maven dependencies hell

[mufumbo]

Hey guys,

I know that maven is a great tool and you really care about making this project really sweet.

Although, it's a problem when you use so many libraries to make an http call passing json:

[INFO] - com.sendgrid:sendgrid-java:jar:3.1.0:compile
[INFO] +- com.sendgrid:java-http-client:jar:2.3.4:compile
[INFO] | +- org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:jar:4.4.4:compile
[INFO] | +- org.mockito:mockito-core:jar:1.10.19:compile

[INFO] - (com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-annotations:jar:2.5.3:compile - omitted for conflict with 2.6.4)

This conflicts the hell out with spring, for example. Now I am wasting a lot of time trying to solve this.

Also, it seems you're packing test classes like "mockito" by mistake.

Can anyone fix this?

thanks

Hello @mufumbo,

I'm sorry to hear that you are going through this pain :(

Could you please help me duplicate this issue by describing step by step how you are installing?

Hello @mufumbo,

I have the exact same problem at the moment. Have you managed to solve this issue and give me some guides how to fix it for me?

Thanks in advance,

@thinkingserious Just quickly looking at the list

I'm wondering why org.mockito:mockito-core:jar:1.10.19 is marked compile rather than test.

I think Jackson would also be something that could have version ranges rather than a set version as it does conflict heavily with almost every other library that uses java

Thanks @sparksis,

We'll make those adjustments in the next release!

Please accept our thanks for your contribution by filling out this form :)
