Installation

Linux

Ubuntu

20.04 Focal Fossa

First make sure Java SE 8 or later is installed

sudo apt update
sudo apt install openjdk-11-jdk

Downloading Gradle

VERSION=6.6.1
wget "https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-${VERSION}-bin.zip" -P /tmp

Unzip into /opt/gradle

sudo unzip -d /opt/gradle /tmp/gradle-${VERSION}-bin.zip

Gradle is regularly updated with security patches and new features. To have more control over versions and updates, we’ll create a symbolic link named latest, which points to the Gradle installation directory:

sudo ln -s /opt/gradle/gradle-${VERSION} /opt/gradle/latest

Later, when upgrading Gradle, unpack the newer version and change the symlink to point to it.

Setting up the Environment Variables.

export GRADLE_HOME=/opt/gradle/latest
export PATH=${GRADLE_HOME}/bin:${PATH}

Check if Gradle is installed

gradle -v
