### Configuring a dokka task
Dokka 1.4.x will create dedicated tasks for each format. 
You can expect the following formats being registered and configured by default: 
- `dokkaHtml`
- `dokkaJavadoc`
- `dokkaGfm`
- `dokkaJekyll`

Therefore, you need to either select specifically which task you want to configure or configure all with Type `DokkaTask`

```kotlin
/* 0.10.x */ 
tasks.dokka.configure { /*...*/ }

/* 1.4.x */
// configure all formats
tasks.withType<DokkaTask>().configureEach { /*...*/ }

// configure only html format e.g.
tasks.dokkaHtml.configure { /*...*/ }
```

#### properties
```kotlin
/* 0.10.x */    outputFormat = "html"
/* 1.4.x        No equivalent. 
                Formats are only configured by plugins. 
                See `dokkaHtml`, `dokkaJavadoc`,... tasks */

/* 0.10.x */    outputDirectory = "$buildDir/javadoc"
/* 1.4.x */     outputDirectory.set(buildDir.resolve("javadoc"))
    
    
/* 0.10.x */    subProjects = ["subproject1", "subproject2"]
/* 1.4.x        No equivalent.
                    See `DokkaCollectorTask` and `DokkaMultiModuleTask` */

        
/* 0.10.x */    disableAutoconfiguration = false 
/* 1.4.x        No equivalent.
                Source sets are synced with Kotlin Model by default. 
                All settings can still be overridden */

/* 0.10.x */    cacheRoot = "default" 
/* 1.4.x */     cacheRoot.set(file("default"))

```

### Configure a source set
```kotlin
/* 0.10.x */
tasks.dokka.configure { 
    configuration {
        // ...
    }
}

/* 1.4.x */
tasks.dokkaHtml.configure { 
    dokkaSourceSets {
        named("main") { /* configure main source set */ }
        configureEach {  /* configure all source sets */ }
        register("custom") { /* register custom source set */ }
    }
}
```
