JsonPath lib works when ran in IntelliJ, but won't build/run when compiled

[Semx11]

I have added the JsonPath library for Java (https://github.com/jayway/JsonPath) to my ForgeGradle project.

 

Following the ForgeGradle wiki on Github, I have added this library to my build.gradle, which looks like this:

 

configurations {
    embed
    compile.extendsFrom(embed)
}

dependencies {
    embed 'com.jayway.jsonpath:json-path:2.2.0'
}

jar {
    from configurations.embed.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it) }
}

 

This works fine in IntelliJ when using the "Run: Minecraft Client" (or "Debug: Minecraft Client") option.

When running "gradlew.bat build" in the terminal, it prints out the following stacktrace:

 

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
              
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':reobfJar'.
> java.util.zip.ZipException: duplicate entry: org/objectweb/asm/AnnotationVisitor.class

BUILD FAILED  

 

I solved this particular error by changing the following in my build.gradle:

dependencies {
    embed ('com.jayway.jsonpath:json-path:2.2.0') {
        transitive = true
        exclude module: 'asm'
    }
}

 

This solution (that I found on Google/Stackoverflow) worked to a certain extent. My build ran succesfully, but when trying to launch Minecraft it gives the following error:

The stacktrace says that it can't find org\slf4j\LoggerFactory.class, but when I look in my .jar:

 

 

I have tried everything, even manually downloading all the extra libraries that JsonPath seems to need, but with no luck. I am out of options, so that's why I am here, hoping somebody knows how to add it.

 

The thing that confuses me the most is that it works fine when running it in IntelliJ.

 

If you need any additional information about my project settings, or anything really, please let me know, and I will post it.

 

Thank you in regards,

JsonPath indirectly depends on ASM, which minecraft also uses.

You should be using a shading plugin for gradle.

 

After being in contact with some people on the #ForgeGradle IRC, my build.gradle now looks like this (and runs fine):

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven {
            name = "forge"
            url = "http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven"
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'net.minecraftforge.gradle:ForgeGradle:2.1-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}

plugins {
    id 'com.github.johnrengelman.shadow' version '1.2.3'
}

apply plugin: 'net.minecraftforge.gradle.forge'

version = "1.3"
group = "me.semx11.[secret]"
archivesBaseName = "[secret]"

sourceCompatibility = '1.8'
targetCompatibility = '1.8'

minecraft {
    version = "1.8.9-11.15.1.1722"
    runDir = "run"
    mappings = "stable_20"
}

shadowJar {
    relocate 'com.jayway.jsonpath', 'me.semx11.[secret].repack.com.jayway.jsonpath'
}

reobf {
    shadowJar { mappingType = 'SEARGE' }
}

tasks.build.dependsOn reobfShadowJar

dependencies {
    compile 'com.jayway.jsonpath:json-path:2.2.0'
}

processResources {
    inputs.property "version", project.version
    inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include 'mcmod.info'
        expand 'version': project.version, 'mcversion': project.minecraft.version
    }

    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        exclude 'mcmod.info'
    }
}

idea {
    module.inheritOutputDirs = true
}

 

When using

"gradlew.bat clean build"

, it builds the shaded jar.

 

When launching Minecraft, it still produces the following error:

I have read on Stackoverflow that I need several slf4j .jars. I have tried all the combinations that were suggested on StackOverflow, but none of them worked. When adding

"compile group: 'org.slf4j', name: 'slf4j-api', version: '1.7.21'"

to my build.gradle in the dependencies block, it strangely enough does not increase the .jar size, nor changes anything regarding the stacktrace error that is thrown.

 

How do you correctly add SLF4J to your build.gradle?

Bump? It's the only issue I have left, and it appears using ForgeGradle.
