----------------------------------
Summary: Support for Gradle Module Metadata in install task
Key: IVY-1622
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1622
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.5.0
Reporter: Björn Kautler
Gradle since some time introduced its own metadata file for artifacts, as poms
were simply not rich enough and not extensible.
How it works is, that in the pom or ivy file a reference to the metadata file
is present. If the resolver of Gradle finds this reference, it uses the
metadata file.
We use the Ivy install task to assemble an internal Ivy repository from public
Maven or ivy repositories. But this means, that the Gradle module metadata is
lost which is a real pity.
It would be nice if the Ivy install task could translate this reference to the
produced ivy file and if found also download the module metadata file.
