Cannot locate rx-lifx package on Maven (or other) repositories

[Venryx]

Today I had to clear my gradle cache folder (C:\Users\MY_USERNAME\.gradle\caches) to fix a cache bug, and after doing so, Android Studio was complaining that it couldn't find the "rx-lifx" package (neither the version I had been using, 0.0.11, nor the latest version 0.1.1-alpha).

I did an online search for rx-lifx, and can't find it in the Maven, etc. repositories. For example, this search for "lifx" does not find it (but it does find the "jlifx" package): https://central.sonatype.com/search?q=lifx

Any idea why it seems to be gone from the Maven repository? Or was it hosted in some other repository originally? (I can't seem to find it in any repository at least)

Hi @Venryx,
Yeah this was hosted on bintray which apparently was completely shut down yesterday.
It will require some rework to set this up to to publish somewhere else.

To solve your immediate problem, you could apply the following patch, and then run ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal, which will publish and make it available on your local machine if you add mavenLocal() as a repository in your project.
