# IvyRep Resolver
Tag | ivyrep
Handle latest | yes, at least if the repository server is apache based
Handle publish | no
This resolver usually uses an URL based repository usually similar in structure to ivyrep to find ivy files, and ibiblio to find artifacts. It can also be configured to use other similar repositories. Since ivyrep is not maintained anymore, the ivyroot attribute is mandatory, and the use of this resolver is not recommended (we recommend using url resolver as replacement in most cases). # Attributes This resolver shares the common attributes of standard resolvers.
Attribute | Description | Required
--- | --- | ---
ivyroot | the root of the ivy repository. | Yes, but may be provided through ${ivy.ivyrep.default.ivy.root} since 2.0
ivypattern | a pattern describing the layout of the ivy repository. | No, defaults to ${ivy.ivyrep.default.ivy.pattern}
artroot | the root of the artifacts repository. | No, defaults to ${ivy.ivyrep.default.artifact.root}
artpattern | a pattern describing the layout of the artifacts repository. | No, defaults to ${ivy.ivyrep.default.artifact pattern}
