gradle-aggregate-javadocs-plugin
In a multi-project setup containing one or many Java-based projects, Javadocs are only created for individual subprojects. There are certain use cases that requires you merge Javadocs for all subprojects of your build. Creating a reusable library that is partitioned into sub-functionality but shipped together is a typical example. This plugin adds a task to the root project of the build allowing to aggregate Javadocs across all subprojects.
Usage
Applying the Plugin
To include, add the following to your build.gradle
buildscript {
repositories { jcenter() }
dependencies {
classpath 'com.netflix.nebula:gradle-aggregate-javadocs-plugin:2.2.+'
}
}
apply plugin: 'nebula-aggregate-javadocs'
Aggregating Javadocs
To aggregate Javadocs across all subprojects, execute the task aggregateJavadocs
available to the root project. The task declares a task dependencies on the task javadoc
provided by the Java plugin. The resulting Javadoc report is located in the directory project.buildDir/docs/javadoc
.
