 Hi All
 
 For Apache Tika, we currently use the Maven Site plugin, along with the
 APT format for our site content. We are looking to automatically pull in
 snippets of code from svn into the published site, much as the ASF CMS
 supports https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/scaling_down_the_cms_to
 
 I'm fairly happy about how to do the snippet-fetching part, what's
 stumping me is finding an example plugin to allow the Maven Site plugin to
 process additional kinds of markup in the APT format.
extending the markup, ie the syntax? Not possible: each supported markup 
language supported by Doxia is a done through a parser, and i don't know any 
parser that has such extension points (and I don't kow how this would be 
feasible)

 (Or failing that,
 any other simple-ish Maven Site plugin supported formats like Markdown)
there is a external Doxia extension which support including a snippet in 
another markup language: see Doxia :: Include Macro, 
http://doxia-include.sourceforge.net/

 
 Could anyone point me to an example for extending one of the formats like
 this?
the only generic extension solution for Doxia is macros (and IIRC, not 
available in each markup language): see 
http://maven.apache.org/doxia/macros/index.html

Regards,

Hervé

 
 Thanks
 Nick

Re: Plugins to extend the APT format? (For use with the Maven Site plugin)

2014-08-14 Thread Stephen Connolly
*Not answering your question* I think we have grown to favour moving away
from APT and towards Markdown or Asciidoc as a format at least on the Maven
team (note that we do not have good tooling for Asciidoc yet) most of our
new documentation is driven through Markdown.

I think there are really two plain text mark up formats left standing:
Markdown and Asciidoc. Of those I think Asciidoc is the better format as it
actually has a proper spec... but it could end up being the Betamax of
formats (i.e. technically the best but looses out due to amount of Markdown
usage out there)
