Pete Bacon Darwin d509bd6849 build(aio): improve the API Pipe pages (#22702)
This change adds:

* an impure badge for Pipes that are marked as  `pure: false`
* a pipe specific overview that shows the syntax for using a pipe in a template.
* an "input value" section describing the type of the value that the pipe expects.
* a "pipe params" section describing any additional params that a pipe expects.

This folder contains the dgeni templates that are used to generate the API docs

Generally there is a template for each docType. Templates can extend and/or include other templates. Templates can also import macros from other template files.

Template inheritance

When extending a template, parent must declare blocks that can be overridden by the child. The template extension hierarchy looks like this (with declared blocks in parentheses):

  • layout/base.template.html (base)
    • module.template.html
    • layout/api-base.template.html (jumpNav, jumpNavLinks, whatItDoes, infoBar, securityConsiderations, deprecationNotes, howToUse, details)
      • class.template.html
        • directive.template.html
        • enum.template.html
      • var.template.html
        • const.template.html
        • let.template.html
      • decorator.template.html
      • function.template.html
      • interface.template.html
        • type-alias.template.html
      • pipe.template.html

Doc Properties

It is useful to know what properties are available on each doc type when working with the templates. The typescript Dgeni package is now written in TypeScript and there is a class for each of the types of API document. See https://github.com/angular/dgeni-packages/tree/master/typescript/src/api-doc-types. This is a good place to go to see what properties you can use in the templates.
