(Quick Reference) # 6.3 Publishing Profiles Version: 6.0.0 ## 6.3 Publishing Profiles #### Publishing Profiles to the Grails Central Repository Any profile created with the create-profile command already comes configured with a `grails-profile-publish` plugin defined in `build.gradle`:
    apply plugin: "org.grails.grails-profile-publish"
To publish a profile using this plugin to the Grails central repository first upload the source to Github (closed source profiles will not be accepted). Then register for an account on Bintray and configure your keys as follows in the profile’s `build.gradle` file:
    grailsPublish {
      user = 'YOUR USERNAME'
      key = 'YOUR KEY'
      githubSlug = 'your-repo/your-profile'
      license = 'Apache-2.0'
    }
| The `githubSlug` argument should point to the path to your Github repository. For example if your repository is located at https://github.com/foo/bar then your `githubSlug` is `foo/bar`
With this in place you can run `gradle publishProfile` to publish your profile:
    $ gradle publishProfile
The profile will be uploaded to Bintray. You can then go the Grails profiles repository and request to have your profile included by clicking "Include My Package" button on Bintray’s interface (you must be logged in to see this). #### Publishing Profiles to an Internal Repository The aforementioned `grails-profile-publish` plugin configures Gradle’s Maven Publish plugin. In order to publish to an internal repository all you need to do is define the repository in `build.gradle`. For example:
    publishing {
        repositories {
            maven {
                credentials {
                    username "foo"
                    password "bar"
                }

                url "http://foo.com/repo"
            }
        }
    }
Once configured you can publish your plugin with `gradle publish`:
    $ gradle publish
