The Maven Plugin will create images for the diagrams based on the Documentation Project and deploy them on the Documentation Site. The Product Project may also generate reports from the source code and export them by the use of other plugins (e.g. buildmetadata-maven-plugin) to their own site. The main artifacts of the Product Project is deployed on the artifact server as usual. You may also add the documentation artifacts to the artifact server, but this is not shown in the diagram. The Confluence Wiki will then reference the generated artifacts and is therefore the main entry point to the documentation. |
