deno_doc

A Rust crate to generate documentation for JavaScript and TypeScript modules.

This crate powers deno doc, but is not Deno specific and can be used to write documentation generators for other targets like Node or the browser as well.

Usage from Deno CLI or Deploy

See js/README.md.

Rust Example

examples/ddoc/main.rs provides a minimal standalone binary demonstrating how deno_doc can be used as a crate.

$ cargo run --example ddoc ../deno_std/http/mod.ts

Developing

# build all targets
$ cargo build --all-targets

# test it
$ cargo test

# build js api
$ deno task build

# test it
$ deno task test

We use insta testing tool for taking snapshots of the html output. If you change the rednering of html output, or change the fixture files for html testing, you need to update snapshot using cargo-insta command.

# update snapshots
cargo insta test

# review snapshots
cargo insta review

See the insta docs for more details.
