Options

Type	Name	Description	Example
String	groupId	The first part of a dependency coordinate com.google.guava:guava:VERSION.	com.google.guava
String	artifactId	The second part of a dependency coordinate com.google.guava:guava:VERSION.	guava
String	scope	Optional. Match dependencies with the specified scope. If you specify compile, this will NOT match dependencies in runtime. The purpose of this is to be able to exclude dependencies that should be in a higher scope, e.g. a compile dependency that should be a test dependency.

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.ExcludeDependencyExample. 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.ExcludeDependencyExample
displayName: Exclude Maven dependency example
recipeList:
  - org.openrewrite.maven.ExcludeDependency:
      groupId: com.google.guava
      artifactId: guava
      scope: compile

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

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.ExcludeDependencyExample</recipe>
          </activeRecipes>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
</project>

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