        Key: MPPLUGIN-21
    Summary: Autogenerate plugin.properties and properties documentation
       Type: New Feature

     Status: Open
   Priority: Minor

    Project: maven-plugin-plugin

Description:
As sent to the developer list this is a suggestion of how to create and document plugin properties easier.

- Create an xml file called plugin-properties.xml

In the plugin project:
- Process it to generate the properties.xml xdoc using <report>maven-plugin-plugin</report>
- Process it to generate the plugin.properties file (goal plugin:generate-properties), maybe in the future there will be support for reading properties directly from it.


Just one issue, I wasn't able to add a newline character in a jsl file:
    <jsl:template match="property">
        <j:set var="name"><x:expr select="@name"/></j:set>
        <j:set var="default"><x:expr select="@default"/></j:set>
        ${name}=${default}<!-- Here there should be a newline -->
    </jsl:template>


Examples:

The base file
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/aspectj/plugin-properties.xml

The generated documentation
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/aspectj/properties.html

The DTD
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/aspectj/plugin_properties_1_0.dtd
