Publish repos to Maven Central

[MichaelEvans]

Do you plan to support Gradle?

[romk1n]

@MichaelEvans yes, we are planning on supporting gradle

Hey guys, it's been six months. Is Gradle support on the roadmap?

[braebot]

Hey y'all, I wanted to get the Gradle discussion going again. As you may or may not know, it's easy to drop libraries into your existing gradle build without any work by PayPal.

However, I suspect that this conversation was about whether or not we'll be dropping builds into the sonatype public repo, better known as mavenCentral(). This could then be used in maven or gradle builds.

We're still working out the details, but want to know if this is the general desire of the community. Please let us know what you're doing in your projects, and what you'd like to see here!

I think both gradle support AND having artifacts in maven central would be good. 👍

[braebot]

Thanks for the feedback @MichaelEvans! As mentioned, you don't need our help to get Gradle support, other than pointing your config to the lib directory where you put the SDK. Therefore, I'm going to rename this issue to address maven central publishing.

Yey!

Still nothing planned for this ? Seriously ?

[braebot]

Since this is not an open source project, maven central is not a viable option (unless I am mistaken). PayPal would need to host its own maven repo. But, before we can do any of that, we need to provide an .aar file for consumption, otherwise the card.io libs would be excluded.

[azpoliak]

when can we expect maven central support?

[braebot]

The current roadblocks to getting .aar files, and subsequent publication to maven central, are the following two issues:

• aar - package internal dependencies into aar
• aar proguard - allow 'repackageclasses'

We need to get the Android build folks to help us out here, or submit the fix ourselves. Doing it ourselves won't happen anytime soon due to new projects.

Hey everyone :) Braintree's v.zero SDK for Android includes PayPal and, depending on your use case, it may work for you. Get started here, and feel free to reach out to me or Braintree Support with questions or comments.
