How can I disable the Maven Javadoc plugin from the command line?

问题

In pom.xml I have declaration like this

    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
        <executions>
            <execution>
                <id>attach-javadocs</id>
                <goals>
                    <goal>jar</goal>
                </goals>
            </execution>
        </executions>
    </plugin>

is there any way to turn that off from command line?

I do know I can extract that into a profile, but that is not what I want.

回答1:

The Javadoc generation can be skipped by setting the property maven.javadoc.skip to true [1], i.e.

-Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true

(and not false)

回答2:

It seems, that the simple way

-Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true

does not work with the release-plugin. in this case you have to pass the parameter as an "argument"

mvn release:perform -Darguments="-Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true"

回答3:

You can use the maven.javadoc.skip property to skip execution of the plugin, going by the Mojo's javadoc. You can specify the value as a Maven property:

<properties>
    <maven.javadoc.skip>true</maven.javadoc.skip>
</properties>

or as a command-line argument: -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true, to skip generation of the Javadocs.

Add to the release plugin config in the root-level pom.xml:

<configuration>
    <arguments>-Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true</arguments>
</configuration>
