How to produce html cross-reference for all project's Java sources?

Is there an easy way to produce HTML cross-reference for all project’s Java sources? I think about something similar to [Maven JXR Plugin] (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-jxr-plugin/).

I asked the same more than 1 year ago into the mailing list, with no response. Just hope in the meantime something arisen. Some years ago laso appeared something similar on http://groovy.329449.n5.nabble.com/Groovydoc-td387710.html

I’m not aware of anything like this that exists at this time.

Is JXR a standalone tool? Or is it coupled to Maven?

I’m not sure, but I guess it was born under maven project. However I’ve seen there’s ant task that maybe could be used from gradle…

This way we could obtain a great project documentation toolkit (beside asciidoctor-gradle plugin). You could link sources’ crossreference with the corresponding Javadoc

Contributions always welcome :slight_smile:

This would be a very welcome one indeed.

Ok, I’ll give it a look as soon as possible, in the meantime… here you are the core maven entry point http://maven.apache.org/jxr//xref/org/apache/maven/jxr/JXR.html Not so bad :slight_smile: Other info https://maven.apache.org/jxr/examples/java.html

@Luke I’m working on https://github.com/davidecavestro/gradle-jxr-plugin I just have to find the right way to automatically publish the jar to bintray in order to release a first minimal version.

Just released https://github.com/davidecavestro/gradle-jxr-plugin Take version 0.1 as a first proof of concept (to-do list plenty of tasks). Contributions welcome :wink:
