Hi! Have you used kotlin dsl with maven-publish? I am trying to get transitive dependencies like here https://gist.github.com/Robyer/a6578e60127418b380ca133a1291f017 in Kotlin DSL. I struggle with dep.transitive. The interface Dependency does not include anything with transitive. I am not sure how to port this groovy fragment to kotlin dsl

There are many sub-interfaces of Dependency, one of them being ModuleDependency (https://docs.gradle.org/current/javadoc/org/gradle/api/artifacts/ModuleDependency.html). This one does have a transitive property. So I guess you should check if the dependency is an instance of ModuleDependency and if it is transitive: if (!(dep is ModuleDependency && dep.isTransitive))

Not sure if this helps, but I had an issue with transitive dependencies not showing up in the POM files of uploaded artifacts and it turns out I just needed to specifically upload them in the right order. For example, I had 4 subprojects-- subproject 2 depended on subproject 1, subproject 3 depended on subproject 2, etc. etc.. Subproject 2 was larger than the other subprojects (and they are uploaded async with maven-publish plugin) so it wasn't uploading until after subproject 3 was uploaded, and thus the transitive dependencies were not generated correctly in the Pom file.

I fixed it by just explicitly calling the publish tasks in the proper order in my runner config file like

./gradlew :subproject1:publish
./gradlew :subproject2:publish
//etc

@jbnizet good guess! That what I had done and its working like a charm 🙂.
