my plugin is invoked okay directly but not at all as part of site.
Dear People,
My mojo is built and installed.
I have specified the goal and phase thus:
* @goal merge
* @phase validate
I have added a reference to the <build> block of a shell project thus:
<plugin>
<groupId>com.davesag</groupId>
<artifactId>qalab-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>qalab-blah</id>
<phase>validate</phase>
<configuration>
<quiet>false</quiet>
<handler>net.objectlab.qalab.parser.CheckstyleStatMerge</handler>
<inputFile>${project.build.directory}/target/checkstyle-result.xml</inputFile>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>merge</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
when i type
mvn qalab:merge
i get an error telling me it can't read from the checkstyle results file.
this is a reasonable result.
BUT
in the reporting section of the pom.xml I have added
<plugin>
<groupId>com.davesag</groupId>
<artifactId>qalab-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
and when I type
mvn site
it's as if my plugin just wasn't even there. It never gets run.
the checkstyle report is run (yet to work out how to get it to export as
an xml file), and the javadocs are generated and so forth, but my qalab
plugin may as well not exist.
if i try deliberately breaking the name then maven complains that there is
no such plugin, so it's sort of working, but it's just not actually doing
anything.
is there a specific phase I need to bind to to get the reporting to work?
how can i be sure that the other reports have already run?
Kind regards,
Dave Sag

I've noted it for documentation, but as always the best way is to look
at an existing example.

Re: my plugin is invoked okay directly but not at all as part of site.
Posted by David Sag <ds...@epo.org>.
I took the day off work yesterday as I was sick, and took the time to
check out all the maven-plugins stuff from SVN. Reading through the code
I 'discovered' reference to the AbstractMavenReport - something that so
far has not made its way into the documentation, and which almost
certainly explains why my QALabMojo (which only extends AbstractMojo) is
not working as a report :-)
I'll look further into this today. Is there any documentation I should be
reading? Any more hidden classes I should know about? Or shoudl I just
read the entire source code?
I'm still not quite sure how I tell the report which goal to run however.
Kind regards,
Dave Sag

Re: my plugin is invoked okay directly but not at all as part of
site.
Posted by Brett Porter <br...@apache.org>.
It's hard without a full POM to tell exactly what you are doing. Let me
explain how this is processed.
Your Mojo should extend AbstractMavenReport, which enables it as both a
report and a mojo.
When running as a mojo, configuration is used with first winning:
1) build plugin execution configuration
2) build plugin general configuration
3) reporting plugin general configuration
When running as a report, configuration is used with the first winning:
1) reporting plugin individual report configuration
2) reporting plugin general configuration
So in general you configure the report in the reporting section, adding
configuration only specific to build executions in the build section.
Hope this helps.

Posted by David Sag <ds...@epo.org>.
still more on this.
if i move the configuration from out of the eexcutions and up into the
main plugin thus:
<plugin>
<groupId>com.davesag</groupId>
<artifactId>qalab-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<quiet>false</quiet>
<handler>net.objectlab.qalab.parser.CheckstyleStatMerge</handler>
<inputFile>${project.build.directory}/target/checkstyle-result.xml</inputFile>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>merge</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
the configuration is recongnised okay. but that's no good for me as i
need different configs for different goals.
Kind regards,
Dave Sag

Re: my plugin is invoked okay directly but not at all as part of site.
Posted by David Sag <ds...@epo.org>.
Even weirder -
the below is slightly wrong.
in my reporting block I must specify the plugin config again thus:
<plugin>
<groupId>com.davesag</groupId>
<artifactId>qalab-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<quiet>false</quiet>
<handler>net.objectlab.qalab.parser.CheckstyleStatMerge</handler>
<inputFile>${project.build.directory}/target/checkstyle-result.xml</inputFile>
</configuration>
</plugin>
or maven claims that i have not specified any parameters.
i still get nothing generated if i run mvn site however
if i remove the entire reporting block i get the same error, as if i had
not configured it.
so can someone please explain what the sotry is with plugin configuration?
it seems you must configure plugins both in the build section AND the
reporting section for anything to work.
similarly for the javadoc plugin, as of the latest change, i must now
specify source = 1.4 in both the rewporting configuration of the plugin,
AND the build configuration of the plugin.
am i just hopelessly confused?
Kind regards,
Dave Sag
