how do i publish my js to mavenLocal using the new plugin and kotlin 1.3.70-eap-42 ? i tried to apply https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/building-mpp-with-gradle.html#publishing-a-multiplatform-library but it seems to not work

[Dominaezzz]

publishToMavenLocal gives an error or..?

[Nikky]

its more like

publishing {
    publications.withType<MavenPublication>().apply {
        val js by getting { }
        val metadata by getting { /* Setup the publication for Kotlin metadata */ }
    }
}

this kind of block does not work because it cannot find any publications

[Dominaezzz]

The publications are supposed to appear (be created) if the maven-publish plugin is applied.

[Nikky]

well it seems not to be ?

this is my current buildscript: https://gist.github.com/NikkyAI/ad5b08d6fdb1940fe6c10f67bc0eaf51

i am trying to see if some builderrors of my program can be fixed by moving this library to kotlin.js and using the better packaging in the eap

[Dominaezzz]

Ah, I spoke too soon and for some reason assumed you were using the multiplatform plugin. I have no idea why this doesn't work.

[Nikky]

i could use multiplatform as a shortcut.. but i hoped there would be no need..

[Nikky]

it works after a refactor to mpp, so i guess that will have to do for now

[Nikky]

But publishing with kotlin.js should be looked at! Assuming that was not used too much during dev builds and maybe got forgotten

Could you please try to change?

`maven-publish` -> id("maven-publish")

UPD: Oh, I see that it is ` not ’

funny.. next blocker is gradle crashing on linux ...

the same code that was working fine on windows 10 is now causing stackoverflowerror on gradle sync
when depending on this library.. maybe because its on localMaven() ?
