Claude Warren created MSITE-1016: ------------------------------------ Summary: site:stage should function without a URL specified in the POM Key: MSITE-1016 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSITE-1016 Project: Maven Site Plugin Issue Type: Bug Components: Maven 3 Affects Versions: 3.8.2 Reporter: Claude Warren
Note: actual version is 3.8.6 *Documentation states:* {quote}By default, the site will be staged in a directory {{{}target/staging/{}}}. {quote} *Issue description:* When I try to run site:stage without a site entry in the pom distrobutionManagement section I get an error that says the site entry must be specified. {quote}Specifying <distributionManagement> <site> <id>staging</id> </site> </distributionManagement> {quote} Will yield an error that states the URL must be specified. Entering an invalid URL solves the problem. {quote}<distributionManagement> <site> <id>staging</id> <url>invalid:url</url> </site> </distributionManagement> {quote} The above is literally the text in my pom file. *Desired setup:* I would like to see the URL be optional so that I can trigger the site:stage goal without having to specify the URL in the pom and without having to specify the stagingDirectory on the command line. I would also like this better documented. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
