    • getRepositories

      RepositoryHandler getRepositories()
      The container of possible repositories to publish to.

      See repositories(org.gradle.api.Action) for more information.

      Returns:
      The container of possible repositories to publish to.

    • repositories

      void repositories(Action<? super RepositoryHandler> configure)
      Configures the container of possible repositories to publish to. 
       plugins {
     id 'publishing'
 }

 publishing {
   repositories {
     // Create an ivy publication destination named “releases”
     ivy {
       name = "releases"
       url = "http://my.org/ivy-repos/releases"
     }
   }
 }
      The repositories block is backed by a RepositoryHandler, which is the same DSL as that that is used for declaring repositories to consume dependencies from. However, certain types of repositories that can be created by the repository handler are not valid for publishing, such as RepositoryHandler.mavenCentral().

      At this time, only repositories created by the ivy() factory method have any effect. Please see IvyPublication for information on how this can be used for publishing to Ivy repositories.

      Parameters:
      configure - The action to configure the container of repositories with.

    • getPublications

      PublicationContainer getPublications()
      The publications of the project.

      See publications(org.gradle.api.Action) for more information.

      Returns:
      The publications of this project.

    • publications

      void publications(Action<? super PublicationContainer> configure)
      Configures the publications of this project.

      The publications container defines the outgoing publications of the project. That is, the consumable representations of things produced by building the project. An example of a publication would be an Ivy Module (i.e. ivy.xml and artifacts), or Maven Project (i.e. pom.xml and artifacts).

      Actual publication implementations and the ability to create them are provided by different plugins. The “publishing” plugin itself does not provide any publication types. For example, given that the 'maven-publish' plugin provides a MavenPublication type, you can create a publication like: 

       plugins {
     id 'maven-publish'
 }

 publishing {
   publications {
     myPublicationName(MavenPublication) {
       // Configure the publication here
     }
   }
 }

      Please see IvyPublication and MavenPublication for more information on publishing in these specific formats.

      Parameters:
      configure - The action or closure to configure the publications with.
