gradle-maven-publish-plugin

• Added configureBasedOnAppliedPlugins(sourcesJar: Boolean, javadocJar: Boolean)
  overload that allows disabling sources and javadoc jars without having to use
  the more granular Platform APIs.
• For Java library and Kotlin/JVM projects the Gradle module metadata now properly
  includes the sources jar.
• When running on Gradle 8.8 or newer the pom configuration is not applied in
  afterEvaluate anymore, making manual overrides easier.
• Fix potential issue with the javadoc jar tasks that can cause Gradle to disable
  optimizations.
• When staging profiles can't be loaded the status code of the response is added
  to the error message.

Minimum supported versions

• JDK 11
• Gradle 8.1
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.0.0
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.9.20

Compatibility tested up to

• JDK 21
• Gradle 8.8
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.5.0
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.6.0-alpha06
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 2.0.0
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 2.0.20-Beta1

Configuration cache status

Configuration cache is generally supported, except for:

• Publishing releases to Maven Central (snapshots are fine), blocked by Gradle issue #22779.
• Dokka does not support configuration cache

• Added support for publishing through the new Central Portal. To use
  this use the CENTRAL_PORTAL option when specifying the Sonatype host.
• For Kotlin Multiplatform the main plugin will now automatically publish the
  release variant if the project has an Android target and no variant was explicitly
  specified through the Kotlin Gradle DSL.
• Support specifying the Android variants to publish in KotlinMultiplatform(...).
• Updated minimum supported Gradle, Android Gradle Plugin and Kotlin versions.
• Removed support for the deprecated Kotlin/JS plugin.
• Removed the deprecated closeAndReleaseRepository task. Use releaseRepository, which
  is functionally equivalent, instead.

Minimum supported versions

• JDK 11
• Gradle 8.1
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.0.0
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.9.20

Compatibility tested up to

• JDK 21
• Gradle 8.6
• Gradle 8.7-rc-3
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.3.0
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.4.0-alpha13
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.9.23
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 2.0.0-Beta4

Configuration cache status

Configuration cache is generally supported, except for:

• Publishing releases to Maven Central (snapshots are fine), blocked by Gradle issue #22779.
• Dokka does not support configuration cache

• Added new publishing related tasks
  • releaseRepository releases a staging repository at the end of the build
    and can be executed in the same build as the publishing task. This allows
    having automatic releases without permanently enabling them.
  • publishToMavenCentral as alias for running publishAllPublicationsToMavenCentralRepository.
  • publishAndReleaseToMavenCentral as alias for running both of the above.
  • For more information checkout the docs.
• It is now possible to only pass a subset of the parameters to
  coordinates(...) and leave the others at their default value.
  Thanks to @sschuberth for the contribution.
• Fixed java-test-fixture projects being broken with Gradle 8.6.
• Deprecated closeAndReleaseRepository in favor of releaseRepository.

Minimum supported versions

• JDK 11
• Gradle 7.6
• Android Gradle Plugin 7.4.0
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.8.20

Compatibility tested up to

• JDK 21
• Gradle 8.5
• Gradle 8.6-rc-1
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.2.1
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.3.0-beta01
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.4.0-alpha03
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.9.22
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 2.0.0-Beta2

Configuration cache status

When using Gradle 8.1 or newer configuration cache is generally supported.

Exceptions to that are:

• Publishing releases to Maven Central (snapshots are fine), blocked by Gradle issue #22779.
• Dokka does not support configuration cache

• It's now supported to call configure(Platform) from the main plugin to modify
  what is getting published. Check out the docs for more details
• The base plugin now has a configureBasedOnAppliedPlugins DSL method to
  allow applying the default configure logic of the main plugin.
• Calling configure(Platform) now validates that the required plugins are
  applied (e.g. Android Gradle Plugin for Android projects).
• It's now possible to disable source publishing for KMP projects.
• Fixed an issue which would cause the javadoc jar task to be registered multiple
  times for Gradle plugin projects with more than one publication. Thanks to
  @autonomousapps for the fix.
• Publishing Kotlin/JS projects has been deprecated and will be removed in the
  next release, because the Kotlin/JS plugin has been deprecated.
• The internal task to create a javadoc jar for certain project types has been renamed
  from simpleJavadocJar to plainJavadocJar. Thanks to @sschuberth.

Minimum supported versions

• JDK 11
• Gradle 7.6
• Android Gradle Plugin 7.4.0
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.8.20

Compatibility tested up to

• JDK 21
• Gradle 8.5
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.2.0
• Android Gradle Plugin 8.3.0-alpha17
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.9.21
• Kotlin Gradle Plugin 2.0.0-Beta1

Configuration cache status

When using Gradle 8.1 or newer configuration cache is generally supported.

Exceptions to that are:

• Publishing releases to Maven Central (snapshots are fine), blocked by Gradle issue #22779.
• Dokka does not support configuration cache

• Gradle 8.2: Fix error for projects that use the java-test-fixtures plugin.
• Fix issue for Kotlin Multiplatform projects when running tests and having signing enabled.

• Fix javadoc jar being empty when using dokka.

• Fix snapshot publishing being broken.

• The createStagingRepository task now uses the worker API which allows the project to built
  in parallel to the creation of the staging repository.
• Fix incompatibility with Kotlin 1.8.20-Beta for Kotlin/JS projects. The Kotlin/JS plugin is now taking
  care of creating the sources jar on its own. Because of this the base plugin won't allow disabling
  sources jar creation for Kotlin/JS projects anymore starting with 1.8.20. The KotlinJs constructor
  with a sourcesJar parameter has been deprecated.
• Fix incompatibility with Gradle 8.1 for java-test-fixtures projects
• Fix incompatibility with com.gradle.plugin-publish 1.0.0 and 1.1.0
• New minimum supported versions:
  • Gradle 7.4
  • Android Gradle Plugin 7.3.0
  • Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.7.0
  • com.gradle.plugin-publish 1.0.0
• Note: Starting with Kotlin 1.8.20-Beta the common sources jar for multiplatform projects will only contain
  the sources of the common source set instead of containing the sources from all source sets.

Configuration cache status

Configuration cache is supported starting with Gradle 7.6+ except for:

• Builds with enabled signing, will be resolved in Gradle 8.1.
• Publishing releases to Maven Central (snapshots are fine), blocked by Gradle issue #22779.
• Kotlin Multiplatform projects, blocked by KT-49933.

• Support arbitrary Sonatype hosts instead of just oss.sonatype.org and s01.oss.sonatype.org.
• Support adjusting timeouts for Sonatype related requests and operations. See docs
• Internal change on how the sources jar is created.

• Fix signing when using Gradle 8.0.
• Finding a matching staging profile in Sonatype is more lenient. If there is just one that one will always be used.
  The plugin will also fallback to any staging profile that has a matching prefix with the group id.
• As a workaround for an issue in Gradle that causes invalid module metadata for java-test-fixtures projects, project.group
  and project.version are now being set again for those projects. #490
