Question

Installation

Install ESDoc and standard-plugin from npm.

cd your-project/
npm install --save-dev esdoc esdoc-standard-plugin
./node_modules/.bin/esdoc -h

Configuration

The minimum configuration is the following JSON. All configurations are here.

.esdoc.json

{
  "source": "./src",
  "destination": "./docs",
  "plugins": [
    {"name": "esdoc-standard-plugin"}
  ]
}

ESDoc automatically finds the configuration file path by the order, if you don't specify -c esdoc.json.

1. .esdoc.json in the current directory
2. .esdoc.js in the current directory
3. esdoc property in package.json

Writing Tags

ESDoc supports some documentation tags(aka. jsdoc tags). All tags are here.

/**
 * this is MyClass.
 */
export default class MyClass {
  /**
   * @param {number} a - this is a value.
   * @param {number} b - this is a value.
   * @return {number} result of the sum value.
   */
  sum(a, b){
    return a + b;
  }
}

And run ESDoc.

./node_modules/.bin/esdoc
open ./docs/index.html
