Using the shaded JAR

The default java-driver-core JAR depends on a number of third party libraries. This can create conflicts if your application already uses other versions of those same dependencies.

To avoid this, we provide an alternative core artifact that shades Netty, Jackson and ESRI. To use it, replace the dependency to java-driver-core by:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.scylladb</groupId>
  <artifactId>java-driver-core-shaded</artifactId>
  <version>${driver.version}</version>
</dependency>

If you also use the query-builder, mapper or some other library that depends on java-driver-core, you need to remove its dependency to the non-shaded JAR:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.scylladb</groupId>
  <artifactId>java-driver-core-shaded</artifactId>
  <version>${driver.version}</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.scylladb</groupId>
  <artifactId>java-driver-query-builder</artifactId>
  <version>${driver.version}</version>
  <exclusions>
    <exclusion>
      <groupId>com.scylladb</groupId>
      <artifactId>java-driver-core</artifactId>
    </exclusion>
  </exclusions>
</dependency>

Notes:

  • the shading process works by moving the libraries under a different package name, and bundling them directly into the driver JAR. This should be transparent for client applications: the impacted dependencies are purely internal, their types are not surfaced in the driver's public API.

  • the driver is compatible with all Netty versions in the range [4.1.7, 4.2.0) (equal to or higher than 4.1.7, and lesser than 4.2.0). If you just need a specific version in that range, you can avoid the need for the shaded JAR by declaring an explicit dependency in your POM:

    <dependency>
  <groupId>com.scylladb</groupId>
  <artifactId>java-driver-core</artifactId>
  <version>${driver.version}</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
  <groupId>io.netty</groupId>
  <artifactId>netty-handler</artifactId>
  <version>4.1.39.Final</version>
</dependency>

    This only works with Netty: for Jackson and ESRI, only the exact version declared in the driver POM is supported.
