@cutls/apidoc-plugin-ts v1.0.11

apidoc-plugin-ts

A plugin for apidoc that injects @apiSuccess @apiParam params from TypeScript interfaces. Supports extended and nested interfaces.

Getting started

npm install --save-dev apidoc @cutls/apidoc-plugin-ts

yarn add -D apidoc @cutls/apidoc-plugin-ts

A custom api-doc param @apiInterface is exposed:

@apiInterface (optional path to definitions file) {INTERFACE_NAME} // @apiSuccess
@apiInterface (optional path to definitions file) ++{INTERFACE_NAME} // @apiParam

Example

Given the following interface:

// filename: ./employers.ts

export interface Employer {
  /**
   * Employer job title
   */
  jobTitle: string
  /**
   * Employer personal details
   */
  personalDetails: {
    name: string // Their name
    age: number
  }

  note?: string // Note about them(optional)
}

export interface RequestEmployer {
  id: string // ID of the employer
}

and the following custom param:

@apiInterface (./employers.ts) {Employer}
@apiInterface (./employers.ts) ++{RequestEmployer}

under the hood this would transpile to:

@apiSuccess {String} jobTitle Job title
@apiSuccess {Object} personalDetails Empoyer personal details
@apiSuccess {String} personalDetails.name Their name
@apiSuccess {Number} personalDetails.age
@apiSuccess {String} [note] Note about them(optional)

@apiParam {String} id ID of the employer

Note if the Employer interface is defined in the same file then you can drop the path:

@apiInterface {Employer}

Why @cutls/apidoc-plugin-ts ?

Your nice complex request also can be defined with nice TypeScript interface!
