Is the

maven_push.gradle

by Chris Banes still a good way to push aars to maven central? Also, https://github.com/quiph/RecyclerView-FastScroller

"If it ain't broke..." as they say

Agreed @jw. Also, what do you prefer? 1. jcenter -> maven central 2. sonatype nexus -> maven central or are they both the same? i feel one should take 1 if they wish to keep the aar hosted on jcenter as well, but not sure.

jcenter proxies maven central so releasing directly to maven central doesn't prevent your artifact from being consumed through it

oh. did not know that. thank you.

@suraj I made a plugin for that some time ago https://github.com/technoir42/aar-publish-plugin. It's designed to be used together with

maven-publish

. One advantage over gradle-mvn-push is that

maven-publish

automatically registers a task which publishes to mavenLocal. The plugin is also variant-aware so if you have any variant-specific sources they will be included in sources jar.

@Sergey Chelombitko very interesting, i'll keep this in mind for the next release. thanks.
