Never said that I want to parse a gradle file. I want to parse a static file (maybe by using a gradle plugin) to get the static information (project description) as input for a gradle script (project build). The Gradle tooling API can be used to get this information by running a gradle script and not by parsing it.

In addition I think that it must be static

Why do you think that it's only related to first level dependecies? This should support transitive dependecies, too.
I think the benfit is that based on such a format an open source parser and dependency collector can be created that could be used by all build tool, IDE, etc. for example.

That is fine. I do not want to say that devs should not use Gradle ;) But if all the companies / tools would profide a standard for such a static metadata description and support it (by for example a Gradle plugin) a lot of thinks will be much easier for developers

Using Markdown or Asciidoc sounds interesting. Is there a way to provide documentation and metadata in that format? Only used it for documentation until now.

Yes, but to get information you need to execute the Gradle script. By using a static file in addition you do not need to execute any Script and can simple get the information by parsing the file

Hi,
I think JSON and YAML would be a good idea. Groovy DSL do not work since it must be executed to get all the information. JSON & YAML can be parsed
