I am using Gradle 4.1 with Gradle-Android plugin 3.0.1 on Android Studio 3.2
I have 2 flavors 'production' and 'staging' and I am unable to build my project as a library with different build variants.
app build.gradle:
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
apply plugin: 'com.github.dcendents.android-maven'
android {
...
productFlavors {
production {
}
staging {
}
}
defaultPublishConfig "productionRelease"
publishNonDefault true
}
if( android.productFlavors.size() > 0 ) {
android.libraryVariants.all { variant ->
if( android.publishNonDefault && variant.name == android.defaultPublishConfig ) {
def bundleTask = tasks["bundle${name.capitalize()}"]
artifacts {
archives(bundleTask.archivePath) {
classifier name.replace('-' + variant.name, '')
builtBy bundleTask
name name.replace('-' + variant.name, '')
}
}
}
...
Then I run: ./gradlew clean install, errors I got is:
Execution failed for task ‘:app:install’.
Could not publish configuration ‘archives’
A POM cannot have multiple artifacts with the same type and classifier. Already have MavenArtifact app:aar:aar:null, trying to add MavenArtifact app:aar:aar:null.
And to get this code to compile, I need to swap android.publishNonDefault with true, otherwise I will get an error of: Cannot get the value of write-only property 'publishNonDefault'
Any suggestions or hint would be really helpful, the aim is to build the library module on jitpack, where we can import it in project with build variants. thanks!
After digging into this for 2 days, and emailing Jitpack support, the issue is because the lib has updated and publishNonDefault is deprecated. you just need to change your app build.gradle to:
apply plugin: 'com.github.dcendents.android-maven'
dependencies {...}
group = 'com.github.your-group'
if (android.productFlavors.size() > 0) {
android.libraryVariants.all { variant ->
if (variant.name.toLowerCase().contains("debug")) {
return
}
def bundleTask = tasks["bundle${variant.name.capitalize()}"]
artifacts {
archives(bundleTask.archivePath) {
classifier variant.flavorName
builtBy bundleTask
name = project.name
}
}
}
}
problem was to create multiple flavors using jitpack
so what I do is, create a variable which stores the flavor name, after that loop through the available variant, pass the flavorBuild to artifact so when u push the code to GitHub and create artifact via jitpack then jitpack create the required implementation based on your build flavor and then u can use it. You need to just change build flavor
publishing {
publications {
def flavorBuild ='production'
android.libraryVariants.all { variant ->
"maven${variant.name.capitalize()}Aar"(MavenPublication) {
from components.findByName("android${variant.name.capitalize()}")
groupId = 'com.examplesdk'
artifactId = 'examplesdk'
version "1.0.0-${variant.name}"
artifact "$buildDir/outputs/aar/examplesdk-${flavorBuild}-release.aar"
pom.withXml {
def dependenciesNode = asNode().appendNode('dependencies')
configurations.api.allDependencies.each { dependency ->
def dependencyNode = dependenciesNode.appendNode('dependency')
dependencyNode.appendNode('groupId', dependency.group)
dependencyNode.appendNode('artifactId', dependency.name)
dependencyNode.appendNode('version', dependency.version)
}
}
}
}
}
repositories{
maven {
url "$buildDir/repo"
}
}
}
I am trying to write a Gradle Plugin that runs Checkstyle over all the source code of a specific Android app, including all the variants and all the library modules that the app is using and generate a single report without duplicate errors. Currently I am able to run it through all the variants successfully and generate a report without duplications, but I have no idea how to get the list of modules that the app is using.
So, basically, if I have a project with this structure:
MyProject
+-MyAppFoo
+-MyAppBar
+-FeatureA
+-FeatureB
+-FeatureC
+-Core
And the app MyAppFoo has dependencies on the modules FeatureA and FeatureC and FeatureA depends on Core I would like to be able to access the project instance of FeatureA, Core and FeatureC to get their sources and classpaths.
My current code looks like this and I am applying it directly to only one app module of the project (eg. MyAppFoo):
apply plugin: 'checkstyle'
afterEvaluate {
def variants
if (project.plugins.hasPlugin('com.android.application')) {
variants = android.applicationVariants
} else if (project.plugins.hasPlugin('com.android.library')) {
variants = android.libraryVariants
} else {
return
}
def dependsOn = []
def classpath
def source
variants.all { variant ->
dependsOn << variant.javaCompiler
if (!source) {
source = variant.javaCompiler.source.filter { p ->
return p.getPath().contains("${project.projectDir}/src/main/")
}
}
source += variant.javaCompiler.source.filter { p ->
return !p.getPath().contains("${project.projectDir}/src/main/")
}
if (!classpath) {
classpath = project.fileTree(variant.javaCompiler.destinationDir)
} else {
classpath += project.fileTree(variant.javaCompiler.destinationDir)
}
}
def checkstyle = project.tasks.create "checkstyle", Checkstyle
checkstyle.group = "Verification"
checkstyle.dependsOn dependsOn
checkstyle.source source
checkstyle.classpath = classpath
checkstyle.exclude('**/BuildConfig.java')
checkstyle.exclude('**/R.java')
checkstyle.exclude('**/BR.java')
checkstyle.showViolations true
project.tasks.getByName("check").dependsOn checkstyle
}
What I would like to have is a list of projects containing only the modules that my MyAppFoo is using, this whay when I run gradle :MyAppFoo:checkstyle I want to run it on the modules MyAppFoo, FeatureA, Core and FeatureC.
I am trying to configure an Android project combining multiple product flavors with flavor dimensions.
Here is a snippet of build.gradle
android {
...
flavorDimensions "vendor", "type"
productFlavors {
development {
dimension "vendor"
}
production {
dimension "vendor"
}
free {
dimension "type"
}
paid {
dimension "type"
}
}
...
}
I am using a google service where I need to have the google-services.json file and I would like to have a different file for each vendor, one for development and another for production.
So I have one google-services.json in app/src/development and another in app/src/production.
When building the I get this error:
File google-services.json is missing. The Google Services Plugin cannot function without it.
Searched Location:
<path>/app/src/developmentPaid/debug/google-services.json
<path>/app/src/debug/developmentPaid/google-services.json
<path>/app/src/developmentPaid/google-services.json
<path>/app/src/debug/google-services.json
<path>/app/google-services.json
From the error I need to have the same google-services.json in app/src/developmentFree and app/src/developmentPaid and another in app/src/productionFree and app/src/productionPaid.
Do I need to have the same file in both places when using flavor dimensions?
Edit:
I end up by solving this issue with a couple of extra tasks for each merged productFlavor. I added this code after android :
afterEvaluate {
android.productFlavors.all { flavor ->
if (flavor.dimension == "vendor") {
task("copy${flavor.name.capitalize()}GoogleServicesFile", type: Copy) {
description = 'Switches to google-services.json depending on flavor'
from "src/${flavor.name}"
include "google-services.json"
into "."
}
task("delete${flavor.name.capitalize()}GoogleServicesFile", type: Delete) {
description = 'Delete google-services.json from base folder'
delete "./google-services.json"
}
}
}
android.applicationVariants.all { variant ->
def buildType = variant.buildType.name.capitalize()
def typeFlavorName = variant.productFlavors.get(0).name.capitalize()
def vendorFlavorName = variant.productFlavors.get(1).name.capitalize()
def copyFileTaskName = "copy${vendorFlavorName}GoogleServicesFile"
def deleteFileTaskName = "delete${vendorFlavorName}GoogleServicesFile"
def processGoogleServicesTaskName = "process${typeFlavorName}${vendorFlavorName}${buildType}GoogleServices"
tasks."${processGoogleServicesTaskName}".dependsOn "${copyFileTaskName}"
tasks."${processGoogleServicesTaskName}".finalizedBy "${deleteFileTaskName}"
}
}
This way, for each typeFlavorName, vendorFlavorName and buildType variation, the google-services.json file is copied to app/ before process{typeFlavorName}{vendorFlavorName}{buildType}GoogleServices and deleted afterwards.

