/project/custom/reflowSkin/pages/index@project-id="$artifactId" doesn't work as advertised. #27

Filtering a module by it's artifactId doesn't quite work because the test seems to use the given project-id as starting characters only. Consider this example:

<project>
    <custom>
        <reflowSkin>
            <pages>
                <index project-id="xyz">
                    <shortTitle>Welcome</shortTitle>
                    <breadcrumbs>false</breadcrumbs>
                </index>
            </pages>
        </reflowSkin>
    </custom>
</project>

Now consider if the submodules are named "xyz-api", "xyz-impl" etc then the configuration would be applied to them all.

The attribute is project, not project-id.

Assuming this is a typo in the issue report - is this what is really happening with your project? Because the code checks the project attribute value to be equal to the "slug" of the current project name - see line 200 at SkinConfigTool.

Do you have a reproducible example? Thanks!

Interesting. As said, I do get this weird behavior with the configuration as explained above. However, when I follow your advice and use the attribute name projectinstead of project-id, then it works as advertised. I suppose the code ignores the invalid attribute name and thus the element applies to all pages named index.*, right?

I got the attribute name from the documentation of this project, so may I suggest to update the documentation? You might even want to display an error message on any invalid attribute name.

andriusvelykis commented 10 years ago

Yea, if the code does not find the project attribute, per-project filtering does not happen and the element applies to all these pages. Supporting warnings for invalid attribute names would be quite a bit of additional work, though :)

Where in the documentation did you get this from? I gave a look at the source code and documentation and I did not find any project-id attributes used..

christian-schlichtherle commented 10 years ago

Sorry, I can't figure out anymore where I got the invalid attribute name project-id from.
