# Welcome to DocBox!
DocBox is a JavaDoc-style documentation generator for your CFML codebase based on Mark Mandel's ColdDoc project.
[Docs][1] | [Github][2] | [Ortus Community][3]

## FEATURES
* Read [JavaDoc comment blocks](https://www.oracle.com/technical-resources/articles/java/javadoc-tool.html#format)
* Document your class API - components, methods, and properties
* Generate HTML documentation
* Generate machine-readable JSON
* generate XMI file which can be converted to a UML diagram
## SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
- Lucee 5+
- Adobe ColdFusion 2016+
## Usage
Use the DocBox library to generate API docs from your CFC files. Install Docbox with CommandBox like so:
```bash
box install docbox
```
### Standalone Application
If you want to use DocBox for document generation in your CFML application, then just drop it into any location and create a `/docbox` mapping to it. You will then instantiate the `DocBox` generator class with a `strategy` and `properties` for the strategy.
```js
// use custom strategy found at class.path
docbox = new docbox.DocBox( strategy="class.path", properties={} );
// create with HTML strategy
docbox = new docbox.DocBox(
strategy = "HTML",
properties = {
projectTitle="My Docs",
outputDir="#expandPath( '/docs' )#"
}
);
```
#### Generating Docs
To generate the documentation you will then execute the `generate()` method on the DocBox object and pass in the following parameters:
#### Generate Params
* `source` : A path to the source location or an array of structs of locations that must have a `dir` and `mapping` key on it.
* `mapping` : The base mapping for the folder source. Used only if `source` is a path
* `excludes` : A regular expression that will be evaluated against all CFCs sent for documentation. If the regex matches the CFC name and path then the CFC will be excluded from documentation.
```js
docbox.generate( source="/my/path", mapping="coldbox" );
docbox.generate(
source = "#expandPath( '/docbox' )#",
mapping = "coldbox",
excludes = "tests"
);
```
Once the generation finalizes, you will see your beautiful docs!
#### Available Strategies & Properties
* `HTML` - **default**
* `projectTitle` : The HTML title
* `outputDir` : The output directory
* `JSON`
* `projectTitle` : The HTML title
* `outputDir` : The output directory
* `XMI`
* `outputFile` : The output file
### CommandBox Command
There is a related project you can install which wraps up the DocBox library in a Custom CLI command so you can generate API docs from the command line.
```bash
box install commandbox-docbox
```
