# Interface IvyPatternRepositoryLayout

All Superinterfaces:
  `RepositoryLayout`

public interface IvyPatternRepositoryLayout extends RepositoryLayout
A repository layout that uses user-supplied patterns. Each pattern will be appended to the base URI for the repository. At least one artifact pattern must be specified. If no Ivy patterns are specified, then the artifact patterns will be used. Optionally supports a Maven style layout for the 'organisation' part, replacing any dots with forward slashes. For examples see the reference for `IvyArtifactRepository.patternLayout(Action)`.
