I've just published a first preview version of the gradle plugin I've been working for past couple days. It enables publishing to NPM repositories in a similar way maven-publish does for maven repsitories. It also setups your publications automatically from your JS compilations, yet allows for custom publications too. Give it a goo and let me know what you think!

It's currently only on bintray, until my request to add it to gradlePluginPortal is approved

[ankushg]

I'm guessing it doesn't (yet) support multiple publications with interdependencies from a single JS compilation task?

(commented on your previous post with my use case)

[Big Chungus]

no, not yet. This currently just creates a publication per compilation/target

[Big Chungus]

Happy to add support for this, but I'm still not clear on your use-case. Could you kindly create an issue in the repository explaining it in more details, preferrably with your current gradle setup snippets.

[Big Chungus]

As usual, found compatibility issues with kotlin 1.4 after initial release.. Here's a hotfixed release: https://gitlab.com/lt.petuska/kpm-publish/-/releases/v0.0.3

@Big Chungus Can it be used to publish npm package not connected to any source set? Like kvision-assets which just contains some resources?

[Big Chungus]

Yes, you can add your own publications. However currently the plugin only registers if you have browser or nodejs flavour defined as it depends on nodejs setup task

[Big Chungus]

And it needs a compilation to hook up to. I probably should add support for arbitrary files directory too

[Big Chungus]

Gonna do that later today. Could you raise an issue describing your usecase, please?

[Robert Jaros]

I will. Thx.

[Big Chungus]

Just released v0.0.4
@Robert Jaros does this fulfil your use-case?

[Robert Jaros]

Probably yes. Thx. I'll try to test this and let you know.

[Big Chungus]

Apologies guys, but I've decided to rename the plugin from kpm-publish to npm-publish while noone is using it yet since the mission now has changed to support generic npm packages (not just kotlin). Here's v0.0.5
