Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Moxygen

Moxygen is a Doxygen XML to Markdown converter for C++ developers who want a minimal and beautiful solution for documentating their projects.

Moxygen is currently used in conjunction with GitBook to generate the API documentation for LibSourcey.

Features

  • Multi page output: Output single or multiple files
  • Internal linking: Anchors in comments and function definitions are supported
  • Markdown comments: Markdown in Doxygen comments are rendered
  • Doxygen groups: Doxygen grouping is supported for more organised documentation
  • Custom templates: Modify the core Markdown templates to add your own flavour
  • Optional index: Optionally render a top level index

Usage

  1. Add GENERATE_XML=YES to your Doxyfile first.
  2. Run doxygen to generate the XML documentation.
  3. Install moxygen like so: npm install moxygen -g.
  4. Run moxygen providing the folder location of the XML documentation as the first argument ie. {OUTPUT_DIRECTORY}/xml.
Usage: moxygen [options] <doxygen directory>

Options:

  -h, --help             output usage information
  -V, --version          output the version number
  -o, --output <file>    output file (must contain %s when using groups)
  -g, --groups           output doxygen groups into separate files
  -c, --classes          output doxygen classes into separate files
  -n, --noindex          disable generation of the index (no effect with `groups` option
  -a, --anchors          add anchors to internal links
  -l, --language <lang>  programming language
  -t, --templates <dir>  custom templates directory
  -q, --quiet            quiet mode

Multi-page Output

Moxygen supports the doxygen groups syntax for generating multi page documentation. Every \defgroup in your source code will be parsed and output into a separate markdown file, with internal reference updated accordingly.

Example:

moxygen --anchors --groups --output api-%s.md /path/to/doxygen/xml

Example

To get a feel for how Moxygen works you can play with the example which is located in the example folder. The example contains:

  • Documented C++ example code
  • A Doxyfile file (for doxygen 1.8.13)
  • Pre-generated XML output in example/xml
  • Pre-generated output Markdown files in example/doc

The rebuild the example XML you can run doxygen from within the example folder.

Now you can build the example documentation with the following command from within the example folder:

moxygen --anchors --groups --output=example/doc/api-%s.md example/xml
