Hervé Boutemy commented on MPLUGIN-297: --------------------------------------- simply removing plugins section does not looks a good idea Perhaps messages can be improved to explain about pluginManagement vs plugins: don't hesitate to provide PR [https://github.com/apache/maven-plugin-tools/blob/master/maven-plugin-plugin/src/main/resources/plugin-report.properties] keys are {{report.plugin.usage.pluginManagement}} and {{report.plugin.usage.plugins}} > plugin-info.html should contain a better Usage section > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MPLUGIN-297 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPLUGIN-297 > Project: Maven Plugin Tools > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Plugin Plugin > Affects Versions: 3.4 > Reporter: Konrad Windszus > Priority: Major > Fix For: 3.6 > > Attachments: MPLUGIN-297-maven-plugin-tools.patch > > > The usage section in the page "plugin-info.html" being generated by the > {{report}} goal of the {{maven-plugin-plugin}} contains the version > information of the plugin in both sections {{pluginManagement}} as well as > {{plugins}}. I think it is best practice to only give out the version in the > {{pluginManagement}}. Therefore please remove the version from the > {{plugins}} section. > One example for that can be seen in > https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/plugin-info.html. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
