Creating maven repository from Gradle dependencies (upload on local artifactory)

1)      Take back-up of $USER_HOME/.m2/repository  folder and perform 'gradle install'

>> gradle install

2)      ‘gradle install’ will build file ‘build/poms/pom-default.xml’ 
        Note: Skip the gradle install step, if you already have 'pom' file.

3)      To download the all the dependencies with the following  Maven command using ‘pom-default.xml’.  (Internet proxy settings must be correctly set in $USER_HOME/.m2/settings.xml )

>> mvn dependency:copy-dependencies -Dmdep.copyPom=true -Dmdep.useRepositoryLayout=true -Dmdep.addParentPoms=true

Note: Need maven-dependency-plugin:2.9 or above for “addParentPoms” to work.

4)      The entire dependency files will be downloaded in $USER_HOME/.m2/repository, which can be directly uploaded into the artifactory.
