Error on Elixir 1.15.2/Erlang 26.0.2 Umbrella about ex_doc HOT 6 CLOSED

Yeah, perhaps we could implement this feature, but it certainly isn't one we support right now. :)

I has having another problem with dialyzer jeremyjh/dialyxir#508 , and their solution was to add dialyzer to each child app. I tried that here and now I don't get the same error, but I'm getting an error for one of my apps ** (Mix) expected :name or :app to be found in the project definition in mix.exs but there is a app key in the project of that app.

Did you add ExDoc to child projects or to the root? Are you invoking it from the root or the child projects? How have you specified it?

Sorry, I originally had {:ex_doc, "~> 0.29", only: :dev, runtime: false},. I tried changing it to {:ex_doc, "~> 0.30", only: :dev, runtime: false}, when I saw there was a newer version. Running mix docs from the umbrella root gave me the original error I posted in the first message. Bumping the version still resulted in the same error.

Then I thought I'd add ex doc to each child, so I added {:ex_doc, "~> 0.30", only: :dev, runtime: false}, to every child application and then tried running mix docs from the root again, and that's when I got the error about the :name or :app from the second post above.

I cannot reproduce the error. mix docs at the root always tells me missing ":name or :app", which is expected. You need to add it to every child and, if you want to run on all of them, you can do mix cmd mix docs. :)

Ah, I incorrectly assumed that running mix docs at the root would generate an aggregated doc at the root level. I was hoping to have all the documentation for the entire umbrella project together under one index.html entry point.
