Natspec Smells

Just like code, documentation can smell too. Natspec Smells aims to help automatically identify missing or incomplete natspec.

What can it do?

• Verifies natspec for: constructors, variables, functions, ~~structs~~, errors, events, modifiers
• Finds misspelled or missing @param or @return's.
• Lets you enforce the need for @inheritdoc in public/external functions.
• Can integrate on your daily workflow, or just as a final check.

No setup usage

Want to quickly check if your natspec smells?

Just run:

npx @defi-wonderland/natspec-smells --include src --exclude "src/**/*.sol" "(test|scripts)/**/*.sol"

[!NOTE] Remember to put quotes around the glob strings when using the include and exclude options.

Recommended setup

1. Install the package:

   yarn add --dev @defi-wonderland/natspec-smells

2. Create a config file named natspec-smells.config.js, you can use the following as an example:

   /**
    * List of supported options: https://github.com/defi-wonderland/natspec-smells?tab=readme-ov-file#options
    */
   
   /** @type {import('@defi-wonderland/natspec-smells').Config} */
   module.exports = {
     include: 'src/**/*.sol',
     exclude: '(test|scripts)/**/*.sol',
   };

3. Run

   yarn natspec-smells

Verify your natspec in CI

Soon to come.
