Preferred way to publish snapshots/releases to Artifactory?

I managed to get it to work with the maven-publish plugin, but it’s definitely a quirk in the plugin.

This does not work:

apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
apply plugin: 'application'

group = "com.mycompany"
version = project.properties.containsKey("releaseVersion") ? "${releaseVersion}" : "0.0.1-SNAPSHOT"

project.ext {
    artifactoryRepo = project.properties.containsKey("releaseVersion") ? "libs-release-local" : "libs-snapshot-local"    
}

publishing {
    repositories {
        maven {
            credentials {
                username "${artifactoryUser}"
                password "${artifactoryPassword}"
            }
            url "${artifactoryUrl}/${artifactoryRepo}"
        }
    }
    
    publications {
        myPublication(MavenPublication) {
            artifact source: distZip, extension: "zip"
            artifact source: someOtherDistZip, classifier: "dumdeedum", extension: "zip"
        }
    }
}

But this if you change “publishing” with “publishing.repositories” and “publishing.publications”, then it does work:

apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
apply plugin: 'application'

group = "com.mycompany"
version = project.properties.containsKey("releaseVersion") ? "${releaseVersion}" : "0.0.1-SNAPSHOT"

project.ext {
    artifactoryRepo = project.properties.containsKey("releaseVersion") ? "libs-release-local" : "libs-snapshot-local"    
}

publishing.repositories {
    maven {
        credentials {
            username "${artifactoryUser}"
            password "${artifactoryPassword}"
        }
        url "${artifactoryUrl}/${artifactoryRepo}"
    }
}
    
publishing.publications {
    myPublication(MavenPublication) {
        artifact source: distZip, extension: "zip"
        artifact source: someOtherDistZip, classifier: "dumdeedum", extension: "zip"
    }
}
