Generate aggregate Javadoc without duplicate execution of phase compile.
- The standard goals
aggregate
andtest-aggregate
invoke separate lifecylescompile
andtest-compile
. - In a CI environment you now might execute something like
mvn clean deploy site site-deploy
. - During
site
build the standard reports will triggercompile
ortest-compile
again, depending on your build this may take some time, because stuff likeenforcer
or generating stubs from a WDSL will be invoked again, which may lead to longer build times. - As of version 3.0.1 two new reports are defined,
aggregate-no-fork
andtest-aggregate-no-fork
which will not trigger above phases a second time. - Configure this in your
reporting
section as follows:<project> ... <reporting> <excludeDefaults>true</excludeDefaults> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId> <version>3.6.2</version> <reportSets> <reportSet> <reports> <report>aggregate-no-fork</report> <report>test-aggregate-no-fork</report> </reports> </reportSet> </reportSets> </plugin> </plugins> </reporting> ... </project>
