Add Maven support about android-switch-backport HOT 13 CLOSED

Done 20 days ago

from android-switch-backport.

Actually I think the request is that this library should be available on
Maven central. I'll look into it.

Yes, adding the dependency on maven central will be a great help.

On a side note:

I tried the following steps (which did not work) to get it added to my local repository

I cloned the project and ran the maven package goal. That gave me an .apklib file and a .jar file

I used the following command to deploy the apklib to my repo

mvn deploy:deploy-file -Durl=file:///tmp/mvn
-DrepositoryId={MY REPO ID}
-Dfile=android-switch-backport-1.0.apklib
-DgroupId=org.jraf
-DartifactId=android-switch-backport
-Dversion=1.0
-DgeneratePom=true
-Dpackaging=apklib

But it seems to not work.....

Any ideas in the meantime on what I am doing wrong?

Running mvn clean install will install it in your local repository.
If you want then to upload it to your company repository you can use the
pom and apklib located in your local rep.

Got it! Thanks.

I started the formalities to publish the artifact to Maven Central - waiting for their reply now. I'll keep you posted.

The artifact should now be available in Maven Central. Can you guys check that it works as expected? Thanks.

Anyone? :)

Just tried it out.

Using the dependency from the information available here : http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails|org.jraf|android-switch-backport|1.0|apklib results in the following error

Could not find artifact org.jraf:android-switch-backport:jar:1.0 in central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2) -> [Help 1]

I think the issue arises because dependency is an apklib
So adding a type tag resolves the issue. So the dependency should look like

<dependency>
     <groupId>org.jraf</groupId>
    <artifactId>android-switch-backport</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
    <type>apklib</type>
</dependency>

Which results in a successful download ad follows

Downloaded: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/jraf/android-switch-backport/1.0/android-switch-backport-1.0.apklib (67 KB at 850.8 KB/sec)

After maven downloads the dependency the android maven plugin will expand that and add the dependency as a generated external library in the gen-external-apklibs directory.

I tested this using the following.
maven 3.0.3
Intellij Idea 12

#UPDATE : using proper github markdowns for mentioning the dependency

Thanks a lot for the feedback! :)
I'll see if I can do something about the incorrect info on this maven.org page but I'm guessing it is just automatically (incorrectly) generated.
I'll then update the readme file and close this issue.

Finally updated the readme :)
