[FIXED] Linking JS stdlib to generated kdoc

Issue

Developing a Kotlin/JS project, we are generating KDoc using Dokka Maven plugin. However standard JS library classes are presented as ERROR CLASS in the generated doc.

Example: having function like this:

fun HTMLElement.component(label: String, init: () -> Unit)

gives documentation:

fun <ERROR CLASS>.component(label: String, init: () -> Unit)

We are behind proxy and the Dokka plugin is configured to work offline (<offlineMode>true</offlineMode>). How can we link the stdlib documentation to the generated one?

EDIT: Seems it is related to Dokka Maven plugin, with Gradle the documentation is generated all right.

Solution

I've got my answer elsewhere so I'll just put it here to close it.

Two things are needed: to add <platform>js</platform> to the plugin configuration, and to run KDoc generation after the package phase (pre-integration-test phase is recommended).

Sample configuration:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.jetbrains.dokka</groupId>
    <artifactId>dokka-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>...</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>pre-integration-test</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>dokka</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
        <offlineMode>true</offlineMode>
        <platform>js</platform>
        <apiVersion>...</apiVersion>
    </configuration>
</plugin>
