No. We let the spring boot plugin handle all of that
Is there a way to specify the spring cloud version and let the spring boot version be brought in transitively?
No, you have to specify both versions
You can pretty easily create a gradle plugin that does this. I use one (sadly not FOSS) that wires in all the spring boot and spring cloud bits. It's very handy for managing a fleet of microservices. But I agree that such functionality is outside the scope of Spring Cloud itself.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I wish there was a spring-cloud-starter-parent equivalent on the gradle side.
Describe the solution you'd like There could be a spring-cloud-gradle-plugin that sets up the spring-cloud-dependencies and brings in the correct spring-boot-gradle-plugin version.
Describe alternatives you've considered I could just continue to set both versions and make sure to check the docs to make sure they are compatible with each other.
