Package org.gradle.api.publish.ivy

Interface IvyModuleDescriptorSpec

public interface IvyModuleDescriptorSpec
The descriptor of any Ivy publication.

Corresponds to the XML version of the Ivy Module Descriptor.

The withXml(org.gradle.api.Action) method can be used to modify the descriptor after it has been generated according to the publication data. However, the preferred way to customize the project information to be published is to use the dedicated configuration methods exposed by this class, e.g. description(Action).

    • withXml

      void withXml(Action<? super XmlProvider> action)
      Allow configuration of the descriptor, after it has been generated according to the input data. 
       plugins {
     id 'ivy-publish'
 }

 publishing {
   publications {
     ivy(IvyPublication) {
       descriptor {
         withXml {
           asNode().dependencies.dependency.find { it.@org == "junit" }.@rev = "4.10"
         }
       }
     }
   }
 }
      Note that due to Gradle's internal type conversion system, you can pass a Groovy closure to this method and it will be automatically converted to an Action.

      Each action/closure passed to this method will be stored as a callback, and executed when the publication that this descriptor is attached to is published.

      For details on the structure of the XML to be modified, see the Ivy Module Descriptor reference.

      Parameters:
      action - The configuration action.
