title: Using intelliJ with gradle OFFLINE for android development
body: <p>I'm going to be going away and will have long periods without internet connection.  I currently use IntelliJ with the android SDK to develop.  When I try to create a project with no internet connection, it gives me a gradle http error.</p>
  
  <p>I did some searching and downloaded the 1.8 zip from groovy's website, but can't get intellij to use it (zipped or unzipped).  </p>
  
  <p>I haven't been able to find a good guide to making this work so I'm seeing if anybody here can point me to one.  Thanks a ton in advance</p>
