Publishing a multi-modules (40+) multiplatform library to bintray using the maven-publish Gradle plugin be-like:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 41m 15s

1866 actionable tasks: 1247 executed, 432 from cache, 187 up-to-date

Before, I was using bintray gradle plugin, (plus didn't support Kotlin/Native in 3 modules that now support iOS and macOS) and the compilation + upload was taking 2-3 minutes on a equally fast internet connection.

Now I'm looking for setting up a free CI for open source projects that would do it on command for me, off my laptop, so I can keep working on the codebase while publishing a version (that might still be useful after the state of maven-publish and Kotlin/Native compilation speed improves). Recommandations are welcome!

Travis is pretty popular; it's what I use.

I use Azure for https://github.com/benasher44/uuid. Nice because windows support is good, and works well for Mac and Linux envs too

Deploys every time I merge master

I would also choose Azure and we'll probably wind up moving the Square stuff there.

It has nothing to do with the platform you upload to. maven-publish is just that, very slow.

The rumor says Gradle 5.6.1 fixed it.

@elizarov Why 5.6.1 that has not been released yet? Isn't it set to be fixed in 5.6 RC1 that should be available in less than 3 weeks?

[elizarov]

5.6 RC1 that is

@elizarov I see you use TeamCity "the Hassle-Free CI & CD Server by JetBrains" for kotlinx.coroutines. Did you choose it solely because it's a JetBrains project, or was there other factors at play? If so, I'd like to know them. Configuring CI with a Kotlin DSL sounds more appealing than YAML in Azure, Travis or other CI competitors, but I wouldn't want to get drawbacks.

FYI, Gradle 5.6 RC1 has been released today! Will compare soon.
