react-docgen-docs v1.0.3

react-docgen-docs

CLI tool that extracts information from React Components using react-docgen, transforms that information into Markdown and adds it to your README file.

Install

$ npm install --save-dev react-docgen-docs

Usage

$ rdd <componentsDir> [options]
// `rdd` is a shortcut for `react-docgen-docs`

1. Add the delimiter in your README file to indicate where you want to insert the docs

   <!-- react-component-api -->

2. Then add a new task in your package.json to generate the docs. Note that you must specify the path for the readme and for the components to be documented.

   "scripts": {
       "docs": "rdd src/ --readmeFile docs/README.md"
   }

Configuration

--readmeFile

Default: './README.md'

The path to the readme file where generated documentation is appended.

--delimiter

Default: 'react-component-api'

Use a custom delimiter. Used to let the tool know where to place the docs in your readme.

This generates <!-- react-component-api --> and <!-- react-component-api:end --> delimiters.

--ext

Default: ['.js', '.jsx']

File extensions to consider. Used by react-docgen.

--ignoreDir

Default: ['node_modules', 'bower_components']

Folders to ignore. Used by react-docgen.
