# Interface PublicationContainer

All Superinterfaces:
  `Collection<Publication>, Configurable<NamedDomainObjectContainer<Publication>>, DomainObjectCollection<Publication>, DomainObjectSet<Publication>, ExtensiblePolymorphicDomainObjectContainer<Publication>, Iterable<Publication>, NamedDomainObjectCollection<Publication>, NamedDomainObjectContainer<Publication>, org.gradle.api.internal.rules.NamedDomainObjectFactoryRegistry<Publication>, NamedDomainObjectSet<Publication>, PolymorphicDomainObjectContainer<Publication>, Set<Publication>`

public interface PublicationContainer extends ExtensiblePolymorphicDomainObjectContainer<Publication>
A `PublicationContainer` is responsible for creating and managing `Publication` instances. The set of available publication types is dependent on the application of particular plugins:

- The `MavenPublishPlugin` makes it possible to create `MavenPublication` instances.
- The `IvyPublishPlugin` makes it possible to create `IvyPublication` instances.

    plugins {
        id 'ivy-publish'
    }

    publishing.publications.create('publication-name', IvyPublication) {
        // Configure the ivy publication here
    }

The usual way to add publications is via a configuration block. See the documentation for `PublishingExtension.publications(org.gradle.api.Action)` for examples of how to create and configure publications.
