java - Global gradle proxy settings?

Question

Is there any way to simply set up a global, system-wide proxy for gradle?

Yes, I know there is a systemProp.http.proxyHost, ...etc settings in the current gradle.properties file, but it works only in the actual project. But

• I won't set it up in every gradle project
• and I won't change the source code of a project because of my local network configuration.

So, is there any "global gradle.properties" file or so?

Answer 1

Yes it seems possible. See here, especially:

We can define a gradle.properties file and set the property in this file. We can place the file in our project directory or in the <USER_HOME>/.gradle directory. The properties defined in the property file in our home directory take precedence over the properties defined in the file in our project directory. As a bonus we can also define system properties in a gradle.properties file, we only have to prefix the property name with systemProp..

The gradle.properties files can be found at the following paths:

# windows gradle file
%userprofile%.gradlegradle.properties

# linux gradle file
~/.gradle/gradle.properties
