While trying to mvn packge over https://github.com/maoo/maven-tiles-examples

using 2.8 and

<build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>io.repaint.maven</groupId>
        <artifactId>tiles-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>${maventiles.plugin.version}</version>
        <extensions>true</extensions>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

Your tiles plugin definitions are in the children rather than the parent right?

Richard, that is just the only GitHub example I found at https://github.com/maoo/maven-tiles-examples

This issue is not about to make it pass, but to have an example to point from README

@talios

[rbygrave]

FYI: If people are looking for more examples there are some in: https://github.com/avaje-pom tile-runnable-jar tile-pygments-doclet tile-dependency-tree tile-kotlin-compile tile-java-compile tile-ebean-enhancement

I think it would be good for the documentation to reference more recent of examples (the maoo examples are 4 years old and not in the correct format now etc).

@paulvi - that project is nothing to do with this project (apart from the genesis idea), which is possibly why you are having trouble :-(

@talios also has some examples, but thanks @rbygrave !

[talios]

@rbygrave I look forward to a documentation Gerrit Review in your future :)

[rbygrave]

I'll add it to the list. Probably get to it around .... 2018 :)

[rbygrave]

Er, that was a cheeky comment from me.

On a more serious note I'd rate tiles as massively important ... And to me the documentation does need some attention. So I'll take this offline (do you want a full website etc).

Of hand I'd say ... People generally know less than you think and more explanation of why tiles exists might be good.

[talios]

@rbygrave Mine was equally as cheeky as well. Thankfully we know each other. Documentation is always one of the hardest things in software I think.

[paulvi]

as for me, I am looking for showcase example. That would also be test suit for all tiles features.

Hi, I just found out of this plugin exists. The idea is gread but I have no idea how to use it.

It would help a lot if you could provide a simple example with maybe 2 or 3 tiles used in an simple Hello World application.