I've juste added some flavors (or productFlavors if you want) to my project.
The fact is that when I publish the library to bintray, all flavors are uploaded (which is great), but I'm unable to use them. The plugin used is the official one here.
The uploaded aar:
androidsdk-0.0.4-fullRelease.aar
androidsdk-0.0.4-fullDebug.aar
androidsdk-0.0.4-lightRelease.aar
androidsdk-0.0.4-lightDebug.aar
As you noted, the fullRelease is named as the classifier, see doc chapter 23.4.1.3.
I am searching for a solution to choose which flavors that I want to upload.
I've already looked at bintray examples (here and here) and this, with also other examples but I'm still stuck.
Here is my current script:
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
apply plugin: 'com.github.dcendents.android-maven'
apply plugin: 'com.jfrog.bintray'
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.1"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 9
targetSdkVersion 23
versionCode 64
versionName "0.0.4"
}
publishNonDefault true
productFlavors {
full {
}
light {
}
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.1.1'
fullCompile 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.5.0'
}
version = android.defaultConfig.versionName
uploadArchives {
repositories.mavenDeployer {
pom.project {
packaging 'aar'
}
}
}
////////////////////////////////
// Bintray Upload configuration
Properties properties = new Properties()
properties.load(project.rootProject.file('local.properties').newDataInputStream())
bintray {
user = properties.getProperty("bintray.user")
key = properties.getProperty("bintray.apikey")
configurations = ['archives']
pkg {
repo = "MyRepo" // repo name
userOrg = 'hugo'
name = "AndroidSDK" // Package name
websiteUrl = siteUrl
vcsUrl = gitUrl
publish = true
}
}
To import the library I'm currently using this:
compile ('com.example.lib:sdk:0.0.8:fullRelease#aar') {
transitive = true;
}
I faced the same challenge, and here's the best I could make yet:
Using mavenPublications and the gradle maven-publish plugin along the bintray plugin, you can publish any variant to mavenLocal and bintray.
Here's the publish.gradle file I apply at the end of all my project's library modules I want to publish:
def pomConfig = {

*/
def variantArtifactId = flavored ? variant.flavorName.replace('_', '-') : project.name
/**

*
* Yes, tricky.

