Patching

Generating everything does not work if the models do not support some use cases. Therefore the plugin provides a simple patch mechanism to work around the model deficiencies.

If the generated files do not meet your requirements, patching allows you to replace files or part of files.

The patched files show which content has been added or replaced. If the whole file is replaced, the replaced file will be copied to a backup folder for further reference.

Using patched files is more work since the generated content must be monitored for changes that need to be applied to the patch file.

Currently only the following generated files can be patched:

Generated text resources
whole files (may also be used to add new files)
replace generated content in
1. JavaScript file
2. atlassian-plugin.xml
