How can I add a dependency ?

[GloriousAlpaca]

Hello,

 

I am trying to add a Discord Api Library to my mod, however I am not able to achieve that!

 

I have tried this:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven { url = "https://files.minecraftforge.net/maven" }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'net.minecraftforge.gradle:ForgeGradle:2.3-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'net.minecraftforge.gradle.forge'
//Only edit below this line, the above code adds and enables the necessary things for Forge to be setup.


version = "1.0"
group = "mod.minebot" // http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-naming-conventions.html
archivesBaseName = "minebot"

sourceCompatibility = targetCompatibility = '1.8' // Need this here so eclipse task generates correctly.
compileJava {
    sourceCompatibility = targetCompatibility = '1.8'
}

minecraft {
    version = "1.12.2-14.23.5.2838"
    runDir = "run"
    
    // the mappings can be changed at any time, and must be in the following format.
    // snapshot_YYYYMMDD   snapshot are built nightly.
    // stable_#            stables are built at the discretion of the MCP team.
    // Use non-default mappings at your own risk. they may not always work.
    // simply re-run your setup task after changing the mappings to update your workspace.
    mappings = "snapshot_20171003"
    // makeObfSourceJar = false // an Srg named sources jar is made by default. uncomment this to disable.
}

dependencies {

    implementation 'net.dv8tion:JDA:3.8.3_463'

}

processResources {
    // this will ensure that this task is redone when the versions change.
    inputs.property "version", project.version
    inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

    // replace stuff in mcmod.info, nothing else
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include 'mcmod.info'
                
        // replace version and mcversion
        expand 'version':project.version, 'mcversion':project.minecraft.version
    }
        
    // copy everything else except the mcmod.info
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        exclude 'mcmod.info'
    }
}

 

As is specified on the github page of the library:
https://github.com/DV8FromTheWorld/JDA/releases/tag/v3.8.3

 

But sadly I get this Error when I try to build:

Thank you for your help!

Never mind I think I have gotten it to work with this:

    repositories {

apply plugin: 'net.minecraftforge.gradle.forge'
//Only edit below this line, the above code adds and enables the necessary things for Forge to be setup.

    // makeObfSourceJar = false // an Srg named sources jar is made by default. uncomment this to disable.
}

    compile.extendsFrom(embed)

// Add dependencies

    // This dependency and its transitive deps will be embedded

    from configurations.embed.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it) }
}

    inputs.property "version", project.version
    inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

    // replace stuff in mcmod.info, nothing else

Well actually that doesn't work either.
Bump ?

[GloriousAlpaca]

Thank you!
How should I put the jar in

 /META-INF/libraries/

?

[GloriousAlpaca]

Thank you very much for your continued help!
