Functions

func Synopsis

func Synopsis(s string) string

Synopsis returns a cleaned version of the first sentence in s. That sentence ends after the first period followed by space and not preceded by exactly one uppercase letter. The result string has no \n, \r, or \t characters and uses only single spaces between words.

func ToHTML

func ToHTML(w io.Writer, text string, words map[string]string)

ToHTML converts comment text to formatted HTML. The comment was prepared by DocReader, so it is known not to have leading, trailing blank lines nor to have trailing spaces at the end of lines. The comment markers have already been removed.

Turn each run of multiple \n into </p><p>. Turn each run of indented lines into a <pre> block without indent. Enclose headings with header tags.

URLs in the comment text are converted into links; if the URL also appears in the words map, the link is taken from the map (if the corresponding map value is the empty string, the URL is not converted into a link).

Go identifiers that appear in the words map are italicized; if the corresponding map value is not the empty string, it is considered a URL and the word is converted into a link.

func ToText

func ToText(w io.Writer, text string, indent, preIndent string, width int)

ToText prepares comment text for presentation in textual output. It wraps paragraphs of text to width or fewer Unicode code points and then prefixes each line with the indent. In preformatted sections (such as program text), it prefixes each non-blank line with preIndent.

Types

type Example

type Example struct {
	Name     string
	Doc      string
	Code     ast.Node
	Comments []*ast.CommentGroup
	Output   string
}

func Examples

func Examples(files ...*ast.File) []*Example

type Filter

type Filter func(string) bool

type Func

type Func struct {
	Doc  string
	Name string
	Decl *ast.FuncDecl

	Recv  string
	Orig  string
	Level int
}

Func is the documentation for a func declaration.

type Mode

type Mode int

Mode values control the operation of New.

const (
	// extract documentation for all package-level declarations,
	// not just exported ones
	AllDecls Mode = 1 << iota

	// show all embedded methods, not just the ones of
	// invisible (unexported) anonymous fields
	AllMethods
)

type Package

type Package struct {
	Doc        string
	Name       string
	ImportPath string
	Imports    []string
	Filenames  []string
	Bugs       []string

	Consts []*Value
	Types  []*Type
	Vars   []*Value
	Funcs  []*Func
}

Package is the documentation for an entire package.

func New

func New(pkg *ast.Package, importPath string, mode Mode) *Package

New computes the package documentation for the given package AST. New takes ownership of the AST pkg and may edit or overwrite it.

func (*Package) Filter

func (p *Package) Filter(f Filter)

Filter eliminates documentation for names that don't pass through the filter f. TODO: Recognize "Type.Method" as a name.

type Type

type Type struct {
	Doc  string
	Name string
	Decl *ast.GenDecl

	Consts  []*Value
	Vars    []*Value
	Funcs   []*Func
	Methods []*Func
}

Type is the documentation for a type declaration.

type Value

type Value struct {
	Doc   string
	Names []string
	Decl  *ast.GenDecl
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Value is the documentation for a (possibly grouped) var or const declaration.
