Add artefacts to Maven repository about protolock HOT 7 OPEN

This would be nice to have, so Gradle builds can use this tool without requiring that developers manually install it. Is there anything I can do to help make this happen?

@rost5000 - that sounds cool, thanks for sharing. I'm not sure how to publish to Maven repo though.. is this something that you could PR as a Github Action? I can convert protolock's CI to Github Action and automate the release (which is long overdue...), but if you know how to do the Maven portion, I'd be grateful for a PR that at least illustrates how it is done.

@nilslice, Thank you for replying. I think that the optimal way is publishing to sonar (https://central.sonatype.org/publish/requirements/coordinates/) using Gradle. The following steps are needed:

1. Register to sonar jira and create task to open public artifacts (https://central.sonatype.org/publish/publish-guide/#create-a-ticket-with-sonatype)
2. The gpg keys with tool: https://www.gnupg.org/download/
3. Then publish using gradle

I can do it myself manually with your permition. However, I did not face with github CI actions...

You also can see an example of Gradle publishing to local Maven repository in: https://github.com/rost5000/protoloc-gradle-publisher

Thanks for the info, @rost5000 -- I have a few other things on my list with higher priority right now, but will get to this as soon as possible.

@clamothebb i have zero experience publishing to the mentioned artifact management repository, so would take any help you'd offer!

I can probably get as far as supplying a token as a secret to the Action environment if you tell me what name & scopes (if needed), in case you'd like to provide a PR to automate this on releases?

Hi, @nilslice , I manually published the binaries (as a workaround). The current URL: https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/io.github.rost5000.protolock/protolock-binaries

If you want to change the scope or naming or integrate auto-publishing to your pipeline, I'll be glad to explain what you require for that

FYI here are two similar go projects that publish to maven central using gradle and github action:

• https://github.com/pseudomuto/protoc-gen-doc
• https://github.com/yoheimuta/protolint
