Ark

This is a central GitHub powered maven repo for android .aar and .jar files for use as dependencies in Android projects with the new Gradle Build Tool.

Why jump through hoops for Maven Central when you can publish right on GitHub?

This is currently my personal collection of common libraries that I forked and published myself. If you like it or want to add to it please contribue!

Usage

To use, add this github repo as a repository:

repositories {
    maven {
        url 'https://raw.github.com/ark/ark/master/releases/'
    }
}

Then add the libraries you want as dependencies:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.actionbarsherlock:actionbarsherlock:4.4.0'
}

Adding your own library to Ark

By Updating your library and filing an issue:

• Add something like this to your build.gradle (currently only works with android plugin 0.5.4):

  apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
  
  group = 'com.example`
  version = '1.0.0'
  
  android.libraryVariants
  publishing {
      publications {
          maven(MavenPublication) {
             artifact bundleRelease
          }
      }
      repositories {
          maven {
              url "file://$buildDir/../../ark/releases"
          }
      }
  }

  Make sure the maven repo url points to the ark/releases folder inside the ark repository, not inside the project being built. So add/remove ../ or change the url as necessary.
• File an issue, I'll get to it, or tell you you're doing it wrong.

By Pull Request:

• Fork this repo
• Publish your library into your forked repo (see example build.gradle section from above)
