kapitan-docs is a tool to automatically generate documentation for a Kapitan project.
The markdown generation is managed by go text/template package. kapitan-docs parses metadata from a Kapitan project and generates a number of sub-templates that can be referenced in a template file (by default README.md.gotmpl
). If no template file is provided, the tool has a default internal template that will generate a reasonably formatted README.
Currently only class documentation is supported !
The most useful aspect of this tool is the auto-detection of field descriptions from comments, e.g for a class ./foo/bar.yaml
:
# -- Foo is a test class, used to display an example. # # Class comment support **markdown** in comments. classes: - bar.baz parameters: foo: # -- A `number` number: 2 # -- A `string` string: "foo" # -- An `object` object: bar: baz # -- A `list` list: - myvalue1 - myvalue2 - myvalue3
Resulting in a resulting README section like so:
Foo is a test class, used to display an example.
Class comment support markdown in comments.
