publishToMavenLocal not (always) including all classes

Help/Discuss

Hi Gradle folks,

I have observed a weird and usually-but-not-always-reproducible phenomenon with one of my Gradle subprojects: when I include this directive:

java {
  // IntelliJ can also use the sources jar, published to the same location.
  withSourcesJar()
}

The resulting classes jar placed in my ~/.m2 repository will not always contain all of the class files. It will contain about half of them. Though the behavior appears somewhat intermittent. Commenting out the withSourcesJar() line and re-running publishToMavenLocal will usually fix the problem.

The subproject was ported to Kotlin but I kept the classes in src/main/java and added

sourceSets {
    main.java.srcDirs += "src/main/java"
}

Here is the entire build file in case it’s helpful:

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'kotlin'

apply plugin: 'maven-publish'

// This sets the jar name to wyvern-auth-1.1.jar
version = '1.1'

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}

// Required for App Engine.

targetCompatibility = '1.8'

    }
}

}

  withSourcesJar()
}

publishing {
    publications {
        mavenJava(MavenPublication) {
            groupId 'my.group.id'
            artifactId 'my-submodule'
            version "$version"
            from components.java
        }
    }
}

publishing {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "$buildDir/repo"
        }
    }
}

// Automatically publishes the jar to ~/.m2 for Maven when you "gradle build".
jar.finalizedBy publishToMavenLocal
publishToMavenLocal.onlyIf { jar.didWork }
buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
    }
}

Would love to know what I’m doing wrong, if anyone has ideas. Thank you.

A few days ago I moved my kotlin code from src/main/java over to src/main/kotlin, and that seems to have resolved the issue. Just thought I’d follow up in case anyone else runs into this.

Scratch that; it’s back. If anyone actually cares about this bug, I would be happy to send you the entire source code to this submodule.

Just guessing here: Are you running any other task before invoking pushToMavenLocal? It might be that the pushToMavenLocal does not actually generate the resulting jar itself but some other build* task. To investigate I recommend to delete the respective folder in ~/.m2/repository/com/example/ and only invoke ./gradlew clean pushToMavenLocal.

Perhaps your tasks aren’t wired together correctly. Try adding the task tree plugin to your build.

plugins {
    id "com.dorongold.task-tree" version "1.5"
}

Then run

gradle pushToMavenLocal taskTree

Then you’ll see the tree of tasks
