I'm new to Gradle and bintray. I want to publish this project so it is readily available to Maven and SBT users. I am not the original author of this package; it appears to have been abandoned; I just want to publish the current HEAD.
~/.gradle/gradle.properties
is something like:
bintrayUser=mslinn
bintrayKey=blahblah
build.gradle
looks like this.:
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.jfrog.bintray.gradle:gradle-bintray-plugin:1.0'
}
}
apply plugin: 'com.jfrog.bintray'
allprojects {
apply plugin: 'idea'
group = 'org.jfrog.example.bintray.gradle'
version = '1.0'
}
subprojects {
apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
apply plugin: 'com.jfrog.bintray'
sourceCompatibility = 1.6
targetCompatibility = 1.6
dependencies {
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.7'
}
// custom tasks for creating source/javadoc jars
task sourcesJar(type: Jar, dependsOn: classes) {
classifier = 'sources'
from sourceSets.main.allSource
}
task javadocJar(type: Jar, dependsOn: javadoc) {
classifier = 'javadoc'
from javadoc.destinationDir
}
// add javadoc/source jar tasks as artifacts
artifacts {
archives sourcesJar //, javadocJar
}
repositories {
jcenter()
}
publishing {
publications {
mavenJava(MavenPublication) {
if (plugins.hasPlugin('war')) {
from components.web
} else {
from components.java
}
artifact sourcesJar {
classifier "sources"
}
artifact javadocJar {
classifier "javadoc"
}
}
}
}
bintray {
user = bintrayUser //this usually comes form gradle.properties file in ~/.gradle
key = bintrayKey //this usually comes form gradle.properties file in ~/.gradle
publications = ['mavenJava'] // see publications closure
pkg { //package will be created if does not exist
repo = 'Java-WebSocket'
// userOrg = 'myorg' // an optional organization name when the repo belongs to one of the user's orgs
name = 'Java-WebSocket'
desc = 'Current HEAD of abandoned project'
licenses = ['MIT']
labels = ['websocket', 'java']
}
}
}
task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
gradleVersion = '1.10'
}
Here is the problem:
$ gradle bintrayUpload
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* Where:
Build file '/var/work/experiments/websockets/Java-WebSocket/build.gradle' line: 3
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'Java-WebSocket'.
> Could not find method jcenter() for arguments [] on repository container.
* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.
BUILD FAILED
I'm looking for advice on how to solve the error message, and advice on any setup issues I am likely to encounter including this project into JCenter so the published bintray project is available to all.
Just to summarize the discussion in comments:
Gradle added jcenter()
shortcut in version 1.7. Any version prior to it will fail with this exception.
You can still work with jcenter by adding it as a normal maven repo:
repositories {
maven {
url "https://jcenter.bintray.com"
}
....
}
