite.recipe:rewrite-java-dependencies:1.7.0 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.ChangeDependencyExample")
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    rewrite("org.openrewrite.recipe:rewrite-java-dependencies:1.7.0")
}

2. Run gradle rewriteRun to run the recipe.

Maven

1. Add the following to your pom.xml file:

pom.xml

<project>
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.openrewrite.maven</groupId>
        <artifactId>rewrite-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>5.29.0</version>
        <configuration>
          <activeRecipes>
            <recipe>com.yourorg.ChangeDependencyExample</recipe>
          </activeRecipes>
        </configuration>
        <dependencies>
          <dependency>
            <groupId>org.openrewrite.recipe</groupId>
            <artifactId>rewrite-java-dependencies</artifactId>
            <version>1.7.0</version>
          </dependency>
        </dependencies>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
</project>

2. Run mvn rewrite:run to run the recipe.
