componentDoc

Node API for execute the generation for a documentation of the source code of a Single Page Application. YAML-files - concrete component.yaml-files - are the input and HTML and if wanted PDF is the output.

For the PDF Creation the node module node-prince is used.

Motivation

If you use the msg-js-spa-skeleton as the base of your Single Page Application one component exists out of the following fragments:

• component.yaml documentation of the component itself
• de.json language property file - one for each language
• xxx-ctrl.js source code for the controller
• xxx-model.js source code for the model
• xxx-view.js source code for the view
• xxx.less styles for the component
• xxx.html markup for the component

ComponentDoc helps you to bundle the component.yaml-files of all components and preparing them in a nice and readable way.
