Description

By publishing a BOM, developers would only need to add a single dependency to their projects, simplifying consumption and onboarding experience for developers who just want to use GCToolkit in their projects.

Proposal

Apache Maven:

<dependency>
   <groupId>com.microsoft.gctoolkit</groupId>
   <artifactId>gctoolkit-bom</artifactId>
   <version>2.0.4</version>
</dependency>

Gradle:

implementation 'com.microsoft.gctoolkit:gctoolkit-bom:2.0.4'

This artifacts would depend on:

  • gctoolkit-api
  • gctoolkit-parser
  • gctoolkit-vertx

Experienced developers would still be able, in the future, to consume only the API and/or the Parser, if so, they choose.

Research direction

Start by locating the project's Maven build and module declarations, then inspect how existing artifacts are published to Maven Central. Define the BOM artifact with gctoolkit-api, gctoolkit-parser, and gctoolkit-vertx as dependencies, and verify that the Maven and Gradle coordinates in the issue resolve to the published artifact.
