public interface MavenPom

The POM for a Maven publication. The withXml(org.gradle.api.Action) method can be used to modify the descriptor after it has been generated according to the publication data.

Since:

1.4

withXml

public void withXml(Action action)

Allows configuration of the POM, after it has been generated according to the input data.

 apply plugin: "maven-publish"

 publishing {
   publications {
     maven(MavenPublication) {
       pom.withXml {
         asNode().appendNode('description', 'A demonstration of maven pom customisation')
       }
     }
   }
 }
 

Note that due to Gradle's internal type conversion system, you can pass a Groovy closure to this method and it will be automatically converted to an Action.

Each action/closure passed to this method will be stored as a callback, and executed when the publication that this descriptor is attached to is published.

For details on the structure of the XML to be modified, see the POM reference.

Parameters:

action - The configuration action.
