I'm publishing an SDK composed of different modules to Artifactory, using gradle's publications and the Artifactory plugin.
Everything is published and the modules are all grouped in a build with the name and the version that I have specified in the gradle.property file:
buildInfo.build.name=test.buildname
buildInfo.build.number=0.1.3
The problem is that the modules are all published with the default name = module name and with not version and no dependencies at least what Artifactory shows me for the moduleid;number of artifacts; dependencies is something like this:
my-real-project-name:FullModuleName:unspecified; 2; 0
Here a snippet of the grade file for publishing (it is applied to each the build.gradle scripts for all the module:
apply from: "../../versioning.gradle"
apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
apply plugin: 'com.jfrog.artifactory'
publishing {
publications {
modulePublications(MavenPublication) {
artifact("$buildDir/outputs/aar/$archivesBaseName-release.aar")
groupId 'com.mygroup'
version '0.1.2'
artifactId shortName
println "shortName=$shortName"
pom.withXml {
def dependenciesNode = asNode().appendNode('dependencies')
configurations.implementation.allDependencies.each {
println "dependency=$it"
def dependencyNode = dependenciesNode.appendNode('dependency')
dependencyNode.appendNode('groupId', it.group)
dependencyNode.appendNode('artifactId', it.name)
dependencyNode.appendNode('version', it.version)
}
}
}
}
}
artifactory {
contextUrl = "${artifactory_contextUrl}"
publish {
repository {
repoKey = 'gradle-dev-local'
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
}
defaults {
publications('modulePublications')
properties = ['dev.team': 'android-sdk']
publishArtifacts = true
publishPom = true
}
}
resolve {
repository {
repoKey = 'gradle-dev'
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
maven = true
}
}
}
In the project level build.gradle file I have:
buildscript {
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
maven {
url 'http://localhost:8081/artifactory/gradle-dev'
credentials {
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
}
}
}
dependencies {
classpath "org.jfrog.buildinfo:build-info-extractor-gradle:4.15.2"
}
}
artifactory {
contextUrl = "${artifactory_contextUrl}"
publish {
repository {
repoKey = 'gradle-dev-local'
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
maven = true
}
}
resolve {
repository {
repoKey = 'gradle-dev'
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
maven = true
}
}
}
After I publish I see a build-info.json file created in the build folder:
{

"name" : "test.buildname",

}
Please notice the "id" : "projectname-android-sdk.sdk:ModuleName1:unspecified" that is what I see on Artifactory.
projectname-android-sdk is the name of the project, .sdk comes from the fact that each module is in a subfolder, of the project's root folder, called sdk. ModuleName1 is the name of one of the modules.
I have partially fixed the issue: I was not clearing the build before calling Artifactory and I was pushing old builds. I thought that I was labelling the aar and that it wasn't important to build them again.
Now I'm calling:
./gradlew clean assembleDebug
./gradlew artifactoryPublish
Now that I'm building again, I get a new build-info.json with the things I was expecting.
I have also googled what a Build is on Artifactory and I found this. I can summarise saying that I had confused the info about the build with the info about the published artifacts.
When I call ./gradlew artifactoryPublish at the end I see:
[pool-79-thread-1] Deploying artifact: https://justatest4artifactory.jfrog.io/artifactory/gradle-dev-local/com/mygroup/ModuleName1/0.1.3/Nickname1-0.1.2.aar
where 0.1.3 is the buildInfo.build.number and 0.1.2 is the version of the artifact.
