grunt-apidox v3.1.1

grunt-apidox    

Grunt plugin to generate Node.js API markdown using apidox.

Example:

grunt.initConfig(
{
    apidox: {
        input: 'index.js',
        output: 'README.md'
    }
});

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-apidox');
grunt.registerTask('docs', 'apidox');

Installation

npm install grunt-apidox

Configuration

Use the apidox property in your Grunt config. You can supply the following options:

• input (required, string): Source filename to generate documentation for. You can use Grunt globbing patterns to specify more than one file.

• output (optional, string): Name of the file to write the markdown into. Defaults to the same as the input filename but with the extension changed to .md.

• outdir (optional, string): Subdirectory to write output file into.

• inputTitle (optional, string |false): By default, apidox includes a line in the markdown saying it was generated from the input file. Set inputTitle to false to prevent this, or set it to a string to change the text.

• fullSourceDescription (optional, boolean): By default, apidox includes only the first paragraph of the first comment in the output. Set fullSourceDescription to true to include all of the first comment in the output.

• sections (optional, object): Use this to divide the table of contents into sections. Each key in sections is the name of the first function in a section. The value is the markdown to insert before the link to the function in the table of contents.

  Use a key with the empty string to insert markdown after the table of contents.

• extraHeadingLevels (optional, integer): By default, apidox generates level 1 headings for each API entry. Set extraHeadingLevels if you want to change this. For example, to generate level 3 headings, set extraHeadingLevels to 2.

More Examples

Write to a subdirectory:

apidox: {
    input: 'index.js',
    output: 'README.md',
    outdir: 'docs'
}

Set the text of the source link in the markdown to bar:

apidox: {
    input: 'index.js',
    output: 'README.md',
    inputTitle: 'bar'
}

Don't show source link:

apidox: {
    input: 'index.js',
    output: 'README.md',
    inputTitle: false
}

Write to index.md:

apidox: 'index.js'

Use a wildcard to process multiple source files and generate a separate markdown file for each one:

apidox: {
    input: '*.js',
    outdir: 'docs'
}

Use a wildcard to process multiple source files and generate a single markdown file:

apidox: {
    input: '*.js',
    output: 'README.md'
}

Split the table of contents into two sections, foo and bar:

apidox: {
    input: 'index.js',
    sections: {
        someFunction: '##foo',
        someOtherFunction: '##bar'
    }
}
