# DependencyCollector

@ManagedType
@NonExtensible
interface DependencyCollector(source)

A `DependencyCollector` is used as part of a dependencies block in the DSL. A collector implements a single dependency scope and exposes the declared dependencies on getDependencies.

To use a `DependencyCollector` as a source of dependencies, wire it to the appropriate org.gradle.api.artifacts.Configuration with fromDependencyCollector. Dependencies will be queried lazily.

Note: No mutations will be allowed after dependencies are read from a `DependencyCollector`.
