Local development

Publishing to local Maven repository

To publish this library to your local Maven repository (~/.m2/repository), use:

# Publish with a custom version
./gradlew -PVERSION=1.2.3 publishToMavenLocal

# Publish with git commit hash as version
./gradlew -PVERSION=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD) publishToMavenLocal

The version can also be set via VERSION environment variable.

Using locally published build in other apps

1. Ensure mavenLocal() is in the app's repositories (settings.gradle.kts):

   dependencyResolutionManagement {
       repositories {
           mavenCentral()
           google()
           maven { setUrl("https://jitpack.io") }
           mavenLocal() // already exists in Fossify app repos
       }
   }

2. Update the commons version in the app's gradle/libs.versions.toml:

   [versions]
   commons = "1.2.3"  # Use the version you published

3. Sync and build.

Tip

Gradle resolves dependencies in repository order. Since mavenLocal() is listed last, it will only be used if the version isn't found in other repositories. To force using local, use a unique version like 1.2.3-local or a git commit hash.
