Notes for Developers and Maintainers

Build

• The project uses JAVA with JDK version 17 (see .github/workflows/build.yml and .jitpack.yml)

Publish a new release

The publishing process is largely automated via the publish.gradle and simpledialogfragments/publish.gradle files, thanks to the excellent tutorial Publishing Android libraries to MavenCentral in 2021.

• Create or update the project root local.properties file to supply the required credentials

  # GPG signing key (mandatory for maven central)
  # secretKeyRingFile must be in binary format, e.g. gpg --export-secret-keys XXXX > XXXX.gpg
  signing.keyId=XXXX
  signing.password=XXXX
  signing.secretKeyRingFile=PATH\\TO\\XXXX.gpg
  # Sonatype credentials
  # https://s01.oss.sonatype.org
  ossrhUsername=XXXX
  ossrhPassword=XXXX
  sonatypeStagingProfileId=XXXX

• Increment the version in project root build.gradle file

  // Version number used for simpledialogfragments library, testApp and maven repository
  ext {
    VERSION = '0.0'
    VERSION_NR = 000
  }

• Select and run the Release new version run configuration in Android Studio or call it with .\gradlew release
  It will build and upload the release, update the README, make a git commit and tag the new version
  
• Publish the release at https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/#stagingRepositories
• Push to GitHub and create release notes at https://github.com/eltos/SimpleDialogFragments/releases
