Travis CI: Deploy JAR to Github Releases - travis-ci

Question

I want to use Travis to create nice posts in Github Releases after commit in master
This is what I need:
establish custom title
establish custom description
Publish only build without source code zip
I tried everything I could, but I could only add the binary to the release. Here is my config:
language: java
sudo: false
install: gradle wrapper --gradle-version 4.2
jdk:
- oraclejdk8
script:
- chmod +x gradlew
- "./gradlew test"
- "./gradlew build"
- "./gradlew jar"
- cd build # test
- ls
- cd libs
- ls
- pwd
- echo $TRAVIS_BUILD_NUMBER
cache:
directories:
- "$HOME/.gradle"
- ".gradle"
before_deploy:
# Set up git user name and tag this commit
- git config --local user.name "RareScrap"
- git config --local user.email "RareScrap#users.noreply.github.com"
- export GIT_TAG=$TRAVIS_BRANCH-v0.1.$TRAVIS_BUILD_NUMBER
- git tag $GIT_TAG -a -m "Generated tag from TravisCI for build $TRAVIS_BUILD_NUMBER"
deploy:
provider: releases
api_key:
secure: [redacted]
file: "/home/travis/build/RareScrap/travis.test/build/libs/*"
skip_cleanup: true
file_glob: true
on:
repo: RareScrap/travis.test
branches: # ← new! ghjgjghjghjghj
only: # ← new!
- master # ← new!

Answer 1

The GitHub Releases API can accept:
[String] name - Name for the release
[String] body - Content for release notes
[Boolean] draft - Mark this release as a draft
[Boolean] prerelease - Mark this release as a pre-release
Source.
As for only on master, use on instead of only.
Therefore, simply add change your deploy:
deploy:
provider: releases
api_key:
secure: [redacted]
file: "/home/travis/build/RareScrap/travis.test/build/libs/*"
skip_cleanup: true
file_glob: true
on:
repo: RareScrap/travis.test
branches: # ← new! ghjgjghjghjghj
only: # ← new!
- master # ← new!
to this:
deploy:
provider: releases
api_key:
secure: [redacted]
file: "/home/travis/build/RareScrap/travis.test/build/libs/*"
skip_cleanup: true
file_glob: true
on:
repo: RareScrap/travis.test
branch: master
name: $YOUR_RELEASE_NAME
body: $YOUR_RELEASE_CONTENT
Feel free to reference my .travis.yml file where I did a very similar thing.
Hope this helps!