*/
def javaDocDestDir = file("${buildDir}/docs/javadoc ${flavored ? variantArtifactId : ""}")
/**

it.javaDirectories // Also includes kotlin sources if any.
}
def javadoc = task("${variant.name}Javadoc", type: Javadoc) {

// but I didn't find any working alternative. Please, tweet #Louis_CAD if you find one.

withXml {
def root = asNode()
root.appendNode("name", 'Splitties')
root.appendNode("url", siteUrl)
root.children().last() + pomConfig

def addDep = {
if (it.group == null) return // Avoid empty dependency nodes

// Add flavor specific deps
if (flavored) {

}
// NOTE: This library doesn't use builtTypes specific dependencies, so no need to add them.
}
}
}
}
}
group = groupId
version = libraryVersion
afterEvaluate {
bintray {
user = bintray_user
key = bintray_api_key
publications = publicationNames
override = true
pkg {
repo = 'splitties'
name = project.name
desc = libraryDesc
websiteUrl = siteUrl
issueTrackerUrl = 'https://github.com/LouisCAD/Splitties/issues'
vcsUrl = gitUrl
licenses = ['Apache-2.0']
labels = ['aar', 'android']
publicDownloadNumbers = true
githubRepo = 'LouisCAD/Splitties'
}
}
}
In order for this to work, I need to have the bintray_user and bintray_api_key properties defined. I personally just have them in my ~/.gradle/gradle.properties file like this:
bintray_user=my_bintray_user_name
bintray_api_key=my_private_bintray_api_key
I also need to define the following ext properties I used in the publish.gradle file in my root project's build.gradle file:
allprojects {
...
ext {
...
// Libraries
groupId = "xyz.louiscad.splitties"
libraryVersion = "1.2.1"
siteUrl = 'https://github.com/LouisCAD/Splitties'
gitUrl = 'https://github.com/LouisCAD/Splitties.git'
}
}
And now, I can finally use it in my android library module, where I have multiple productFlavors. Here's a snippet from a publishable library module's build.gradle file:
plugins {
id "com.jfrog.bintray" version "1.7.3" // Enables publishing to bintray
id "com.github.dcendents.android-maven" version "1.5" // Allows aar in mavenPublications
}
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
apply plugin: 'maven-publish' // Used for mavenPublications
android {
...
defaultPublishConfig "myLibraryDebug" // Allows using this library in another
// module in this project without publishing to mavenLocal or Bintray.
// Useful for debug purposes, or for your library's sample app.
defaultConfig {
...
versionName libraryVersion
...
}
...
productFlavors {
myLibrary
myLibrary_logged // Here, the "_" will be replaced "-" in artifactId when publishing.
myOtherLibraryFlavor
}
...
}
dependencies {
...
// Timber, a log utility.
myLibrary_loggedCompile "com.jakewharton.timber:timber:${timberVersion}"; // Just an example
}
...
ext {
libraryDesc = "Delegates for kotlin on android that check UI thread"
}
apply from: '../publish.gradle' // Makes this library publishable
When you have all of this setup properly, with the name of your library instead of mine's (which you can use as an example), you can try publishing a version of your flavored library by trying to first publishing to mavenLocal.
To do so, run this command:
myLibrary $ ../gradlew publishToMavenLocal
You can then try adding mavenLocal in your app's repositories (example here) and try adding your library as a dependency (artifactId should be the flavor name, with "_" replaced with "-") and building it.
You can also check with your file explorer (use cmd+shift+G on Mac in Finder to access hidden folder) the directory ~/.m2 and look for your library.
When it's time to publish to bintray/jcenter, you just have to run this command:
myLibrary $ ../gradlew bintrayUpload
Important:
Before you publish your library to mavenLocal, Bintray or another maven repository, you'll usually want to try your library against a sample app which uses the library. This sample app, which should be another module in the same project just need to have the project dependency, which should look like this: compile project(':myLibrary'). However, since your library has multiple productFlavors, you'll want to test all of them. Unfortunately, it's currently impossible to specify which configuration you want to use from your sample app's build.gradle file (unless, you use publishNonDefault true in your library's build.gradle file, which breaks maven and bintray publications), but you can specify the default configuration (i.e. buildVariant) in your library's module as such: defaultPublishConfig "myLibraryDebug" in the android closure. You can see the available build variants for your library in the "Build Variants" tool Windows in Android Studio.
Feel free to explore my library "Splitties" here if you need an example. The flavored module is named concurrency, but I use my script for unflavored library modules too, and I tested it throughly on all the library modules in my project.
