I am pleased to announce that Gradle dependency management plugin 0.6.0.RELEASE is now available from Maven Central, JCenter, and the Gradle Plugin Portal.

Gradle 3.0 compatibility

This new release is compatible with Gradle 3.0. At the time of writing it's tested against 3.0 M2 and the 0.6.x line will continue to track Gradle 3.0 development to maintain compatibility if at all possible.

Finer control over bom property overrides

Previously, an imported bom's properties could be overridden using project properties. This new release adds support for overriding a property as part of the import. bomProperty can be used to override properties one at a time (and can be used multiple times to override multiple properties):

dependencyManagement {
    imports {
        mavenBom('com.example:example-bom:1.2.0') {
            bomProperty 'foo.version', '1.1.1'
            bomProperty 'bar.version', '2.0.3'
        }
    }
}

Alternatively, bomProperties can be used along with a map of property overrides:

dependencyManagement {
    imports {
        mavenBom('com.example:example-bom:1.2.0') {
            bomProperties([
                'foo.version': '1.1.1',
                'bar.version': '2.0.3'
            ])
        }
    }
}
