Custom Plugin,which configures and executes maven-publisher

[Stefan.Rademacher]

Hi all,

I am new to the mailing list (and to groovy plugin development) and have 
question, which which wasn't answered by any of the "groovy plugin 
development"-tutorials, that I found.

I have a custom groovy plugin, which defines a task and provides an extension.

       public void apply(Project project) {
             project.getPluginManager().apply(MavenPublishPlugin.class);

             project.task("publishBundles", type: PublishBundlesTask)

             def bundleGroup = project.container(BundleGroup)
             project.configure(project) {
                    extensions.create("bundleToMavenPublisher", 
PublishBundlesExtension, bundleGroup)
             }
       }

I want the users of my plugin to configure stuff with the dsl, provided by my 
extension. My task reads the configuration and generates PublishExtension 
configuration from it:

@TaskAction
def publishBundlesAction() {
       if (bundleGroups == null) {
             bundleGroups = project.bundleToMavenPublisher.bundleGroups
       }

       PublishingExtension publishingExtension = 
project.extensions.findByType(PublishingExtension)
       publishingExtension.with {
             publications {
                    // reuse content from bundleGroups variable here...
             }
             repositories { maven { url "..." } }
       }
}

So far, this works well.

The problem, I couldn't solve yet, is to execute the MavenPublishPlugin from my 
plugin, so that it uses the previously generated configuration (publications, 
repositories).

Does anyone have a hint for me, how to solve this?

Thank you very much in advance!!!
Stefan
