asciidoctor-code-samples

Asciidoctor.js extension that allows to easily add tabbed source code samples in various programming languages for API documentation written in Asciidoctor (this means it also works with Antora). The extension exposes a new block macro that allows usages like the following:

1. Asciidoctor code for HTTP GET API example:

samplecode::sms[httpMethod="GET",urlSuffix="Accounts/#(account_sid)/SMS/Messages.json"]

2. Asciidoctor code for HTTP POST API example:

samplecode::sms[httpMethod="POST",urlSuffix="Accounts/#(account_sid)/SMS/Messages.json",bodyParameters="From=19876543212&To=13216549878&Body=Test SMS from Restcomm&StatusCallback=http://status.callback.url"]

How to extend the extension to handle more languages

Say for example that you want to support ruby additionally. What you need to do is:

• Create ruby-template.txt for GET requests and nodejs-template-post for POST requests in src/resources/lang-templates/
• Add normalization logic for the new language in asciidoctor-code-samples.js:generateSample(), before template is 'compiled' from es6-template-strings
• Add interpolation logic for the new language in asciidoctor-code-samples.js:generateSample() after template is 'compiled' so that any replacements are made before we have additional interpolation
• Add nodejs generated HTML in asciidoctor-code-samples.js:generateSamplesDiv()
• Add test cases to check both GET and POST conversion scenarios in test/test/js
