[SOLVED] [1.14.4] build.gradle "Could not find method compile()"

[Simon_kungen]

Hi

 

Whenever I try and add a mod to the source the build instantly crashes.

 

...

dependencies {
    classpath group: 'net.minecraftforge.gradle', name: 'ForgeGradle', version: '3.+', changing: true



    compile "mezz.jei:jei-${mc_version}:${jei_version}"

...

 

It has been like for a while, but because I didn't necessarily need that mod I just didn't bother with it. But now I need to add some other mods I would like to use, such as Curios API.

Even the suggested examples don't seem to work either: compile 'com.mod-buildcraft:buildcraft:6.0.8:dev'

compile has been replaced by implementation, you are using such a new gradle version that the old way is no longer supported.

So, should I downgrade to a lower version of Gradle? Or can I use my current version with some changes, and what should that be? I thought I might be able to just replace compile with implementation, but it doesn't seem to be that easy as my IDE doesn't recognize that either.

Actually I just noticed you tried to add JEI to the buildscript dependencies. That makes no sense.

Expand  

Ok, how would I for example just add JEI as a regular mod to the runtime and then add Curios API as a dependency?

[DaemonUmbra]

I was going to say it goes where you see the examples for such, but for some reason those examples have been copied into the buildscript block, are you following a tutorial?

[Simon_kungen]

How do I add it to the client in order for me to use it?

Nope, I just took that from the Forge SDK.

[DaemonUmbra]

So what you're saying is you copied these lines into the buildscript block despite this line saying not to mess with the lines above? Why?

Ok, I missed that comment. Sorry about that. So should I add the dependencies somewhere else?

So I got a different error message this time around:

You still have the JEI maven in your buildscript repositories block

[Simon_kungen]

Alright, looks like it loads the mod into the game now. It crashes on world load, but that is out of scope for this and is more likely an issue on JEI's end on the looks of things.
