Using archive task artifacts
In the following example build file, we define a new publication with the name publishJar, and we define the output of the jar archive task as an artifact:
apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
apply plugin: 'java'
// Configuration block for publishing
// artifacts from the project.
publishing {
// Define publications with what
// needs to be published.
publications {
// Name of this publication
// is publishJar.
publishJar(MavenPublication) {
// Use output of jar task
// as the artifact for
// the publication.
artifact jar
// Alternatively we can use
// a Map notation:
// artifact source: jar
}
}
}Next, we will run the tasks task and, in the output, we will be able to see newly generated tasks for publishing this publication:
