How can I add a dependency ?

Posted June 3, 20196 yr

Hello,

I am trying to add a Discord Api Library to my mod, however I am not able to achieve that!

I have tried this:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven { url = "https://files.minecraftforge.net/maven" }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'net.minecraftforge.gradle:ForgeGradle:2.3-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'net.minecraftforge.gradle.forge'
//Only edit below this line, the above code adds and enables the necessary things for Forge to be setup.


version = "1.0"
group = "mod.minebot" // http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-naming-conventions.html
archivesBaseName = "minebot"

sourceCompatibility = targetCompatibility = '1.8' // Need this here so eclipse task generates correctly.
compileJava {
    sourceCompatibility = targetCompatibility = '1.8'
}

minecraft {
    version = "1.12.2-14.23.5.2838"
    runDir = "run"
    
    // the mappings can be changed at any time, and must be in the following format.
    // snapshot_YYYYMMDD   snapshot are built nightly.
    // stable_#            stables are built at the discretion of the MCP team.
    // Use non-default mappings at your own risk. they may not always work.
    // simply re-run your setup task after changing the mappings to update your workspace.
    mappings = "snapshot_20171003"
    // makeObfSourceJar = false // an Srg named sources jar is made by default. uncomment this to disable.
}

dependencies {

    implementation 'net.dv8tion:JDA:3.8.3_463'

}

processResources {
    // this will ensure that this task is redone when the versions change.
    inputs.property "version", project.version
    inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

    // replace stuff in mcmod.info, nothing else
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include 'mcmod.info'
                
        // replace version and mcversion
        expand 'version':project.version, 'mcversion':project.minecraft.version
    }
        
    // copy everything else except the mcmod.info
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        exclude 'mcmod.info'
    }
}

As is specified on the github page of the library:
https://github.com/DV8FromTheWorld/JDA/releases/tag/v3.8.3

But sadly I get this Error when I try to build:

Never mind I think I have gotten it to work with this:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven { url = "https://files.minecraftforge.net/maven" }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'net.minecraftforge.gradle:ForgeGradle:2.3-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'net.minecraftforge.gradle.forge'
//Only edit below this line, the above code adds and enables the necessary things for Forge to be setup.


version = "1.0"
group = "mod.minebot" // http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-naming-conventions.html
archivesBaseName = "minebot"

sourceCompatibility = targetCompatibility = '1.8' // Need this here so eclipse task generates correctly.
compileJava {
    sourceCompatibility = targetCompatibility = '1.8'
}

minecraft {
    version = "1.12.2-14.23.5.2838"
    runDir = "run"
    
    // the mappings can be changed at any time, and must be in the following format.
    // snapshot_YYYYMMDD   snapshot are built nightly.
    // stable_#            stables are built at the discretion of the MCP team.
    // Use non-default mappings at your own risk. they may not always work.
    // simply re-run your setup task after changing the mappings to update your workspace.
    mappings = "snapshot_20171003"
    // makeObfSourceJar = false // an Srg named sources jar is made by default. uncomment this to disable.
}

//Add "embedded" configuration
configurations {
    embed
    compile.extendsFrom(embed)
}

// Add dependencies
dependencies {
    // This dependency and its transitive deps will be embedded
    embed files("libs/JDA-3.8.3_463.jar")
}

//Add dependencies to the JAR
jar {
    from configurations.embed.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it) }
}

processResources {
    // this will ensure that this task is redone when the versions change.
    inputs.property "version", project.version
    inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

    // replace stuff in mcmod.info, nothing else
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include 'mcmod.info'

How do you add a mob to spawn around a existing vanilla structure?

So I have a custom mob that I wanna spawn around pillager outposts naturally. maybe with only 1 limit. But I can't seem to find the right path for it.
Like doing it similar to how pillagers spawn.
