Getting Gradle dependencies in IntelliJ IDEA using Gradle build

Andrew picture Andrew · Dec 29, 2014 · Viewed 166.8k times · Source

Grade build, even from inside IntelliJ IDEA does not put the dependencies into the "External Libraries" folder, so these classes don't show up as suggestions in the editor and when I manually add them as an import there is a compile error.

How can I get IntelliJ to automatically incorporate the dependencies in my build.gradle file, for instance:

compile 'com.google.code.gson:gson:1.7.2

After adding dependencies open "Gradle" ('View'->Tool Windows->Gradle) tab and hit "refresh"

example of adding (compile 'io.reactivex:rxjava:1.1.0'):

hit refresh

If Idea still can not resolve dependency, hence it is possibly the dependency is not in mavenCentral() repository and you need add repository where this dependency located into repositories{}
