docgo

documentation generator for golang programs

About

docgo is a literate-programming-style documentation generator for Go source code modeled on Jeremy Ashkenas's docco. See here for the result of running docgo on its own source code.

Getting Started

Get the source code from GitHub and do go install, or just run go get github.com/dhconnelly/docgo.

Then run docgo source.go where source.go is a Go source file in the current directory. This creates the file source.html in the current directory, a self-contained HTML page containing your annotated source code.
