This package gives you the ability transform with ease a coffeekraken-docblock-parser resulting JSON into a beautiful markdown file.
npm install git+ssh://git@github.com:Coffeekraken/docblock-json-to-markdown.git#release/0.0.1 --save-dev
First, require the package in your javascript node file like so:
const docblockJSONToMarkdown = require('coffeekraken-docblock-json-to-markdown');
// use the package like so:
const markdown = docblockJSONToMarkdown(config).jsonToMarkdown(myCoolJSON);
Here's the configuration object that you can hook as needed:
{
language : 'js', // Specify the language that is being processed like "js, scss, etc..."
tags : {
// all the tags render functions
author : (author) => {
return `- Author : ${author.name}`
},
// etc...
},
templates : {
// all the templates render functions
default : __defaultTemplate,
// etc...
},
types : {
// all the types URL for each languages like so:
js : {
HTMLElement : 'https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/API/HTMLElement',
// etc...
},
scss : {
// ...
}
}
}
In the config object, you will find the "types" property. This property represent an object by language that simply map a type with a URL where you can find more info on this type.
Here's the available out of the box types:

You can through the config add or override how a specific tag will be printed out in your final markdown file. Here's how:
const docblockJSONToMarkdown = require('coffeekraken-docblock-json-to-markdown');
// make a custom config
const config = {
tags : {
example : (exampleData) => {
// make your own display
return `
### Example
\`\`\`${exampleData.language}
${exampleData.body}
\`\`\`
`;
},
myCoolTag : (tagData) => {
// return something for your new cool tag
}
}
};
// use the package like so:
const markdown = docblockJSONToMarkdown(config).jsonToMarkdown(myCoolJSON);
Templates are the backbone of the outputed markdown file. It describe which docblock will be displayed in which order, group, etc... Here's the default template:
export default function defaultTemplate(data) {
return [
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block, index) => {
return index === 0 && block.name && ! block.private && ! block.protected;
}), {
title : '@[0].name',
titleLevelAdd : 1,
doNotRender : ['name']
}),
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block) => {
return block.constructor === true;
}), {
doNotRender : ['name'],
title : 'Constructor'
}),
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block) => {
return ! block.event && block.styleguide !== undefined;
}), {
title : 'Examples',
description : "Here's some usage examples."
}),
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block) => {
return ! block.event && (block.prop !== undefined || block.attribute !== undefined);
}), {
title : 'Attributes',
description : "Here's the list of available attribute to set on the element."
}),
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block) => {
return ! block.event && block.setting !== undefined;
}), {
title : 'Settings',
description : "Here's the list of available settings."
}),
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block) => {
return ! block.event && ! block.return && block.types !== undefined && ! block.private && ! block.protected;
}), {
title : 'Properties'
}),
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block) => {
return ! block.event && ! block.types && ! block.private && ! block.protected;
}), {
title : 'Methods'
}),
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block) => {
return block.event && ! block.private && ! block.protected;
}), {
title : 'Events'
})
].join("\n");
}
You can register or override any template like so:
const docblockJSONToMarkdown = require('coffeekraken-docblock-json-to-markdown');
// make a custom config
const config = {
templates : {
jsx : (data) => {
return [
this.renderBlocks(data.filter((block) => {
return block.constructor === true;
}), {
doNotRender : ['name'],
title : 'Constructor'
})
].join("\n");
}
}
};
// use the package like so:
const markdown = docblockJSONToMarkdown(config).jsonToMarkdown(myCoolJSON);
The template index has to be the language extension of the file processed.
