JSON Output

Generate JSON output for easy documentation imports into other documentation tools and platforms.

Instantiate DocBox

Begin by creating an instance of DocBox:
docbox = new DocBox();

Properties

The following are the properties for this strategy:
  • projectTitle : Used in the top-level overview-summary.json file
  • outputDir : The output directory absolute path
Just pass them in the docbox.addStrategy() call:
docbox = new DocBox();
docbox.addStrategy( "JSON",
{
projectTitle = "DocBox API",
outputDir = expandPath( "/resources/tmp" )
} );

Generate Documentation

Now that you have an instance of DocBox configured with your strategy and its properties, just execute the generate() method with its appropriate arguments:
docbox.generate(
source = "#expandPath( '/docbox' )",
mapping = "coldbox",
excludes = "tests"
);
