fsdocs and FSharp.Formatting Build and Test NuGet

FSharp.Formatting is a set of libraries and tools for processing F# script files and markdown, and for generating API documentation from XML doc comments. The primary tool is fsdocs.

Full documentation: https://fsprojects.github.io/FSharp.Formatting/

The fsdocs tool

fsdocs builds a static documentation site from the markdown files and F# scripts in your docs folder, plus API reference pages for the projects in your solution.

dotnet tool install fsdocs-tool
dotnet fsdocs build
dotnet fsdocs watch
  • init creates a docs folder with a default index.md.
  • build processes the docs folder and writes the site to output.
  • watch builds the site, serves it locally and rebuilds on every change.
  • convert converts individual markdown and script files.

Run dotnet fsdocs <command> --help to see the options of a command, or read the command line guide.

The libraries

The same functionality is available as NuGet packages for use from your own code:

  • FSharp.Formatting bundles the markdown parser, F# code formatter, literate programming support and API doc generator.
  • FSharp.Formatting.Literate only contains the literate programming support and its dependencies.

See Markdown parser, F# code formatting and literate programming for examples.

Contributing

See CONTRIBUTING.md for how to build the repository and run the tool locally.

### Fixed

- The Markdown output marks the namespace of the page in the menu. The menu of the page was overwritten by the site-wide one, which marks nothing, the way the HTML output was until 23.0.0-alpha.5. [#1330](https://github.com/fsprojects/FSharp.Formatting/pull/1330)
- API docs keep the comment of a member whose signature has a type abbreviation of a function type in the range of a function type, such as `(string -> IsPathIgnored) * (unit -> int)` with `type IsPathIgnored = string -> bool`. Reading the member threw `ArgumentOutOfRangeException` and the comment was dropped. The abbreviation is now shown under its own name, as it is everywhere else. [#1327](https://github.com/fsprojects/FSharp.Formatting/issues/1327)

### Changed

- The API Reference section of the menu lists the namespaces on every page of the site. The content pages got a single "All Namespaces" link instead, and only a collection named `FSharp.Core` got the list there, which made the menu of a content page a different menu from the one of an API page. No entry is marked active while the reader is on a content page. [#1330](https://github.com/fsprojects/FSharp.Formatting/pull/1330)
- The header of that section reads "API Reference" on the API pages as well, where 23.0.0-alpha.5 made it "Namespaces". A menu template sees the same `{{fsdocs-menu-header-content}}` and `{{fsdocs-menu-header-id}}` (`api_reference`) on every page of the site now. The built-in menu keeps the header as the link to the index of all namespaces. [#1330](https://github.com/fsprojects/FSharp.Formatting/pull/1330)