You can reach me out if you need help setting it up for you.
The setup:
buildTypes {
debug {
}
release {
}
}
publishNonDefault true
The fix:
defaultPublishConfig 'release'
// Fix for defaultPublishConfig not working as expected
// ref: https://github.com/dcendents/android-maven-gradle-plugin/issues/11
libraryVariants.all { variant ->
if( publishNonDefault && variant.name == defaultPublishConfig ) {
def bundleTask = tasks["bundle${variant.name.capitalize()}"]
artifacts {
archives(bundleTask.archivePath) {
classifier null //necessary to get rid of the suffix in the artifact
builtBy bundleTask
name name.replace('-' + variant.name, '')//necessary to get rid of the suffix from the folder name
}
}
}
}
This fix will still publish all the artifacts, but it will publish a default artifact without the flavour suffix, which is enough to make it all work.
The fix to upload only the default artifact would be this (if the bintray plugin knew what POM filters are):
install {
repositories.mavenInstaller {
/*
POM filters can be used to block artifacts from certain build variants.
However, Bintray does not respect POM filters, therefore this only works for maven deploy plugin.
Also, bintray crashes with named filters, since it always expects a /build/pom/pom-default.xml,
which does not happen with named filters.
*/
filter { artifact, file ->
// this how the default classifier is identified in case the defaultPublishConfig fix is applied
artifact.attributes.classifier == null
}
}
}
I didn't try it so I will delete the answer if it doesn't resolve the issue.
You should post a different artifact for each flavor (or build variant if you prefer).
In this way you will have in jcenter x artifacts, each of them with a pom file.
Something like:
groupId
|--library-full
|----.pom
|----.aar
|--library-light
|----.pom
|----.aar
In your top level file you can define
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
project.ext {
groupId="xxx"
libraryName = ""
......
}
}
Then in your library module:
productFlavors {
full {
project.ext.set("libraryName", "library-full");
}
light {
project.ext.set("libraryName", "library-light");
}
}
bintray {
//...
pkg {
//...Do the same for other variables
name = project.ext.libraryName
}
}
Finally make sure to publish only the release build type (why also the debug version?)
If someone is still stuck with this problem here's what worked for me -
Let's say you want to publish the release build for your flavour1 add this to your build.gradle
android {
...
defaultPublishConfig "flavour1Release"
}
Remove publishNonDefault true if it is present in your gradle file.
Add this inside the bintray block like this
bintray {
...
archivesBaseName = 'YOUR_ARTIFACT_ID'
...
}
Then just run the bintrayUpload task as you would.
The defaultPublishConfig will have to be changed everytime you need to publish a new flavour.
It sounds like you don't want the classifier in the filename. It looks like the classifier is the same as the generated library file name. Have you tried giving them the same filename but outputting them to separate directories?
E.g. in the android scope:
libraryVariants.all { variant ->
variant.outputs.each { output ->
def outputFile = output.outputFile
if (outputFile != null && outputFile.name.endsWith('.aar')) {
def fileName = "same_name-${version}.aar"
output.outputFile = new File(outputFile.parent+"/${archivesBaseName}", fileName)
}
}
}
I have this script that works fine if defined in each module, but If I want to either move it to the root build.gradle or put it in a separate file so it can be reused in all the modules is not working correctly.
publishing {
publications {
aar(MavenPublication) {
groupId packageName
version = libraryVersion
artifactId project.getName()
artifact("$buildDir/outputs/aar/${project.getName()}-release.aar")
pom.withXml {
def dependencies = asNode().appendNode('dependencies')
configurations.getByName("_releaseCompile").getResolvedConfiguration().getFirstLevelModuleDependencies().each {
def dependency = dependencies.appendNode('dependency')
dependency.appendNode('groupId', it.moduleGroup)
dependency.appendNode('artifactId', it.moduleName)
dependency.appendNode('version', it.moduleVersion)
}
}
}
}
}
It requires to define these variables in each module
def packageName = 'com.example.test'
def libraryVersion = '1.0'
So what happens if when I moved the script to make it global , it never finds these variables on each of the modules.
So I tried something like this
def getLibraryVersion() {
return module.hasProperty('libraryVersion') ? libraryVersion : "1.0.0"
}
But its not picking up the correct value defined in the modules.
Any idea of what's going on??
From your top build.gradle, put the code inside of a subprojects { } closure.
The project specific variables can be referenced in your global script with:
ext.MyProjectVar
And defined in each subproject:
ext.MyProjectVar = 'some value'
