Package org.apache.maven.doxia.sink Description

Maven Doxia API.

The Doxia API is based on Sinks objects: each sink consumes Doxia events to produce a resultant output format (eg Docbook, PDF, XHTML...).

Using Maven Doxia API

The following snippet shows how to use a Doxia Sink:

File userDir = new File( System.getProperty ( "user.dir" ) );
File outputFile = new File( userDir, "test.html" );

SinkFactory sinkFactory = (SinkFactory) lookup( SinkFactory.ROLE, "html" ); // Plexus lookup
Sink sink = sinkFactory.createSink( outputFile.getParentFile(), outputFile.getName() ) );

// Sink head
sink.head();

sink.title();
sink.text( "Title" );
sink.title_();

sink.author();
sink.text( "Author" );
sink.author_();

sink.date();
sink.text( "Date" );
sink.date_();

sink.head_();
// Sink head

sink.body();

sink.paragraph();
sink.text( "Paragraph 1, line 1. Paragraph 1, line 2." );
sink.paragraph_();

...

sink.body_();

sink.flush();

sink.close();
