title: Use build.gradle for deployment
body: <p>I'm learning how to use gradle to build my java applications. Currently I'm using eclipse with buildship plugin. I have it building my JARs and WARs, and also have gradle running my JUnit and Selenium tests. I like that it pulls in the dependencies I need as I need them during development.</p>
  
  <p>It seems like it would make sense if my build.gradle files define my dependencies to build and run my application in dev then I should be able to use them for deployment. Otherwise I have to retrieve all my dependencies by some other means and deploy to my production environment, and managing 2 different methods of retrieving and deploying dependencies seems to be a risk for problems.</p>
  
  <p>Can I use gradle or at least my build.gradle files in some way for my deployment?</p>
