Building project throws error related to publishing part in build.gradle

[goodudetheboy]

When I try to build project, it returns error Could not get unknown property 'ossrhUsername' for Credentials [username: null] of type org.gradle.internal.credentials.DefaultPasswordCredentials_Decorated.

This might be because of the publishing to Maven part in the build.gradle file. This was solved by removing/commenting out in the gradle file

apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
apply plugin: 'signing'

and

publishing {
    publications {
        Release(MavenPublication) {
            groupId 'ch.poole'
            artifactId 'OpeningHoursParser'
            artifact jar
            artifact sourcesJar
            artifact javadocJar
            pom {
                name = artifactId
                description = 'This is a simple parser for OSM "opening_hours" tags'    
                url = 'https://github.com/simonpoole/OpeningHoursParser'
                scm {
                    url = repoUrl
                }
                licenses {
                    license {
                        name = spdxId
                        url = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simonpoole/OpeningHoursParser/master/LICENCE.txt'
                    }
                }
                developers {
                    developer {
                        name = 'Simon Poole'
                    }
                }
            }
            repositories {
                maven {
                    name = 'sonatype'
                    credentials {
                        username ossrhUsername
                        password ossrhPassword
                    }
                    def releasesRepoUrl = "https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/"
                    def snapshotsRepoUrl = "https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/"
                    url = version.endsWith('SNAPSHOT') ? snapshotsRepoUrl : releasesRepoUrl
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

signing {
    sign publishing.publications.Release
}

Optionally, there can be an extra build file (with the part above removed) for local run.

Yes that is an artifact of moving to sonatype for publishing, you can simply add dummy values to your account level gradle.properties. We should probably move to getting these from the environment instead so that things will compile out of the box.

Noted. Thanks for the clarification.
