Is there a sample for publishing to github?

[RLD-JL]

I am trying to publish to github but I don't understand what I am doing wrong, because I am getting 404 or 405 or other error codes

npmPublish{
    packages {
        named("js") {
            packageName.set("library")
            version.set("1.0.0")
        }
    }
    registries{
        github {
            uri.set(uri("https://npm.pkg.github.com/"))
            authToken.set(System.getenv("TOKEN"))
        }
    }
}

Hi, GitHub registry has some restrictions on npm package naming. In short, they need to be scoped to your username (so for me that would be @mpetuska/package-name). You can achieve this via scope.set() dsl.

More details here: https://docs.github.com/en/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry/working-with-the-npm-registry#publishing-a-package

P.S. You don't need to set the uri when using gitHub registry shortcut.

And if I see the package.json generated from build/packages/js/ what should I do with it?

Just paste it here if you can for inspection.

There is no function that accepts string for repository, also I've changed the package name to be the same as the repository and still no package visible on the repo.

You might need to use uri() to convert the string to the URL. Have a look at what options intellij suggests for autocompletion in that scope. Alternatively you can just use custom package.json properties

In any case, I'll try to setup a minimal example for GH publishing tomorrow. Seems like this usecase is bound to pop back up again anyways.

Just paste it here if you can for inspection.

{
  "main": "master-library.js",
  "types": "master-library.d.ts",
  "version": "1.0.0-h",
  "name": "@rld-jl/library"
}

It does not work with uri either.

OK, just made a bare minimal sample for github packages setup:

• Project
• Published Package
