Gradle Repositories Plugin

This plugin extends the gradle repository class with some helpers to access download pages from various projects as artifact repositories. It supports download pages from the following sites:

• Sourceforge
• Googlecode
• GitHub

It also adds NuGet service as artifact repository.

Usage

When applied (like this), this plugin will add extra methods to RepositoryHandler:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath "com.ullink.gradle:gradle-repositories-plugin:1.1"
    }
}

apply plugin:'repositories'

repositories {
    googlecode()
    
    // you can restrict the group it applies to (== organization)
    googlecode('facebook-java-api')
    
    // you can customize the sub-pattern used for uploaded artifacts
    googlecode('il-repack', '[artifact]_[revision].[ext]')
}

dependencies {
    compile group: 'facebook-java-api', name: 'facebook-java-api', version: '2.0.+'
    foo group: 'il-repack', name: 'ILRepack', version: '1.18'
}

I was using URLResolver, why switch to these ?

• this plugin supports revisions patterns (e.g. '2.0.+')
• this plugin hacks around issues with googlecode or nuget (GRADLE-2124)

Supported repositories methods

GoogleCode

repositories {
    googlecode(String group = null, String subPattern = null, Closure closure = null)
}

• group: this will match both your googlecode project and your dependency group ( recommended to restrict lookup)

• subPattern: to customize artifact naming pattern, default is '[artifact]-[revision](-[classifier]).[ext]'

• closure: extra configuration code for your repository (can be used to customize its name or add extra patterns)

SourceForge

repositories {
    sourceforge(String group, String subPattern, Closure closure = null)
}

• group: this will match both your googlecode project and your dependency group

• subPattern: sourceforge supports folders, so almost every project has its own download pattern, e.g. : sourceforge('ikvm','[module]/[revision]/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]')

• closure: extra configuration code for your repository (can be used to customize its name or add extra patterns)

GitHub

Based on GitHub Releases.

repositories {
    github(String group = null, String subPattern = null, Closure closure = null)
}

• group: this will match both your github project and your dependency group ( recommended to restrict lookup)

• subPattern: to customize artifact naming pattern, default is '[revision]/[artifact]-[revision](-[classifier]).[ext]'

• closure: extra configuration code for your repository (can be used to customize its name or add extra patterns)

NuGet

repositories {
    nuget(String group = null, Closure closure = null)
}

• group: this will match both your nuget project and your dependency group ( recommended to restrict lookup)

• closure: extra configuration code for your repository (can be used to customize its name or add extra patterns)
