How to use paperweight in plugin development env

[NeumimTo]

Does anybody has an example by hand how to use paperweight without gradle kotlin dsl?

In my env I do apply the plugin

id "io.papermc.paperweight.userdev" version "1.1.12"

But then using

dependencies {
        paperweightDevelopmentBundle("io.papermc.paper:dev-bundle:1.17.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT")

Fails

Im on gradle 7.2.0 and java 16

I have found few projects on github that seems to utilize paperweight for plugin dev into some extent, but all of these were using kotlin dsl.

I would like to make it work on gradle - groovy.

Groovy works fine, although as you seem to have figured out you need to manually add the dev bundle dependency instead of using the helper extension functions. The issue here is you are not actually using Gradle 7.2.

For future reference, GitHub issues is not a support forum, we prefer to use it for tracking actual issues, if you need more help with your build setup please ask in our Discord.
