How to use provided scope for jar file in Gradle build?

Question

I need to use Amazon Maps and Amazon Messaging in my apps.

With gradle, I did not succeed in adding the Amazon dependencies with a \"provided\" scope as they need to

Answer 1

There's now a great plugin from Netflix, gradle-extra-configurations-plugin. It provides a provided and optional scope. No more manual plumbing necessary and also generates the required metadata when pubishing e.g to a maven repository.
