I am using shadowJar in my java project. I would like to push the outcome into artifactory.

My gradle script look like this, I am not sure how to connect the dots:

Answer 1

The API has changed in the shadow plugin, this works for me with com.github.jengelman.gradle.plugins:shadow:2.0.1: http://imperceptiblethoughts.com/shadow/#publishing_shadow_jars

5. Publishing Shadow JARs
5.1. Publishing with Maven-Publish Plugin
The Shadow plugin will automatically configure the necessary tasks 
in the presence of Gradle’s maven-publish plugin. The plugin provides
the component method from the shadow extension to configure the 
publication with the necessary artifact and dependencies in the 
POM file.

Publishing a Shadow JAR with the Maven-Publish Plugin
apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
apply plugin: 'com.github.johnrengelman.shadow'

publishing {
  publications {
    shadow(MavenPublication) { publication ->
      project.shadow.component(publication)
    }
  }
  repositories {
    maven {
      url "http://repo.myorg.com"
    }
  }
}
