Description

When following the documentation to run the example with a local version of the SDK, an error occurs when running make.

Expectation

It should be possible to run the example with a local unpublished version of the SDK

Reproduction

Update the example build.gradle as shown in the example README:

dependencies {
    // implementation("dev.openfga:openfga-sdk:0.4.+")
    implementation project(path: ':')

    // ...etc
}

Run make, and observe the error:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Circular dependency between the following tasks:
:classes
\--- :compileJava
     +--- :compileKotlin
     |    \--- :jar
     |         +--- :classes (*)
     |         +--- :compileJava (*)
     |         \--- :compileKotlin (*)
     \--- :jar (*)

I don't know that trying to reference the SDK project is possible given that the repository is not organized as a gradle multi-project. I suspect the error is that the implementation project(path: ':') is adding a dependency to itself (: path is the project root). Even a hard-coded path will fail because the example project is not associated with the SDK project.

It may be easiest to update the documentation to publish the SDK to the local maven repository, and then use the mavenLocal repository.
