[jira] Created: (MYFACES-1288) Document dependencies better

["Mike Kienenberger (JIRA)" <de...@myfaces.apache.org>]

Document dependencies better
----------------------------

         Key: MYFACES-1288
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-1288
     Project: MyFaces Core
        Type: Task

  Components: website  
    Reporter: Mike Kienenberger


We need to document dependencies better.

For example, http://myfaces.apache.org/impl/dependencies.html shows dependences that are only needed for testing or compiling rather than dependencies needed for running, which is what the end-user cares about. 

http://myfaces.apache.org/gettingstarted.html is frequently out of date as it is manually maintained.

It seems like the two above could be merged and automatically maintained by maven since maven should be tracking such dependency information already.

Furthermore, dependencies that only affect a certain component (and this is more of a tomahawk issue) should be identified as such.   In fact, the component template (and existing docs) should be updated to include a "dependencies" section.   For instance, certain validators depend on commons-validator.jar, and commons-fileupload-1.0.jar is required to use t:inputFileUpload.
