Usage

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.

Customization

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.

1. Generic Project Info (included in POM)

mavProjectName -> String property -> Identify the project name (can be different from the artifactId)
mavLibraryDescription -> String property -> A simple description for the library
mavVersion -> String property -> The version of 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

2. Repositories

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

Example of per-module build.gradle costumization

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"
    mavVersion = "1.0"
}

Library Publish

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
