grunt-styledoc v0.0.3

grunt-styledoc

Grunt wrapper for styledoc: parser and showcase generator for JavaDoc-like comments in CSS, LESS, SASS etc.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-styledoc --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-styledoc');

The "styledoc" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named styledoc to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  styledoc: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    },
  },
});

Options

options.templates_dir

Type: String Default value: "<module_dir>/templates/"

Path to templates directory, relative to current location.

options.template

Type: String Default value: "default"

Name of showcase page template.

options.language

Type: String Default value: "en"

Language to apply when creating page (should exist in template's languages directory)

options.doctype

Type: String Default value: "html5"

Live preview target doctype (should exist in template's preview directory).

options.page_title

Type: String Default value: ""

Main title of document.

options.css_url_http

Type: Sumber Default value: undefined

HTTP(S) path to CSS file to use in live preview (detected automatically by default).

options.iframe_delay

Type: Number Default value: 2000

Delay (ms) before refreshing iframe height. This delay is needed to render preview item iframe page, measure its height, and then apply this height to <iframe> element itself. Not needed if PhantomJS is used.

options.use_phantomjs

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Use PhantomJS to pre-measure and pre-set preview iframes height values (so iframe delay is not needed). Requires PhantomJS to be installed in system.

options.phantomjs_viewport

Type: Object Default value: { width: 1280, height: 800 }

Viewport size for PhantomJS instances.

options.silent_mode

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Disable console messages.

options.preview_padding

Type: Number | Number[] Default value: undefined

Padding value(s) for preview container. Useful if elements have box-shadow, outline or similar styles that don't affect the container offset size. Value can be a number (4 => padding: 4px) or array of numbers ([ 4, 3, 8 ] => padding: 4px 3px 8px).

options.background_color

Type: String Default value: undefined

Background color CSS value for both main showcase page and iframe preview pages (for seemless iframes). Use this option if your target body color differs from value proposed by template (#fff for default template, #000 for dark template, etc.). Value should be a string containing any CSS-valid color value (e.g. "#f1f1f1", "darkgray", or even "rgb(17, 17, 36)").

Usage examples

Basic usage

In this example, only page_title option is provided. Although this option isn't required, showcase page just look poor without a title :)

grunt.initConfig({
    styledoc: {
        options: {
            page_title: "My styles presentation"
        },
        files: [
           { src: "path/to/your.css", dest: "path/to/output/directory/" }
        ],
    },
});

Extented configuration

In this example, all available options are added.

grunt.initConfig({
    styledoc: {
        options: {
            page_title: "My styles presentation",
            templates_dir: "my/custom/templates/dir/",
            template: "my_custom_template",
            language: "ru",
            doctype: "xhtml10_transitional",
            iframe_delay: 3000, // actually ignored if PhantomJS is enabled and installed
            use_phantomjs: true,
            phantomjs_viewport: { width: 640, height: 480 },
            silent_mode: true,
            preview_padding: [ 15 10 20 12 ],
            background_color: "#ffc"
        },
        files: [
           { src: "path/to/your.css", dest: "path/to/output/directory/" }
        ],
    },
});
