Support direct release library on maven central

[Swapnil Musale]

I've used this template to create library KDeviceInfo and for publishing the library on maven central using the ./gradlew publishAllPublicationsToSonatypeRepository command. But with this command library is being created on staging repository and for every release I've to open nexus site and have to close and release process manually.

Also checked other available gradle command under publishing section but couldn't found any command for direct publishing.
So my question is there any option so could automate this library releasing process ?

As I know, there is no way to publish on the maven central in a single command. If you find it, post it here, please

There are two gradle plugins available to automate the release process :

1. gradle-maven-publish-plugin using this plugin with one single command we can publish new version of the library on maven central.
   Command : ./gradlew publishAndReleaseToMavenCentral --no-configuration-cache

2. publish-plugin not much popular but can consider this as well.
