Library not on jitpack about jxinsta HOT 3 OPEN

I appreciate that you understood :)
1 : You need to add okhttp dependency since this time the jar is distributed locally as .jar file which don't include okhttp libs
2 : The reason the library is distributed manually is bcz, at that time, the jitpack was not working (see this and this) now it is working back again.

PS : The further release will be on jitpack.

I hope it was clear that I had nothing against you :)

I still don't understand the problem with creating a "fat" jar that includes the dependencies, which is how libraries are usually published..
Is that due to the fat jar's size?

_PS : The further release will be on jitpack.

Awesome! Can you please keep this on open and notify this issue once it's on jitpack?

Yeah, the reason that I did not create a fat jar is mainly because of size. One more reason not to do so is that it is generally good practice to give the user your library without transitive dependencies so he/she has full control over it.

Also, mostly developers will be using this library to create a client or API, which will already most probably include the okhttp dependencies. So re-including it in the .jar will be waste of space.
