Gradle equivalent to Maven's "copy-dependencies"?

Vote count:

0

In Maven-land, anytime I want to simply pull down the transitive dependencies for a particular POM file, I just open a shell, navigate to where the POM is located, and run:

mvn dependency:copy-dependencies

And boom, Maven creates a target/ directory inside the current one and places all the transitively-fetched JARs to that location.

I am now trying to make the switch over to Gradle, but Gradle doesn't seem to have the same feature. So I ask: Does Gradle have an equivalent to Maven's copy-dependencies? If so, can someone provide an example? If not, would other devs find this to be a worthwhile contribution to the Gradle community?
