Template project to create an Android library, which is ready to be published locally and on Maven Central.

• Kotlin 1.4.32
• KtLint
• Android Testing setup for both unit and integration tests
• Library project
• Example app project which imports the library project
• manifest.gradle which contains library metadata information and common dependencies between library project and demo app project.

• Fork this project
• Clone it locally
• Run ./rename and enter the required information
• Done! Open example/build.gradle from your Android Studio and start writing your next awesome library!

Follow this guide: https://github.com/sky-uk/gradle-maven-plugin/#maven-central-publish

You can release the library:

• locally: ./release local. This is going to create a releases directory which can be used as a Maven Repository.
• MavenCentral: ./release

Once the library is published, you can use it like this:

implementation 'LIBRARY_PROJECT_GROUP:LIBRARY_NAME:1.0.0'

Perform ./release local and then push the releases directory. In your dependencies, add this to your repositories section:

maven {
    content { includeGroup "LIBRARY_PROJECT_GROUP" }
    credentials(HttpHeaderCredentials.class) {
        name = "Authorization"
        value = "Bearer ${ System.getenv('GITHUB_TOKEN') }"
    }
    authentication { register("header", HttpHeaderAuthentication.class) }
    url "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GITHUB_USER/GITHUB_REPOSITORY_NAME/master/releases"
}

You need to add an environment variable in your .bash_profile for the github repo to work:

export GITHUB_TOKEN="YOUR_TOKEN"

And then source .bash_profile
