I'm trying to write tests for a build process, so my unit test wants to replace the actual repository locations with local locations to avoid poisoning the real server. (Plus, I suppose, the person running the test might not have access to publish anyway.)

In the build itself:

publishing 
 repositories 
 maven 
 name = 'snapshot'
 url = "$artifactory_contextUrl/libs-snapshot-local"
 credentials 
 username artifactory_user
 password artifactory_password
 
 

 maven 
 name = 'release'
 url = "$artifactory_contextUrl/libs-release-local"
 credentials 
 username artifactory_user
 password artifactory_password
 
 
 

In my test build, I'm trying to override it with this:

publishing 
 repositories 
 getByName('snapshot') 
 url = uri('/tmp/local-repo/snapshots')
 
 getByName('release') 
 url = uri('/tmp/local-repo/release')
 
 

When I try to run the build, I get:

Execution failed for task ':publishMavenJavaPublicationToReleaseRepository'.
> Failed to publish publication 'mavenJava' to repository 'release'
 > Authentication scheme 'all'(Authentication) is not supported by protocol 'file'

There are a lot of posts out on the web about this specific error, but it always seems to be people who accidentally put a file path in when they should have put a URI. I'm putting in a URI deliberately, though, so is there a way to get this to work?

I have also tried this:

publishing 
 repositories 
 clear()
 maven 
 name = 'snapshot'
 url = uri('/tmp/local-repo/snapshots')
 
 maven 
 name = 'release'
 url = uri('/tmp/local-repo/release')
 
 

That fails with:

A problem occurred configuring root project 'test-common-plugin1913987501683151177'.
> Exception thrown while executing model rule: PublishingPluginRules#publishing(ExtensionContainer)
 > Cannot add task 'publishMavenJavaPublicationToSnapshotRepository' as a task with that name already exists.

I was surprised that deleting all the repositories doesn't also delete all the tasks they own. When I try to programmatically delete the task it's complaining about, Gradle claims that it doesn't exist.

Alright, I ended up having to read the source of Gradle (again), but I found a way to do it. Essentially you can directly set credentials back to null, like this:

publishing 
 repositories 
 getByName('snapshot') 
 url = uri('/tmp/local-repo/snapshots')
 configuredCredentials = null
 
 getByName('release') 
 url = uri('/tmp/local-repo/release')
 configuredCredentials = null
