Publishing

Publishing requires:

One time only

• Get your dev environment setup to compile the SDK
• copy the GPG key to a directory with proper permissions (chmod 600). Note: If you'd like to quickly locally without subsequently publishing to Maven Central, configure a Gradle property RELEASE_SIGNING_ENABLED=false
• Create file ~/.gradle/gradle.properties per the instructions in this guide
  • add your sonotype credentials to it
  • point it to the GPG key

Every time

1. Update the build number and the CHANGELOG
2. Build locally
   • Critical Note: Building once does not copy the *.so files and results in an artifact <1MB in size. Building twice fixes that problem and results in an artifact >5MB in size. This is probably a bug in the gradle cargo plugin that we use.
   • This will install the files in your local maven repo at ~/.m2/repository/cash/z/ecc/android/
   • Build twice (first with a clean, then without):

./gradlew clean publishToMavenLocal && ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal

3. Publish via the following command:

# This uploads the file to sonotype’s staging area
./gradlew publish --no-daemon --no-parallel

4. Deploy to maven central:

# This closes the staging repository and releases it to the world
./gradlew closeAndReleaseRepository
