[jira] Created: (MSITE-555) site:clean option to clear out
target/site directories
site:clean option to clear out target/site directories
------------------------------------------------------
Key: MSITE-555
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-555
Project: Maven 2.x and 3.x Site Plugin
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: SebbASF
It would be useful to have a simple method of cleaning out target/site directories.
This would help when testing skins to ensure that the correct images etc are installed, but would also help when rebuilding, as site:site skips some rebuilds if the files already exist.
By default it should clear all the contents of each target/site, but it might be useful to be able to exclude certain subdirectories (e.g. apidocs).

-------------------------------
Because the clean plugin clears out all the classes etc, which are then rebuilt by default when running mvn site.
This can waste a lot of time.

-------------------------------------
You can configure the clean plugin to include only taget/site, and run it from a profile.
I don't think removing target/site is good enough for a generic clean goal because a lot of stuff is generated first somewhere else, eg generated sources, reports, etc, that also influence the site.

-------------------------------
In that case, it would be all the more useful to have a clean option to take care of all these additional directories.
