-------------------------------------

Looking at the code on GitHub I see the repo contains only the default ruleset.

Yes, that's the ruleset, that the maven-pmd-plugin provides and uses as
default, if no other rulesets are configured.
This means, that your configuration is not applied.
Looking at your poc code, I can see, that the configuration is applied when
running {{mvn site}} - and the rulesets are correctly extracted:
{code}
$ ls target/pmd/rulesets/
bestpractices.xml codestyle.xml design.xml documentation.xml errorprone.xml
multithreading.xml performance.xml security.xml
{code}
These rulesets are provided by PMD itself ->
https://pmd.github.io/latest/pmd_rules_java.html
Only when you run {{mvn pmd:pmd}} directly, your configuration is not applied -
that's because, in that case, the reporting configuration is not used and you
need to configure the m-pmd-p under {{<build>/<plugins>}} as a build plugin in
addition to the reporting plugin.

> When I run *_mvn site_* or *_mvn pmd:pmd_* no output is display on the
> console and the default ruleset is used since only
> *_target\pmd\rulesets\maven-pmd-plugin-default.xml_* is generated.
> Looking at the code on GitHub I see the repo contains only the default
> ruleset.
>
> Moreover the build plugin configuration does not support rulesets which would
> be a nice to have.
