I have a gradle project which writes a snapshot artifact to a maven local repository “mavenLocal()”. This seems to work just fine. I also have another gradle script that uses this artifact as a dependency but fails to find it . Keep in mind i have mavenLocal() as my repository to search for the specific artifact.

- What went wrong:  
A problem occurred evaluating root project ‘app’.

> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ‘:myapp’.  
> Could not find com.asolomon.module:app:1.0.0.SNAPSHOT.  
> Searched in the following locations:  
> file:/Users/asolomon/.m2/repository/com/asolomon/module/app/1.0.0.SNAPSHOT/app/1.0.0.SNAPSHOT/app-1.0.0.SNAPSHOT.pom  
> file:/Users/asolomon/.m2/repository/com/asolomon/module/app/1.0.0.SNAPSHOT/app-1.0.0.SNAPSHOT.zip  
> Required by:  
> project :

This is what I have for the gradle code

configurations {  
myapp  
}

dependencies {  
myapp “com.asolomon.module:app:1.0.0.SNAPSHOT:@zip”  
}

task extractApp(type: Copy) {  
configurations.myapp.each { file →   
from zipTree(artifact)  
into “$buildDir/tmp”  
}  
}

I’m trying to do the same thing. Did you ever get a resolution on this?
