artifact

Creates a custom MavenArtifact to be included in the publication. The artifact method can take a variety of input:

• A org.gradle.api.artifacts.PublishArtifact instance. Extension and classifier values are taken from the wrapped instance.
• An org.gradle.api.tasks.bundling.AbstractArchiveTask instance. Extension and classifier values are taken from the wrapped instance.
• Anything that can be resolved to a java.io.File via the org.gradle.api.Project#file(Object) method. Extension and classifier values are interpolated from the file name.
• A java.util.Map that contains a 'source' entry that can be resolved as any of the other input types, including file. This map can contain a 'classifier' and an 'extension' entry to further configure the constructed artifact.

 apply plugin: "maven-publish" task sourceJar(type: Jar) { classifier "sources" } publishing { publications { maven(MavenPublication) { artifact sourceJar // Publish the output of the sourceJar task artifact 'my-file-name.jar' // Publish a file created outside of the build artifact source: sourceJar, classifier: 'src', extension: 'zip' } } } 

Parameters

source - The source of the artifact content.

Creates an MavenArtifact to be included in the publication, which is configured by the associated action. The first parameter is used to create a custom artifact and add it to the publication, as per #artifact(Object). The created MavenArtifact is then configured using the supplied action, which can override the extension or classifier of the artifact. This method also accepts the configure action as a closure argument, by type coercion.

 apply plugin: "maven-publish" task sourceJar(type: Jar) { classifier "sources" } publishing { publications { maven(MavenPublication) { artifact(sourceJar) { // These values will be used instead of the values from the task. The task values will not be updated. classifier "src" extension "zip" } artifact("my-docs-file.htm") { classifier "documentation" extension "html" } } } } 

Parameters

source - The source of the artifact.

config - An action to configure the values of the constructed MavenArtifact.
