Re: Variable substitution in xdocs

[Jeffrey Bonevich]

dIon -

This works very nicely for the toplevel project (the one from which you 
run multiproject) but appears to have no impact on subprojects - cannot 
get at anything in those apparently.  What I am trying to do is:

* iterate over all the projects at the top level (which can be done as 
in navigation-aggregate.xml)
* get at individual pom properties at the subproject level (so I want a 
link to the current version of jar file for each subproject w/o having 
to hard-code the version in navigation.xml) (this apparently cannot be done)

Have a look at the navigation-aggregate.xml template that's part of 
multiproject.

It does something like this:

    #foreach ($reactorProject in $reactorProjects)
      <item name="$reactorProject.name" 
href="/${aggregateDir}${reactorProject.artifactId}/index.html"/>
    #end

And reactorProject is just a POM.

I have tried setting up a very simple multiproject (a master project and 


one subproject) - still no go for $pom or $project.  Definetely gets 
$reactorProjects in the top level, but not much else I can find in the 
subproject.  Is there a context at which I can get that could spit out 
the names of all variables available to the page when processing?

From memory the xdocs plugin will look in target/navigation.xml for a 
generated file in preference to ${maven.docs.src}/navigation.xml.

multiproject uses this to pre-process the nav file.

You could simply steal the stuff from multiproject.....

I want to refer to pom specific values in my navigation.xml file (i.e. 


current version, etc.).  Can I do variable substitution in xdoc 

plugin? 

Since it is velocity based I assume so, but I can find no 
documentation that tells me what variables I can refer to.  ${pom} and 


${reactorProject} do not seem to be among them.  I have seen one 

example 


that used a velocity forEach loop and refers to the variable 
$reactorProjects.  This was in the context of a multi-project; 

involved 

setting an attribute on maven:reactor (postprocessing=true).  I 

suspect 

maybe I can break in here with maven.xml and add my own variables to 
reference in my xdocs, but thought I would ask before rolling my own.

What ever anyone can feed me, I will be happy to compile and put on 

the 

wiki.
