android - How do I fix a basic(BasicAuthentication) call in Gradle authentication setup when it is not documented and not workin

I'm trying to set up the Mapbox SDK for use in Android Studio, which requires authentication setup. In every example I can find, it's supposed to be set up approximately like this in the dependencyResolutionManagement block in settings.gradle:

maven {
    url = uri("URL HERE")
    authentication {
        basic(BasicAuthentication)
    }
    credentials {
        username = "mapbox"
        password = "" // private token here.
    }
}

This is just giving a build error and the authentication basic(BasicAuthentication) seems to be the problem. This call is in every example I can find, but the basic() function seems to be returning the wrong type, and anyways I cannot for the life of me find the docs for that function, including what package it's in so that I can import the correct one.

Since every examples gives this code, I have tried to build the project using the setup with basic(), but I'm getting the error message:

Classifier 'BasicAuthentication' does not have a companion object, and thus must be initialized here

This seems to result from basic() being defined as returning a "SafeList" object, which seems completely wrong as the parameter of the authentication() method is to be an Action object. So I can't "find" or import the correct basic() function.

• 1 Could you please confirm that you are editing settings.gradle (Groovy syntax) and not settings.gradle.kts (Kotlin syntax)? – CommonsWare Commented Mar 11 at 17:05
• @CommonsWare You're right, at about the same time as you commented I found out that every guide I had looked at assumed Groovy for build config, while I'm using Kotlin. So yeah. When I updated it accordingly, it seemed to work - posting an answer about this. Thank you! – heisveis Commented Mar 12 at 16:31

So I found out that every guide I looked at, assumed that Gradle setup was done with Groovy (in settings.gradle), while I was using Kotlin (hence editing settings.gradle.kts), and did not realize this. To update the auth setup accordingly with the correct syntax for Kotlin:

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositories {
        maven(url = uri("URL HERE")) {
            credentials {
                username = "username"
                password = "" // private token here.
            }
            authentication.create<BasicAuthentication>("basic")
        }
    }
}

From your description you are missing a repositories block. It should look like this:

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url = uri("URL HERE")
            authentication {
                basic(BasicAuthentication)
            }
            credentials {
                username = "mapbox"
                password = "" // private token here.
            }
        }
    }
}

Here, basic is not a regular function but the name a of domain object of type BasicAuthentication you are creating inside the AuthenticationContainer. You should be able to call it whatever you like.
