ESDoc Import Path Dedupe Plugin

This is a plugin that converts the import path in documentation. It removes duplicate last parts in import paths, which is useful for components that have a folder and a file with the same name, but are imported using the index.js file anyways. For example, consider this structure:

src/
  components/
    MyComponent/
      index.js
      MyComponent.js

In your codebase, you will do import MyComponent from 'components/MyComponent'. ESDoc will generate docs with import MyComponent from 'components/MyComponent/MyComponent.js'. Using this plugin, the docs will be generated with import MyComponent from 'components/MyComponent' because the plugin detects that the last two segments of the path are equal when applying the js extension.

Install

npm install esdoc-importpath-dedupe-plugin

Config

In the default configuration, only paths to files with the extension js are handled, but you can change that using the extensions option. The extensions option can be a comma-separated string or an array of extension strings.
