这里有一个指南，向您展示如何使用“mvn site:deploy”来自动部署生成的文档站点到服务器，这里通过WebDAV机制说明。

P.S 在这篇文章中，我们使用的是Apache服务器2.x的WebDAV功能。

1. 启用 WebDAV

请参见本指南，了解 如何启用WebDAV访问Apache 2.x服务器。

2. 配置在何处部署

在 pom.xml 中，配置在 “distributionManagement” 标签部署你的网站。

<distributionManagement>
    <site>
      <id>vcclassserver</id>
      <url>dav:http://127.0.0.1/sites/</url>
    </site>
</distributionManagement>

告诉Maven来使用“wagon-webdav-jackrabbit”扩展部署。

<build>
	<extensions>
		<extension>
			<groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
			<artifactId>wagon-webdav-jackrabbit</artifactId>
			<version>1.0-beta-7</version>
		</extension>
	</extensions>
</build>

<extension>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
            <artifactId>wagon-webdav</artifactId>
            <version>1.0-beta-2</version>
</extension>

 pom.xml 整个文件内容：

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" 
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 
  http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
  <groupId>com.vcclass.core</groupId>
  <artifactId>vcclass-core</artifactId>
  <packaging>jar</packaging>
  <version>1</version>
  <name>vcclass-core</name>
  <url>http://maven.apache.org</url>
  <build>
	<extensions>
		<extension>
			<groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
			<artifactId>wagon-webdav-jackrabbit</artifactId>
			<version>1.0-beta-7</version>
		</extension>
	</extensions>
  </build>
  <distributionManagement>
    <site>
      <id>vcclassserver</id>
      <url>dav:http://127.0.0.1/sites/</url>
    </site>
  </distributionManagement>
</project>

3. 配置WebDAV身份验证

通常情况下，WebDAV是需要认证的访问。所以需要把相关的认证细节(用户名和密码)%MAVEN_PATH%/conf/settings.xml.

File : settings.xml

<servers>
	<server>
		<id>vcclassserver</id>
		<username>admin</username>
		<password>123456</password>
	</server>
</servers>

4. mvn site:deploy

“mvn site:deploy” 命令执行：

C:\worksp\vcclass-core>mvn site:deploy

所有站点文件夹和文件，在项目文件夹- “target/site”会被自动部署到服务器。
