JSDoc WMF theme

A theme for JSDoc 4 conforming to the Codex design system. Forked from the default template for JSDoc 3, which uses the Underscore Template library.

Example

See the EventLogging docs for a sample demo. :rocket:

Install

$ npm install --save jsdoc-wmf-theme

Usage

In your jsdoc.json file, add a template option.

"opts": {
  "template": "node_modules/jsdoc-wmf-theme"
}

Options

For information about options and plugins, see the wiki page.

Contributing

Contributions to the theme are welcome! See the JSDoc WMF theme board on Phabricator to view open tasks or open new tasks, bug reports, or requests.

Local development

These steps assume that you have Gerrit set up.

To set up a development environment, you'll need a repository that can generate JSDoc documentation, and this theme itself.

Initial setup

# Create a local folder
mkdir jsdoc-test
# Enter that new local folder
cd jsdoc-test

# Download a repository that uses JSDoc. Either MediaWiki core...
git clone ssh://[email protected]:29418/mediawiki/core
# ...or OOJS (or another repo of your choosing).
git clone ssh://[email protected]:29418/oojs/core

# Get the JSDoc theme
git clone --recurse-submodules ssh://[email protected]:29418/jsdoc/wmf-theme
cd wmf-theme
npm install
cd ..

Point to your local theme

In your local repository that uses JSDoc, edit the JSDoc config file (either jsdoc.js or .jsdoc.json) and change the template to ../wmf-theme.

Build and view your local docs

Build the docs in your test repo and view the generated site in the browser. E.g. for MediaWiki core, run npm run doc in the root of the core repository. Then find the full path to your local index.html file, e.g. file://path-to-local-mediawiki-core/docs/js/index.html, and open it in a browser.

Writing styles

This theme uses Codex design tokens for CSS values. View the Codex docs to see all of the tokens available for use as CSS custom properties.
