ASF GitHub Bot commented on DOXIA-614: -------------------------------------- abelsromero commented on a change in pull request #35: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-doxia/pull/35#discussion_r451014972 ########## File path: doxia-core/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/doxia/parser/AbstractXmlParser.java ########## @@ -100,7 +98,7 @@ private boolean validate = false; /** {@inheritDoc} */ - public void parse( Reader source, Sink sink ) + public void parse( Reader source, Sink sink, String reference ) Review comment: Effectively, it is not. As explained in the JIRA issue the PR aims to be that the default method instead of the other one with 2 arguments. The way it is implemented right now, even when `Parser` interface has two method, the one with thre is not usable by how it's overriden in `AbstractParser` and never invoked in `DefaultDoxia`. The final goal is to deprecate the one with two arguments so that any plugin can obtain the metadata of the sourcefile bien processed. I am available to discuss online if anyone needs to, because I am bit confused by how this review is proceding. I think the JIRA issue, explanation here and the additional diagram provide a clear description of the goals and changes done which are the complex topics. However, I am seeing a focus on minor things. Furthermore, I raised 2 important points in the JIRA issue which had had no answer and which imo are worth discussing, one related to problems with the build and the other with testing. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.

Base implementation 'org.apache.maven.doxia.parser.AbstractParser' > ('doxia-core') of the reference method calls the other, removing the > reference if it is provided. > {code:java} > public void parse( Reader source, Sink sink, String reference ) > throws ParseException > { > parse( source, sink ); > }{code} > 2. In 'org.apache.maven.doxia.DefaultDoxia#parse' ('doxia-core') the parser > method 'parser (reader, sink)' is called at the end, which means > 'parser(reader, sink, reference)' is never used. > > {code:java} > public void parse( Reader source, String parserId, Sink sink ) > throws ParserNotFoundException, ParseException > { > Parser parser = parserManager.getParser( parserId ); > parser.enableLogging( new PlexusLoggerWrapper( getLogger() ) ); > parser.parse( source, sink ); > } > {code} > > 3. 'org.apache.maven.doxia.Doxia#parse(Reader source, String parserId, Sink > sink )' and it's implementation 'DefaultDoxia' ('doxia-core') does not > receive the source reference, so it cannot pass it in any way. > > For these 3 reasons, > 'org.apache.maven.doxia.siterenderer.DefaultSiteRenderer#renderDocument' > ('doxia-sitetools') who has the source reference is not able to pass it to > the above components. > To sum up, the chaing of calls is: DefaultSiteRenderer -> Doxia/DefaultDoxia > -> Parser implementation (e.g. AbstractParser) > > After discussion with [~hboutemy] the proposal is to fix it in several steps > to avoid using SNAPSHOTS and ensure no breaking points: > # Change doxia-core components to support new method with "reference", still > having both methods. This means, changing AbstractParser and it's > implementations to recieve the "reference". This does not break anything > since no one is using this param now. > # Change doxia-sitetools's 'DefaultSiteRenderer' component to pass the > reference to Doxia/DefautDoxia DOXIASITETOOLS-225. > # Release new doxia-sitetools version. > # Once released, modifty doxia-core components to pass the reference and > remove the (Reader, Sink) method completely. Also, in advance that Parsers > may need more information about the source, instead of passing "String > reference", we will pass a new class "SourceMetadata" that encapsulates the > "String reference. That way we can add more information in the future if > needed. > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
