JSDocp 1.0.0 Released!

[Will Hoover]

JSDoc publishing

jsdocp is a jsdoc/git publishing agent that generates versioned documentation, CHANGELOGs, auto-deployment to a documentation hosting service (e.g. gh-pages, etc.) and much more!

With jsdocp any number of jsdoc templates can be used for a personalized experience without the added complexities of setting up your own template extension.

• Tutorials
• API Docs

Features:

Page customizations:  

• Use virtually any JSDoc supported template- adds a responsive navigation bar to the doc pages that contains icons/links to the npm module (optional), CHANGELOG (optional), source code (optional) and doc version selection
• Branded documentation using your own logo
• Add your own CSS, JavaScript and meta to the documentation pages without altering the chosen template

Versioned documentation:  

• Each time docs are tagged/deployed to GitHub or any other git supported documentation hosting service, the old docs are archived in a versioned directory
• versions.json generation for real-time version selections in previously deployed docs (no more wiping out old docs, and old docs auto-reference an updated set of versions!)
• Tag filtering option to restrict doc generation for tagged versions that are released for major or minor versions rather than every version that is tagged

CHANGELOG generation:  

• Each time docs are tagged/deployed a CHANGELOG.md as well as a markdown parsed CHANGELOG.html are generated (optional)
• Customizable CHANGELOG header and lines using markdown, git formatting (e.g. %h, etc.) and package/publishing parameter substitutions using Template Literal syntax
• Customizable grep regular expressions for determining which commit messages will appear in the logs (including support for sub-sectioning into Breaking Changes, Features, Fixes and Merges/Pull Requests)

Documentation deployment:  

• Page deployment execution via Node.js cli from the command line or via the provided API
• Easy integration in continuous integration services like travis-ci, etc.

Markdown extensions:  

• Include preprocessed source files into any of your tutorial pages by simply adding...

  ```jsdocp path/to/my/project/file.js
  // contents of file.js will appear below this comment and the language will be set using the file extension!
  ```
