Asciidoctor Maven Plugin
The Asciidoctor Maven Plugin is the official way to convert your AsciiDoc documentation using Asciidoctor from an Apache Maven build.
The conversion can happen in 2 flavors:
-
as a Maven plugin: AsciiDoc files are converted at full Asciidoctor power independently from Maven site,
-
as a Maven site integration: AsciiDoc files are integrated with Maven reports, which comes with a few limitations (see below for details).
Full documentations is available in the USER MANUAL.
Quickstart
These are the minimal steps to convert your AsciiDoc documents to HTML with the asciidoctor-maven-plugin.
