A shared repository is a team level shared repository of a team. It is very common to be overridden in organizations.

Default Location

By default, shared repository is present in ${ivy.default.ivy.user.dir}/shared folder. If you want to change it, the use the ivy.shared.default.root variable in ant file.

build.xml

<target name="resolve">
   <property name="ivy.shared.default.root" value="/opt/ivy/repository/shared"/>
   <ivy:resolve />
</target>

Other properties like ivy pattern and artifact pattern can also be customized as follows −

build.xml

<target name="resolve">
   <property name="ivy.shared.default.root" value="/opt/ivy/repository/shared"/>
   <property name="ivy.shared.default.ivy.pattern" value="[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/ivy.xml"/>
   <property name="ivy.shared.default.artifact.pattern" value="[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[artifact].[ext]"/>
   <ivy:resolve />
</target>

Overriding ivysettings defaults

By default ivy has its configurations in ivysettings.xml present in ivy.jar.

ivysettings.xml

<ivysettings>
   <settings defaultResolver="default"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-public.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-shared.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-local.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-main-chain.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-default-chain.xml"/>
</ivysettings>

To override shared repository setting, update the contents of ivysettings-shared.xml.

ivysettings-shared.xml

<ivysettings>
   <property name="ivy.shared.default.root" value="${ivy.default.ivy.user.dir}/shared" override="false"/>
   <property name="ivy.shared.default.ivy.pattern" value="[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[type]s/[artifact].[ext]" override="false"/>
   <property name="ivy.shared.default.artifact.pattern" value="[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[type]s/[artifact].[ext]" override="false"/>
   <resolvers>
      <filesystem name="shared">
         <ivy pattern="${ivy.shared.default.root}/${ivy.shared.default.ivy.pattern}" />
         <artifact pattern="${ivy.shared.default.root}/${ivy.shared.default.artifact.pattern}" />
      </filesystem>
   </resolvers>
</ivysettings>
