hello! is there a way to finalize root module task AFTER all child modules finish their tasks? e.g. would like to finalize

publish

with

closeAndReleaseRepository

(from

gradle-nexus-staging-plugin

) but it needs to run after ALL modules finish publishing their artifacts. Currently I’m explicitly running

gradle publish closeAndReleaseRepository

but wondering whether there is a better way

There is no

publish

in the root module, when you call:

./gradlew publish

you are just executing publish on all the Gradle modules

well my

dependsOn

clause for root

publish

works fine (i.e.

initializeSonatypeStagingRepository

)

It seems you are applying the publishing plugin to the root project, so, yes, you have a publish task (that does nothing) at the root

So there is no clean way of updating build to finalize publish after all modules are published

I was looking for the documentation but I don't find it, Gradle suggests exposing a configuration from the projects and consuming it from the root in your case..

I guess

BTW does anything enforce the order of the task or may it run before the publish finished?

i guess its just gradle running tasks in order they are specified
