             Summary: Generation of slides from multiple input doesn't work correctly
                 Key: TRAINING-14
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRAINING-14
             Project: Apache Training
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Sönke Liebau


When building a slide deck that consists of multiple input .adoc files the build process doesn't always work, depending on the order that files are processed in.

 

On my linux laptop, when I build the test release that Justin created I get the following output:

 

 
{code:java}
[INFO] --- asciidoctor-maven-plugin:2.0.0-RC.1:process-asciidoc (generate-slides) @ navigating-ASF-incubation --- [INFO] Using 'UTF-8' encoding to copy filtered resources. [INFO] Copying 0 resource [INFO] Rendered /home/sliebau/Downloads/apache-training-navigating-ASF-incubation-1.0-incubating/src/main/asciidoc/index.adoc [WARNING] Duplicated destination found: overwriting file: /home/sliebau/Downloads/apache-training-navigating-ASF-incubation-1.0-incubating/target/generated-slides/index.html [INFO] Rendered /home/sliebau/Downloads/apache-training-navigating-ASF-incubation-1.0-incubating/src/main/asciidoc/projectstats.adoc [WARNING] Duplicated destination found: overwriting file: /home/sliebau/Downloads/apache-training-navigating-ASF-incubation-1.0-incubating/target/generated-slides/index.html [INFO] Rendered /home/sliebau/Downloads/apache-training-navigating-ASF-incubation-1.0-incubating/src/main/asciidoc/aboutme.adoc
{code}

And my index.html only contains the "about me" slide, because that apparently overwrote all content that was generated earlier.

On Mac systems the index.adoc seems to be processed last, so this creates proper output, but I assume that this issue would occur for Macs as well in different builds.

I think the issue comes from using the _outputFile_ parameter in the asciidoctor module. The documentation for this parameter states "Useful for backends that create a single file, e.g. the pdf backend. All output will be redirected to the same file" - and obviously omits the small fact that previous files are killed along the way.
