Hervé thanks for spotting someone had problems that may be
un-addressed, I completely missed following that through.

Re: Do people actually use markdown or should I abandon it and migrate to xdocs?

2015-03-13 Thread Hervé BOUTEMY
community is large: a lot of people use a lot of formats with maven-site-
plugin
and a lot of people have their own opinion about the format for the future :)

That's the first time I hear about 10 minutes to generate the hand-written 
markup (whatever the format is or the number of files): what can take time are 
the reports, but not markup
For example, 10 seconds is the time to render markup from the Maven's site
[INFO] Rendering 185 Doxia documents: 144 apt, 4 fml, 28 markdown, 9 xdoc

Can you please open a Jira issue, with example or at least log for me to 
understand where time is going?
(in maven-site-plugin 3.4, I added the previous output to more clearly 
distinguish reports from handwritten Doxia documents, see MSITE-714)


Then that's the first time I hear about maven-site-plugin's Markdown threading 
issues: is there any Jira issue about it, with example to reproduce?

notice that multi-module site plugin already stresses core regarding reports 
(with aggregate reports requiring modules): I don't think building the site in 
parallel is a great idea, or at least that it is really well tested
Perhaps you should aboid this one (you don't build the site on each code 
build, aren't you?)

Regards,

Hervé

 1. it’s super slow.  I have a moderate sized project (10 small files) and

 2.  It’s buggy.  If you have two projects and a multi-module build you
 can’t use threaded builds.
 
 Now it looks as if my documentation generation has completely locked up.
 I’m not sure what change I made but 9/10 times I run it locks up in an

 I imagine if no one else is actually using it then I should probably just
 use what the community is running.

Thanks.  IF these are used in big projects like this I’ll probably just
migrate.

It’s good to be pragmatic sometimes!

 The Maven and Nexus books are also using asciidoc as a format btw.

Wasn't there some talk about using reStructuredText at some stage?

I'm only just tinkering with that now on other projects so I have not
investigated whether the Maven pipeline supports it.
