Konrad Windszus updated DOXIASITETOOLS-348:
-------------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.0.0
> Extend site descriptor to enforce a parent
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DOXIASITETOOLS-348
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DOXIASITETOOLS-348
> Project: Maven Doxia Sitetools
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Site model
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M19
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Assignee: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> Currently the [site
> descriptor|https://maven.apache.org/doxia/doxia-sitetools/doxia-site-model/site.html]
> does not allow to enforce a parent {{site.xml}}.
> The attribute {{combine.self}} does not lead to a failure in case no parent
> {{site.xml}} can be found.
> This may easily lead to broken sites without breaking the site build as
> a) the site transparently inherits the {{site.xml}} attached to the parent
> POM.
> b) attaching the {{site.xml}} to a project is a manual step
> (https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-site-plugin/attach-descriptor-mojo.html)
> As at the time when the descriptor of the derived {{site.xml}} is created it
> is known whether the descriptor works standalone or requires a parent
> {{site.xml}}, therefore this should be made explicit in the site descriptor.
> I propose to add an additional attribute {{requireParent}} on the top level
> element which is {{false}} by default (current behaviour). If set to {{true}}
> it should lead to a build failure in case the parent {{site.xml}} cannot be
> resolved (for whatever reason).
