xyDocumentor

xyDocumentor is an open source CLI tool for generating API documentation from C# projects.
It supports Markdown, HTML, PDF, and JSON output. Scans all C# files in the specified root directory and all its subfolders. Extracts all types and nested types, methods, properties, events, fields, etc. Collects the XML Comments from the project. Generates a tree to visualize the project structure.

Usage example:

(Sample for easiest input to generate everything according to the standard settings) xydocgen =====>>>>> xydocgen --root [current working directory] --folder docs --subfolder api --exclude .git;bin;obj;node_modules;.vs;TestResults --format md

(Use dotnet at the start when installed locally) dotnet xydocgen --root . --out docs/api --exclude .git;bin;obj;node_modules;.vs;TestResults

(add this keyword to exclude non public) xydocgen --privat

(Choose your output flavour) xydocgen --format [json/pdf/html/md]

(Another Sample) xydocgen --root X://User/TestPrograms/TestRoot--out TestFolder/TestSubFolder

(Output a list of commands, MUST be the first argument if used (others will then be ignored)) xydocgen --help
