+/**
+    Maven Resolution Strategy
+    =========================
+
+    Description:
+
+    Adds ability to set Maven-like conflict resolution strategy for any configuration
+
+    | Maven works on the principle of nearest wins strategy while resolving the dependency
+    | conflicts, that means whichever version it finds nearer in the tree, it will take
+    | that version and ignore the other versions.
+    | [http://techidiocy.com/maven-dependency-version-conflict-problem-and-resolution/]
+
+    Usage:
+
+    1. Type `maven()` inside `resolutionStrategy` closure param
+
+    Example (apply to all configuration):
+
+        configurations.all.resolutionStrategy { maven() }
+
+    Example (apply to compile configuration):
+
+        configuration.compile.resolutionStrategy { maven() }
+ */
+project.configurations.all {
+    resolutionStrategy.extensions.add "maven", {
+        def versionMap = new HashMap()
+        resolutionStrategy.eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
+            def moduleId = "${details.requested.group}:${details.requested.name}" as String
+            if (!versionMap.containsKey(moduleId)) {
+                versionMap[moduleId] = details.requested.version
+            } else {
+                details.useVersion versionMap[moduleId]
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
