Gradle: specify appropriate repo for dependency

Question

I have several repos and a lot of dependencies. It is looks like this in build.gradle:

repositories {
    maven {url "A"}
    maven {url "B"}
}


dependencies {
    compile 'libA'
    compile 'libB'
    compile 'libC'
}

Is there is a way how can I specify that I will download libA from one repo (A) and libB and libC from another repo (B)?

Answer 1

There is no way to associate a dependency with a repository. The repositories will always be searched in their declared order.

Answer 2

As of Jan 2019 this is possible. Say you have a specific repo for oracle deps:

 maven {
    url 'https://artifactory.mycompany.com/somepath/oracle-binaries/'
    content {
        includeGroupByRegex "com\\.oracle.*"
    }
 }

Note: this requires at least Gradle 5.1
