The implementation adds three plugins to the remark processor:
* remove support for code blocks triggered by indented
text - only gfm triple backticks are supported; and also adds support for
dgeni inline tags.
* ignore content within `code-example` and `code-tabs` elements. This prevents
the content being accidentally treated as markdown
* ignore dgeni inline tags, e.g. `{@link ... }` to prevent the content of
the links from being accidentally treated as markdown
Documentation Generation
The dgeni tool is used to generate the documentation from the source files held in this repository.
The documentation generation is configured by a dgeni package defined in docs/angular.io-package/index.js.
This package, in turn requires a number of other packages, some are defined locally in the docs folder,
such as docs/cheatsheet-package and docs/content-package, etc. And some are brought in from the
dgeni-packages node modules, such as jsdoc and nunjucks.
Generating the docs
To generate the documentation simply run gulp docs from the command line.
Testing the dgeni packages
The local packages have unit tests that you can execute by running gulp docs-test from the command line.
What does it generate?
The output from dgeni is written to files in the dist/docs folder.
Notably this includes a partial HTML file for each "page" of the documentation, such as API pages and guides. It also includes JavaScript files that contain metadata about the documentation such as navigation data and keywords for building a search index.
Viewing the docs
You can view the dummy demo app using a simple HTTP server hosting dist/docs/index.html
