HELP

add a nifty help function to your class to help users with its methods

const Thing = require("thing")
const thing = new Thing()

thing.help() // add a function that outputs method help to the console

usage

backend code

in your class or constructor function, add comments prefixed with //! over each method you want to show in the help log.

then, add a method called .help() or something, and assign it to the help function

const help = require("@ryanforever/help")

function MyClass() {
    
	//! returns hello world
	this.foo = async function() {
		...
	}
	
	//! summons ghost
	this.bar = async function() {
		...
	}
	
	//! important setting
	this.baz = 50
    
	this.help = help
}

client code

when a user instantiates your class and calls your help method, info about the methods will be logged to the console.

const MyClass = require("my-class")
const myClass = new MyClas()

myClass.help()

this will output the following:
