This is a small "plugin" to simplify the use of maven-publish Gradle plugin. You can use this plugin for Java Library and Android Library.

• Usage
• Customization
  • Generic Project Info
  • Repositories
  • Example of per-module costumization
• Library Publish
• Generate POM file

In order to use GradleMavenizer you have to add the line

apply from: 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sky-uk/gradle-maven-plugin/master/gradle-mavenizer.gradle'

at the very bottom of the build.gradle file. Alternatively, to use a specific release version, add this property to the project (see Releases at the top of the Github page for released versions):

mavPluginVersion = '1.0.3'

and add this line to the very bottom of the build.gradle file:

apply from: "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sky-uk/gradle-maven-plugin/${project.mavPluginVersion}/gradle-mavenizer.gradle"`

GradleMavenizer is highly customizable.

You can customize it adding some properties to the root project build.gradle or to the module build.gradle file.

Attention: If you add the same property to the root project file and to the module file, in order of priority, the module file property will override the root project property.

• mavProjectName -> String property -> Identify the project name (can be different from the artifactId)
• mavLibraryDescription -> String property -> A simple description for the library
• mavDevelopers -> Map property -> A map with the ids and the developer name of the library
• mavLibraryLicenses -> Map property -> A map with the name and the urls of the library licenses
• mavSiteUrl -> String property -> Identify the url of the project website
• mavGitUrl -> String property ->Identify the url of the project github page

• Remote repository:

  • mavPublishToRemoteRepo -> Boolean property -> Allow the script to load your library to a remote repo
  • mavRemoteRepoUser -> String property -> Username to grant access to the remote repo
  • mavRemoteRepoPassword -> String property -> Password to grant access to the remote repo
  • mavRepoRemoteUrl -> String property -> Identify the url of the remote repo

• Internal repository:

  • mavPublishToInternalRepo -> Boolean property -> Allow the script to load your library to an internal repo
  • mavRepoInternalUrl -> String property -> Identify the url of the internal repo

• MavenLocal repository:

  • mavPublishToMavenLocal -> Boolean property -> Allow the script to load your library to MavenLocal folder

Attention: If you won't set any repository automatically the script will use MavenLocal as default repo

project.ext {
    mavDevelopers = ["Fe":"Federico"]
    mavSiteUrl = "https://github.com/sky-uk/gradle-maven-plugin"
    mavGitUrl = mavSiteUrl + '.git'
    mavProjectName = 'GradleMavenizer'
    mavPublishToInternalRepo = true
    mavRepoInternalUrl = "path/to/internal/repo"
    mavLibraryLicenses = ["Apache-2.0":'http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt']
    mavLibraryDescription = "A simple description of the project"
}

To finally publish you library you can use the command ./gradlew publish directly from your project root folder.

You can also pass some properties directly from command line using the command -P (every property must have -P before), for example: ./gradlew publish -PmavPublishToMavenLocal=true

If you want to generate the POM file without publish your library you can use the command ./gradlew generatePomFileForMavenPublishPublication directly from your project root folder.

To generate the POM file only for one module of your library you can use the command ./gradlew your-module-name:generatePomFileForMavenPublishPublication where you have to replace your-module-name with the name you chose for your module.

Note: POM file will be saved in build/publications/mavenPublish/ as pom-default.xml
