Gradle build failing to get dependency from custom maven repository

Question

I have created a custom maven repo on BitBucket following the link. When trying to use the dependencies in my android project using Gradle I am getting following error

Executing tasks: [:app:compileDebugJava]

Configuration on demand is an incubating feature.
Relying on packaging to define the extension of the main artifact has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 2.0

* What went wrong:

I have changed the link. But opening the link directly returns the checksum.

Below is my build.gradle

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'maven'
android {
    compileSdkVersion 19
    buildToolsVersion "20.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.test.sampleapp"
        minSdkVersion 11
        targetSdkVersion 19
    }

    buildTypes {
        release {
            runProguard false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.txt'
        }
    }
}
repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven {
        credentials {
            username "[email protected]"
            password "test"
        }
        url "https://bitbucket.org/test/maven-repo/raw/master/repository/"
    }
}
dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:20.+'
    compile 'com.test.com:testCommon:1.0'
    compile files('libs/GoogleAdMobAdsSdk-6.4.1.jar')
}

I am not sure what I am doing wrong here. I have also followed this link. Can anybody help me in fixing this.

Update 1:

When I checked ~.gradle folder, even after giving the credentials it is not logging in and saving the full page. When I changed my repo from private to public the code started working. But I do not want to make my repo public. How to make gradle to use the login credentials passed?

Thanks.

Answer 1

I fixed the issue by changing repo path to :

"https://"+username+":"+password+"@bitbucket.org/test/maven-repo/raw/master/repository/"

UserName and password are set in gradle.properties.
