Ember JSON API Docs Build Status

This tool gets the code comments from ember.js and ember-data libraries, turns them into JSON files, and then turns those JSON files into a JSON:API format.

The files this tool creates are used to power api.emberjs.com.

ℹ️ NOTE: If you are looking for the front end app behind https://api.emberjs.com/, visit ember-api-docs instead.

Prerequisites

Clone all of the following repositories into the same directory so they are "siblings" on the file system

Generate docs

Decide which version and project you want to build docs for. Then, in ember.js and/or ember-data repositories, check out the version tags you want to generate docs for. For example:

cd ../ember.js
get fetch --all
git checkout v5.2.0

AND/OR

cd ../data
get fetch --all
git checkout v5.2.0

Generate the JSON docs for ember and/or ember-data. This will add new JSON files into the s3-docs directory of ember-api-docs-data:

cd ../ember-jsonapi-docs
yarn
yarn gen --project ember --version "5.2.0"

I would recommend committing in ember-api-docs-data at this stage so that you can see that the following steps work.

cd ../ember-api-docs-data/
git add . 
git commit -m "add docs for ember v5.2.0"

Next, we need to fix the generated files in ember-api-docs-data. (Note: this step could probably be incorporated into ember-jsonapi-docs but for now this step works).

npm run fix:files
git add .
git commit -m "fix urls and rev-index for ember"

Lastly, we need to make sure that each of the new files are valid. You need to run the test suite in ember-api-docs-data

npm i
npm test

If you see any errors e.g. AssertionError: expected '' not to be empty you need to manually fix these. These are caused by bugs in the yuidoc generation and can probably be fixed in the source files somehow.

Once all of the fixes are in place you can commit them:

git add .
git commit -m "fixing tests for ember"

Once that is all committed I would recommend doing the same thing for ember-data with new commits:

cd ../ember-jsonapi-docs
yarn gen --project ember-data --version "5.2.0"

cd ../ember-api-docs-data

git add . 
git commit -m "add docs for ember-data v5.2.0"

npm run fix:files
git add .
git commit -m "fix urls and rev-index for ember-data"

npm test

# if you needed to fix any files you do that now and then
git add .
git commit -m "fixing tests for ember-data"

Once that is all done, push it and open a PR 🎉

ℹ️ NOTE: --version should match the one in the package.json of a target Ember project. If package.json uses a release name (e.g. beta or canary), omit it and use only numbers. For example, if the package.json says 3.19.0-beta.2, use 3.19.0.

TIP: If you are debugging failed builds, periodically discard the changes made to ember-api-docs-data, since changes are made in-place.

(Optional) View the generated docs in the ember-api-docs frontend
