Migrate to Central Sonatype Repo

[robertjamison]

OSSRH is shutting down June 30th.

Notice from Sonatype's documentation:

Migration Required
If you are currently publishing via OSSRH, you will have to migrate to the Central Publisher Portal in order to utilize this service.

the Gradle built-in maven-publish plugin might be configured as

// ...
    repositories {
        maven {
            name = "ossrh-staging-api"
            url = uri("https://ossrh-staging-api.central.sonatype.com/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/")
        }
    }
// ...

For some reason, Sonatype forces you to use their manual endpoint service too.

EDIT: I haven't figured out how to push a repo to Central yet. I'm hoping to copy your technique if you figure it out first.

Hi @robertjamison

Thanks for letting me know - l'll probably get to the migration some time in the coming weeks

Hi @xxfast!

I took the liberty of sending a pull request for the build.gradle.kts file to prepare for migration. One of the first things we learned is that the maven-publishing and signing plugins are not compatible with Central Sonatype. We ended up using Vanniktech, which depends on environmental variables instead of reading values from Gradle files.

Here's what our publish.yaml file updated to when we finished:

      - name: Publish to MavenCentral
        if: ${{ github.event_name != 'pull_request' }}
        run: ./gradlew publishToMavenCentral --no-configuration-cache
        env:
          ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_mavenCentralUsername: ${{ secrets.MAVEN_CENTRAL_USERNAME }}
          ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_mavenCentralPassword: ${{ secrets.MAVEN_CENTRAL_PASSWORD }}
          ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_signingInMemoryKeyId: ${{ secrets.SIGNING_KEY_ID }}
          ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_signingInMemoryKeyPassword: ${{ secrets.SIGNING_PASSWORD }}
          ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_signingInMemoryKey: ${{ secrets.GPG_KEY_CONTENTS }}

Let me know if you need help with the migration, as I'll be working on it tomorrow too.

Yup, I had to switch to Vanniktech in my prod project because of split staging repositories, so it should be fine

I saw you published. Good job figuring it out -- it took me like three days to get mine working. I'll close this issue out for you.
