Introduction

A android scaffold project for publish android library to maven center.

Why create this project

In 2023 years, publishing a android library is very simple. However, I mean it in the case if you use environment of gradle and gradle-plugin above 7.0. When you use gradle below 7.0 and gradle-plugin below 4.2.2. The situation is totally different.

Main different points in list there:

1. The setting.gradle file play different role in gradle version above 7.0 and below 7.0.

• In gradle version greater than 7.0, setting.gradle file will include some modules and manage dependency repository.
• In gradle version litter than 7.0, setting.gradle file only include modules, the dependency repository script will be written in build.gradle file.

2. Build artifact generate

• In Version above 7.0 will auto generator build artifct, you only need to include the release artifact. It will include source code, doc file, resource file, etc.
• In version below 7.0 you need to generate buld artifact by write task, then include the task in script.

Reference

Publish configuration mostly reference from android-gpuimage project. It's build.gradle file location is there. If you want to publish library on old gradle and gradle-plugin version, you could refer this project carefully.
