Reporting Plugins

Configuration

Reporting plugins are configured in the POM as in this example:

<project>
  ...
  <reporting>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-project-info-reports-plugin</artifactId>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </reporting>
  ...
</project>

Configuration in the reporting section also applies if plugin goals are invoked individually. The converse is not true-- if you configure the plugin inside <build>, that configuration will NOT apply to <reporting>.

Configuring multiple reports for one plugin using <reportSets>. Each <reportSet> must have a unique <id>. For more information on UMLGraph, see the UMLGraph site and this page.

<project>
   ...
    <reporting>
       <plugins>
         <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
            <reportSets>
               <reportSet>
                  <id>uml</id>
                  <configuration>
                     <doclet>gr.spinellis.umlgraph.doclet.UmlGraph</doclet>
                     <docletArtifact>
                        <groupId>gr.spinellis</groupId>
                        <artifactId>UmlGraph</artifactId>

                     </docletArtifact>
                     <additionalparam>-views</additionalparam>
                     <destDir>target/uml</destDir>
                     <show>private</show>

                     <show>private</show>
                  </configuration>
                  <reports>
                     <report>javadoc</report>
                  </reports>
