`@appium/typedoc-plugin-appium`

TypeDoc plugin for Appium & its extensions

Overview

This package leverages TypeDoc to generate command documentation (HTTP endpoints, payload information, etc.) for Appium v2+ drivers and plugins.

Installation

npm install appium@next typedoc @appium/typedoc-plugin-appium --save-dev

typedoc and appium are peer dependencies of this package. Newer versions of npm will install these automatically (if possible).

Usage

TypeDoc is configured via a typedoc.json or typedoc.js file (read the docs for more information).

An Appium extension author wishing to generate documentation for their extension will need to create a typedoc.json. At minimum, it should contain:

TODO: The plugin should be able to detect the entry points automatically, so this should not be necessary

{
  "entryPointStrategy": "packages",
  "entryPoints": [
    "./node_modules/appium",
    "./node_modules/@appium/base-driver",
    "./node_modules/@appium/types",
    "."
  ],
  "name": "<name of extension>",
  "out": "<path to output directory>"
}

Once this file is created, you can run typedoc to generate the documentation, and it will be output into the out directory as configured above.
