Support for Dokka in the JavaDoc integration

Request details

Currently, if a .jar file ends with -javadoc.jar, it can be viewed through the Reposilite web UI. Trying to do this with a -dokka.jar, Kotlin's documentation engine doesn't seem to work. Is it possible for the JavaDoc detection to include files ending with -dokka.jar? Or would more support need to be added to support Dokka due to a different file structure?

I honestly don't know, as I never used Dokka 😅 But yeah, it makes sense to support it at some point.

I wonder if it would work if we just changed the artifact ID to end with -javadoc.jar

Not quite. Reposilite's access control breaks some stuff and things don't render properly.

Oh cool! Thank you so much for the PR! I'd love Dokka support so much, our team could really use it

Dokka by default generates an HTML documentation, so it's only a static-site serving task.
However it can also output in javadoc format and Markdown. The later requires a markdown engine in the frontend, if we wish to support all formats.

See HTML format here (sorry for redaction, don't wanna plug other projects):
