Requires projectdoc

Requires Maven Extension
4.0.2

Overview

This extension provides a space blueprint to create a space based on a Maven POM. The POM information is added as Metadata documents and their information is made available as space properties. All metadata documents (currently it is only one that contains all POM information) are added as subpages to a Version document. This makes it easy to switch versions for the documentation of a space and its references to resources on remote servers (such as Nexus or Javadoc reports on a Maven site).

If developers add Topic documents of the Main type, these articles will automatically be listed under the documentation section. This section will be placed between the Overview and the References section once at least on such topic is defined.

Beta Status

 

Please note that this extension is in beta status. We are experimenting with the integration of Maven artifacts and not everything is running as smoothly as you would expect from the final release.

We would be happy to receive your feedback about what you like most and would love to hear what features your would like to be improved!
