Gradle/Maven configs for Artifactory Java Client

Question

I am trying to use the Artifactory Java Client in my code and Gradle build but cannot discern a few details about the JAR itself:

• What exact mavenRepo should I use to locate the JAR inside my build.gradle ?
• What is the latest stable official version I should be using? According to Bintray , it's either 0.17, 0.7 or 0.10 depending on what link you go to. According to mvnrepo.org , it's 0.16.
• What are the Gradle coordinates for this latest/stable/official version ( group:artifact:version.jar )? Again, because I can't tell what binary repo is hosting this JAR, nor what version is officially the latest/stable, determining the proper coordinates is almost impossible.

---

Update:

It looks like the answer to the first question (maven repo) is:

maven {
    url "http://dl.bintray.com/jfrog/artifactory-tools" 
}

Looks like 0.17 is also the official stable/latest version.

So still needing help with the Gradle/Maven coordinates. Leaving these answers up here in case any future-comers wonder the same thing.

Answer 1

The Artifactory Java client is officially distributed from Bintray . You can use the Maven repo you mentioned or better use Bintray's jcenter :

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

0.17 is indeed the latest version. You can use this URL to get the latest version in Bintray - https://bintray.com/jfrog/artifactory-tools/artifactory-client-java/_latestVersion
The coordinates you need to use are:

compile(group: 'org.jfrog.artifactory.client', name: 'artifactory-java-client-services', version: '0.17', ext: 'jar')
