Is there a way to create Javadoc Style Documentation for SAHI scripts?

I have followed the recommended approach of using sahi-script for writing all my tests, as suggested by the tool's official documentation:

Now, I am looking to create a Javadoc-style documentation for my code. I attempted to generate it using Javadoc, thinking that since "The JS version can also call and reuse any Java code or libraries, so you can have the simplicity of JS but also use the power of Java when needed," it would work. However, I encountered the following error:

>javadoc baum.sah
>Loading source files for package baum.sah...
>javadoc warning: No source files for package baum.sah
>Constructing Javadoc information...
>javadoc warning: No source files for package baum.sah
>javadoc error: No public or protected classes found to document.
>1 error
>2 warnings

Here are my inquiries:

1.) Is there a method to generate Javadoc-style documentation without needing to translate all SAHI-script code into Java?

2.) If yes, could you provide a detailed step-by-step explanation of how you achieved this?

Answer №1

When it comes to Sahi code, it is primarily written in Javascript or a wrapper around javascript. If you want to generate javadoc style documentation for your sahi scripts, you can utilize jsdoc3 tool which is available at https://github.com/jsdoc3/jsdoc. In earlier versions of Sahi (approximately version 5.2), there used to be a file named apis.sah containing jsdoc3 style documentation.

Answer №2

Let me walk you through my process of converting Sahi's .sah files to .js files, as I encountered issues with running jsdoc-toolkit on them. First, ensure that you have Java installed: 

1.) Change the format from .sah to .js

2.) Download and extract a js toolkit

Follow these simple instructions to download a js toolkit: https://code.google.com/p/jsdoc-toolkit/wiki/InstallJsdoc

I recommend not using npm to install jsdoc in Windows 7, as it can lead to various issues. You can read about my experience here: https://github.com/npm/npm/wiki/Troubleshooting#upgrading-on-windows

3.) Run a command in Command Prompt where you extracted the jsdoc toolkit

path_to_unzipped_folder\jsdoc_toolkit-2.4.0\jsdoc-toolkit>java -jar jsrun.jar app/run.js your_file_path\anyfile.js -t=templates\jsdoc 


4.) Access your generated documentation html files here:

path_to_unzipped_folder\jsdoc_toolkit-2.4.0\jsdoc-toolkit\out\jsdoc
