Allow other repositories

[TigerWolf]

One of the Libraries I would like to use is on JCenter:

https://bintray.com/bintray/jcenter

It appears to be the default repository that Android Studio uses.

Im not very familiar with maven but it looks like this might help:

http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-mirror-settings.html

It could be done by the user but it would be great if this gem did this.

Hi Tiger,

yes indeed I've been thinking about it, I don't want to mess with the ~/.m2/settings.xml but I think I can add it to the generated pom.

for future reference : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/71030/can-i-add-maven-repositories-in-the-command-line

[jjaffeux]

Could have this api :

maven.repositories do
  repository 'https://bintray.com/bintray/jcenter'
end

Why not adding a repository method to the current maven block instead?

  app.maven do
    repository 'https://foo.com/bar'
    dependency 'foo'
  end

[jjaffeux]

yes indeed this is what I wanted to write, but it was too early for me probably...

@TigerWolf hey I just pushed 1.1.0 with support for repositories (see README), can you try and tell me if it works for you please ?

[TigerWolf]

Thanks for doing this. I will try it out today.

Yes, I forgot to add the erb file, just pushed update, should be good now.

[TigerWolf]

Possibly unrelated but I am not able to download the jar from JCenter.

http://dl.bintray.com/austintaylor/maven/com/uservoice/uservoice-android-sdk/

https://bintray.com/austintaylor/maven/com.uservoice%3Auservoice-android-sdk/view

  app.maven do
    repository 'https://bintray.com/bintray/jcenter'
    # dependency "com.uservoice.uservoice-android-sdk"
    dependency 'com.uservoice', :artifact => 'uservoice-android-sdk'
  end

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project dependencies: Could not resolve dependencies for project com.maventest:dependencies:jar:1.0: Failed to collect dependencies at com.uservoice:uservoice-android-sdk:jar:LATEST: Failed to read artifact descriptor for com.uservoice:uservoice-android-sdk:jar:LATEST: Failed to resolve version for com.uservoice:uservoice-android-sdk:jar:LATEST: Could not find metadata com.uservoice:uservoice-android-sdk/maven-metadata.xml in local (/Users/a1673450/.m2/repository) -> [Help 1]

Maybe because its an ARR file?

http://dl.bintray.com/austintaylor/maven/com/uservoice/uservoice-android-sdk/1.2.2/

[TigerWolf]

Its works for
dependency 'com.google.android', :artifact => 'support-v4'

[jjaffeux]

yes, I'm investigating concerning uservoice, there might be an issue with .aar file after, but I think there's another issue before

[jjaffeux]

Ok.

if you use :

app.maven do
    repository 'https://bintray.com/bintray/jcenter'
    repository 'http://dl.bintray.com/austintaylor/maven'
    dependency 'com.uservoice', :artifact => 'uservoice-android-sdk', :version => '1.2.2'
end

On bintray, when you are on the code page you have to click on "setup me" to find the right repository to add.

It will mostly work, I say mostly because you will still have an error with com.android.support:appcompat-v7:jar:21. which is not in bintray, but is in your /extras/android/support/v7/appcompat/ folder. Right now RubyMotion doesn't support it, and you will have to add it by hand, there's a ticket that should fix it in the next weeks : http://hipbyte.myjetbrains.com/youtrack/issue/RM-763

Thanks, I will try it out.
