In Gradle, build.gradle file specifies repositories to search dependencies of projects. Gradle support repositories configuration for Ivy and Maven.

Maven Repository

You can configure maven repositories in Gradle in multiple ways:

1. Maven Central Repository

   repositories {
       mavenCentral()
   }

2. Maven Repository by  Target URL

   repositories {
       maven {url "http://repo.myoffice.com/maven2"}
   }

3. Maven Repository for Other Target       For example Bintray as Maven repository

   repositories {
       maven ("http://jcenter.bintray.com/")
   }

Ivy Repository

You can also set Ivy repository as below.

repositories {
    ivy { url "http://repo.mycompany.com/repo"}
}

Dependencies from Multiple Repositories

You can add multiple dependencies at once.

repositories {
   maven ("https://repository-engine.forge.cloudbees.com/snapshot/")
   jcenter {
      url "http://jcenter.bintray.com/"
   }
}

Now you have learned about the ways to configure Gradle repositories in build.gradle file to search dependencies. In case if you want to use dependencies from your local file system you can figure that also in the dependencies section. Check Gradle: Dependencies Configuration to know more about it.
