ShadowJar + GradleNexusPlugin : Could not publish configuration 'archives' #67
Comments

The reason this is happen is that the application plugin and the shadow plugin both create a JAR without a classifier. I'd need to further understand the use case you are trying to solve.

@bmuschko my goal is to host our "fat" jars on a nexus repository. These are basically servers, or utilities that need to be versioned. We use application plugin because we build some executables jar (hosted too on nexus) I created a maven registry extra for releases-stable releases-snapshot and so on We use shadowJar because we want only one jar for our release. We start our rules-engine simply with java -jar rules-engine.jar . No need to place some libs somewhere and so on (easier to deploy/use). Of course everything can be discussed but I think it's not wrong to want this :/ Do you mean application plugin and shadowjar are conflicting each others? |
The application plugin doesn't build executable JARs. It just creates distributions (bundled as ZIP or TAR files) that contain shell/batch scripts plus the JAR of your project and external dependencies. The JAR you are creating is still the plain JAR you'd get when applying the Java plugin.
Then I don't get why you need the application plugin.
They are conflicting in the way you configured them for publishing. You removed the |

@bmuschko good to know. Thank for your explanations. I thought the application plugin's role was to embed other libraries but in fact it is done in the shadowJar plugin. So effectively -> no need of application plugin. After that I had to change some things that way: def mainClassName = "com.company.project.MyMainClass"
jar {
manifest {
attributes 'Main-Class': mainClassName
}
}
jar {
manifest {
attributes 'Main-Class': mainClassName
}
}
shadowJar {
mergeServiceFiles()
configurations = [project.configurations.compile]
classifier = null
}
artifacts {
archives shadowJar
}And now when I run :
I get my javadoc, sources, tests, and fatjar uploaded to nexus like a charm :) It's beautifull Thank you for your help ben ! |
Hello Ben,
first of all thank you for maintaining and creation of this plugin.
In our project we use ShadowJar and I suppose it breaks a little bit the workflow of your plugin :/
Here is what I have in my build.gradle:
With this when I run gradle install :
And this generate me :
After some investigations I discovered (maybe I am wrong) that I have multiple files with the same name (exl extension) in distributions directory maybe causing a problem.
So I added :
And then I only get :
And the error is now:
Any idea about that ? I am really stucked here I spent almost one entire day around it looking on some help on irc but well it seems quite complicated to fix without really knowing gradle workflow.
Bonus (stacktrace):
Thank you very much in advance for your support. I hope I gave you all the keys to help me if it's not the case I would be happy to give you more informations.
