Generate API doc into folder api from JavaScript source files
in the src and test folders using Jasmine framework
// Gruntfile.js
grunt.initConfig({
xplain: {
options: {
output: 'api',
framework: 'jasmine'
},
src: ['src/*.js', 'test/*.js']
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-xplain');
grunt.registerTask('default', ['xplain']);You can update existing code blocks in Markdown documents by finding unit tests with same names.
// test/add-spec.js
it('adds numbers', function () {
lazyAss(add(2, 3) === 5);
lazyAss(add(2, -3) === -1);
});
// test/api.md
some text, followed by ### <test name> line
### adds numbers
// Gruntfile.js
xplain: {
options: {
framework: 'jasmine'
},
toMarkdown: {
options: {
output: 'test/api.md'
},
src: ['test/*-spec.js']
}
}
The block ### adds number will be updated to
### adds numbers
add(2, 3); // 5
add(2, -3); // -1
