Hello,

I’ve written a plugin that heavly uses classes of com.gradle.plugin-publish without applying this plugin.

I’m trying to publish new plugin version of plugin [name.remal.agent](https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/name.remal.agent) to Gradle Plugins portal, but new version can’t be seen on portal.

Please take a look on log:

As you can see, there are no error/warning messages. But version 1.0.24.5 can’t be found: [Gradle - Plugin: name.remal.agent](https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/name.remal.agent/1.0.24.5)

What am I doing wrong?

PS: Values of X-Amz-Credential and X-Amz-Signature are hidden, but I can provide a full log.

Why would you want to duplicate the plugin-publish plugin so heavily instead of using it?

What’s happening here is that the Plugin Portal thinks this is a completely new plugin and “successfully” submitted the plugin for approval.

The plugin-publish plugin typically prefixes group IDs with `gradle.plugin.` as you can see in the buildscript snippet here: [https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/name.remal.vcs-auto-version](https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/name.remal.vcs-auto-version)

Perhaps if you add that to your group ID, it will work.

I’d still encourage you to use plugin-publish. If there is a significant deficiency with it that we should be aware of, please let me know.

I want publishing be more automated. So I’ve develop a plugin that simplifies publication a lot. For example, now I can just write this:

> apply plugin: ‘name.remal.publish-maven’  
> publishMaven {  
> bintray()  
> gradlePluginPortal()  
> }

It will create tasks for publish artifacts into Bintray and Gradle Plugin portal. Plugins metadata (description, tags, etc) will be taken automatically be classes processing (I have special annotation Plugin for that). Credentials will be taken from environment variables.

I haven’t reimplement Gradle Portal client. I’ve used such classes as PublishNewVersionRequest, BuildMetadata, PublishMavenCoordinates and so on… But I don’t apply com.gradle.plugin-publish plugin.

As you can see, all requests are successfully process by Plugin portal, but plugins haven’t published…

Should I retry publish or smth is still wrong?

I can approve all the plugins requests, but they may not be grouped as new versions of existing plugins.

I have approved the “new” plugin group, and it looks like this all works just fine now. [https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/name.remal.vcs-operations](https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/name.remal.vcs-operations)
