Thanks for reporting this issue.
Could you kindly furnish additional details regarding your build script or the steps necessary to replicate the issue? Your input is valuable.

I have looked further into this, and it looks like my code is calling getPublisherConfig() right after constructing an ArtifactoryPluginConvention object. Based on the code seen here, it looks like doing so would result in a null returned, although there's no warning of this. It would seem that the only way to populate the publisherConfig object is to first call publish()

Generally speaking, I am trying to configure the plugin from within a Java class, and am not sure how to do it. The documentation in the README only covers Kotlin/Groovy configs.
