Simply install from rubygems.org. This will install the gem, the raindoc
executable and the template files for the gem.
gem install rain-doc
Or, include the gem in your Gemfile if you're using Bundler.
gem 'rain-doc'
Use the CLI provided (via Thor) to run the following command:
raindoc generate file/paths/*
Where file/paths are a list of .md, .markdown, .txt, .mdown or .rb files.
Rain has several command line options that can be used to change the output.
Option | Description |
---|---|
--s | Parses methods (def, get, put, post, delete) and classes and outputs them into the HTML output with their comments/docs |
--lp | Logs each file line parse's output so you can see where the parser may be going wrong if the desired effect is not achieved |
For some examples of the current rain output, see the example below (which has a GET, PUT, POST and DELETE route).
