The following basic settings are common for all package types.

Setting

Description

Package Type

The package type must be specified when the repository is created, and once set, cannot be changed.

Repository Key

The repository key is a mandatory, unique identifier for the repository. It cannot begin with a number or contain spaces or special characters.

Environments

Defines the environment in which this repository will reside. Environments aggregate project resources (repositories, Pipeline sources, etc.) to simplify their management. For more information, see Environments.Environments

Repository Layout

Sets the layout that the repository should use for storing and identifying modules. A recommended layout that corresponds to the package type defined is suggested.

Public Description

A free text field that describes the content and purpose of the repository. This description can be viewed by all users with access to the repository.

Internal Description

A free text field to add additional notes about the repository. These notes are visible only to the administrator.

Include and Exclude Patterns

The Include Patterns and Exclude Patterns fields provide a way to filter out specific repositories when resolving the location of different artifacts.

In each field, you can specify a list of Ant-like patterns to filter in and filter out artifact queries. Filtering works by subtracting the excluded patterns (default is none) from the included patterns (default is all).

Example:

Consider that the Include Patterns and Exclude Patterns for a repository are as follows:

Include Patterns: org/apache/**,com/acme/**

Exclude Patterns:

com/acme/exp-project/**

In this example, the repository is searched for org/apache/maven/parent/1/1.pom and com/acme/project-x/core/1.0/nit-1.0.jar but not for com/acme/exp-project/core/1.1/san-1.1.jar because com/acme/exp-project/** is specified as an Exclude pattern.
