JSDoc for VueJS

A JSDoc plugin for listing props, data, computed data, and methods from *.vue files.

Requirements

• Node 10+
• Vue 2

Installation

$ npm install --save-dev jsdoc jsdoc-vuejs

You also need to install vue-template-compiler that match your Vue version:

# if you use Vue 2.5.21
$ npm install --save-dev [email protected]

Usage

Your should update your JSDoc configuration to enable JSDoc-VueJS:

{
  "plugins": [
    "node_modules/jsdoc-vuejs"
  ],
  "source": {
    "includePattern": "\\.(vue|js)$"
  }
}

Update your .vue files with one of the following tags:

• @vue-prop
• @vue-data
• @vue-computed
• @vue-event

All of those tags work the same way than @param tag.

<template>
  <div>Hello world!</div>
</template>

<script>
  /**
   * @vue-prop {Number} initialCounter - Initial counter's value
   * @vue-prop {Number} [step=1] - Step
   * @vue-data {Number} counter - Current counter's value
   * @vue-computed {String} message
   * @vue-event {Number} increment - Emit counter's value after increment
   * @vue-event {Number} decrement - Emit counter's value after decrement
   */
  export default {
    props: {
      initialCounter: {
        type: Number,
        required: true,
      },
      step: {
        type: Number,
        default: 1,
      },
    },
    data () {
      return {
        counter: 0,
      }
    },
    computed: {
      message() {
        return `Current value is ${this.counter}`;
      }
    },
    methods: {
      increment() {
        this.counter += 1;
        this.$emit('increment', this.counter);
      },
      decrement() {
        this.counter -= 1;
        this.$emit('decrement', this.counter);
      }
    }
  }
</script>

Supported templates

The rendering engine has been rewritten in v2, it can supports every JSDoc templates that exists.

Actually, it supports 4 templates:

• Default
• Docstrap
• Minami
• Tui

If you use a template that is not supported, it will use the default one as a fallback.

Feel free to open an issue/pull request if your template is not supported!
