gradle plugin fails to build project

[benignbala]

I am not able to use the beta5 with gradle because gradle Could not find org.ysb33r.groovy:dsl:1.0-beta5. I am using jcenter() as well as a build script dependency. Please find the gradle stacktrace below. Thanks

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:
  A problem occurred configuring root project 'vfs'.

There is no artifact called org.ysb33r.groovy:dsl:1.0-beta5. It is called
org.ysb33r.groovy:groovy-vfs:1.0-beta5.

Try this little build script

buildscript {
  repositories {
    jcenter()
  }
}


plugins {
  id 'org.ysb33r.vfs' version '1.0-beta5'
}

Run it with gradle tasks -i -g FOO. Then run find FOO -name '*vfs*.jar and you should see the groovy-vfs jar has been downloaded.

You can also try

repositories {
  jcenter()
  maven {
      url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
    }
}

configurations {
  examples
}

dependencies {
  examples 'org.ysb33r.gradle:vfs-gradle-plugin:1.0-beta5'
}

and then run gradle dependencies to see if this resolves correctly for you.

It actually looks like the order of the repositories in the buildscript section matters. If I have the maven repo first and then the jcenter, it fails. If I swap the order, it works fine

This fails:

    repositories {
        maven {
                  url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
        }
        jcenter()
    } 

This works

    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven {
                  url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
        }
    }
