How to uniquely upload a release artifact on a repository

Old Forum Archive

Hi Luke,

Yes I was thinking of that kind of solution too, that’s why I posted the question on the Gradle forum. I was able to do it with Artifactory using two profiles, one for “snapshot” with “delete” rights, and one for “release” with only “deploy” rights. However, the error message is not really easy to understand for users, see traces below.

For SNAPSHOT I am using a dedicated user named “snapshot”, same for release:

uploadArchives.doFirst() {
  logger.lifecycle path + " Project Version: " + project.version
  repositories.mavenDeployer {
   name = 'artifactory'
   def repositoryRootUpload = 'http://vvv.zzz.yyy.xxx:8081/artifactory/'
            if (version.endsWith('SNAPSHOT')) {
                repository(url: repositoryRootUpload + 'libs-snapshot-local') {
                    authentication(userName: "snapshot", password: "vvv.zzz.yyy.xxx")
                }
            } else {
                repository(url: repositoryRootUpload + 'libs-release-local') {
                    authentication(userName: "release", password: "vvv.zzz.yyy.xxx")
                }
            }
  }
 }

As in your solution, the error message could be dedicated like: “A release artifact already exists for that version”.

If I have complains from my users, I will use your proposition.

Thanks,

Jean-Pierre
