# vuepress-jsdoc
[](https://sonarcloud.io/dashboard?id=ph1p_vuepress-jsdoc)
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/vuepress-jsdoc)
[](https://vuepress-jsdoc-example.vercel.app)This npm package serves as a command line script designed to analyze your JavaScript, Vue, or TypeScript source code. Leveraging [jsdoc-to-markdown](https://github.com/jsdoc2md/jsdoc-to-markdown) and [vue-docgen-cli](https://github.com/vue-styleguidist/vue-styleguidist/tree/dev/packages/vue-docgen-cli), it dynamically generates markdown files tailored for VuePress.

## Vuepress support
This npm package is compatible with VuePress 2; however, it requires a version lower than `5.0.0` for proper functionality with VuePress 1.
## How to
```bash
yarn global add vuepress-jsdoc
npm i vuepress-jsdoc -g
```**Example:**
```bash
# search code in src and move it to code (./documentation/code) in your vuepress folder (./documentation)
vuepress-jsdoc --source ./src --dist ./documentation --folder code --title API --exclude="**/*/*.test.js"
```You can also use `npx vuepress-jsdoc`, if you want.
#### Watch-Mode `alpha`
If you do not want to run`vuepress-jsdoc` again and again and again.
You can simply pass `--watch` or `-w`.### Command-Options
Use these options after `vuepress-jsdoc`.

Inside your generated folder, you can find a `config.js`.
This file includes a complete filetree and an vuepress sidebar tree.## How to configure vuepress
[Vuepress](https://vuepress.vuejs.org/) is a static site generator by Evan You.
You can add all generated documentation files to your existing vuepress project or create a new one.```bash
# First install vuepress
yarn global add vuepress# Run the CLI
vuepress-jsdoc# Run vuepress dev server
vuepress dev ./documentation# Run vuepress build, if you want to ship it
vuepress build ./documentation
```**Access it via:** [http://localhost:8080/code/](http://localhost:8080/code/)
Now you need the sidebar.
Create a `.vuepress` folder inside the `documentation` folder and add the following `config.js`.**config.js:**
```javascript
// auto generated sidebar
const { sidebarTree } = require('../code/config');module.exports = {
dest: 'dist',
locales: {
'/': {
title: 'vuepress-jsdoc',
description: 'Generate jsdoc markdown files for vuepress'
}
},
themeConfig: {
editLinks: true,
sidebarDepth: 4,
docsDir: 'code',
locales: {
'/': {
nav: [
{
text: 'Home',
link: '/'
}
],
// Add the generated sidebar
sidebar: Object.assign({}, sidebarTree('Mainpage title'))
}
}
}
};
```## Custom readme
To include a custom path for your readme, simply utilize the `--readme ./path/to/file.md` parameter. If you relocate a `README.md` file into your source folder, the system will automatically resolve it.
For setting the title, provide it as an argument to the `sidebarTree('Mainpage title')` function within your `./.vuepress/config.js` file.
## @vuepress comment block
Enhance your page customization by incorporating custom metadata through the `@vuepress` block:
```javascript
/*
* @vuepress
* ---
* title: Your custom title
* headline: You custom headline
* ---
*/
```Use `headline` to add a custom `h1` title.

## Typescript
To integrate TypeScript support, install the following dev-dependencies with the following command:
```bash
npm install -D typescript jsdoc-babel @babel/cli @babel/core @babel/preset-env @babel/preset-typescript jsdoc-to-markdown
```After installation, include a `jsdoc.json` file in your project with specific settings, and reference it using the `-c` parameter. For a comprehensive example with all the necessary configurations, refer to the `./example` folder. The example also demonstrates the usage of Babel plugins.
## Example
The `./example` folder includes a full working vuepress-jsdoc example.
```bash
# Install dependencies
npm install# Run the CLI
vuepress-jsdoc# Generate docs
npm run docs# Run dev server
npm run dev# Generate dist folder
npm run build
