Herve Boutemy commented on MSITE-723:
-------------------------------------
I moved the issue to MSITE, since this behaviour is coded in maven-site-plugin,
not in MPIR
> "About" report generated even though index.apt is available in
> "generated-site"
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MSITE-723
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-723
> Project: Maven Site Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0, 3.0, 3.4
> Reporter: Andrius Velykis
> Attachments: mvn-site-index.zip
>
>
> Normally, if there is an apt/index.apt file in the /src/site directory, About
> report is not generated, and the following message is displayed: Skipped
> "About" report, file "index.html" already exists for the English version.
> Expecting the same behaviour, I have a situation, where the index.apt file is
> generated automatically (e.g. copied from somewhere) during `pre-site` phase.
> maven-site-plugin allows specifying an additional `generatedSiteDirectory`
> parameter for these files (see
> http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-site-plugin/site-mojo.html).
> However, in this case, the "About" report is generated and overrides the
> copied file from `generatedSiteDirectory` parameter.
> I would expect the "About" report to be not generated, if index.apt is
> available in the `generatedSiteDirectory`.
> I have attached a sample project, which uses `antrun` to copy a file to
> /target/generated-site/apt/index.apt. When you run `mvn site`, it will still
> display the default "About" page. As an example that `generatedSiteDirectory`
> works, I also copy the same file to index-copy.apt and an index-copy.html is
> generated correctly.
