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.
