Installation

$ npm install -g @kunai-consulting/code-notate
$ cn COMMAND
running command...
$ cn (--version)
@kunai-consulting/code-notate/0.0.2 darwin-arm64 node-v22.14.0
$ cn --help [COMMAND]
USAGE
  $ cn COMMAND
...

Configuration

Create a code-notate.config.js file in your project root where your package.json is located.:

/** @type {import('@kunai-consulting/code-notate').CodeNotateConfig} */
export default {
  // The LLM model to use
  aiModel: "claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022",
  // The LLM provider. Currently only Anthropic is supported
  aiProvider: "anthropic",
  // The folder where API information and documentation is stored
  documentationFolder: "./docs",
  // Optional. The command to run to format the generated documentation
  formatCommand: "pnpm format",
  // Optional. The directory where the format command can be run
  formatDirectory: ".",
  // Optional. The name of the framework the code is written in
  framework: "Qwik",
  // The folder where the code resides, to be analyzed and documented. Can be overridden with a command-line argument.
  sourceFolder: "./src/components/grid",
};

If the config file is located elsewhere, you can use the -c flag to specify the path, for example: cn gen-api -c ./config

Anthropic API key

If you are using the Anthropic API, you need to set the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable.

To accomplish this, you can add a .env file to your project root, or you can set the environment variable globally in your Node.js environment.

Example .env file:

ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-1234567890123456789012345678901234567890
