Eve-docs | ||
======== | ||
|
||
A blueprint that generates documentation for | ||
`Eve <https://github.com/nicolaiarocci/eve>`__ APIs in HTML and JSON | ||
formats. Eve-docs creates the documentation from your existing Eve | ||
configuration file, with no additional configuration required. | ||
|
||
Installation | ||
~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
|
||
Clone this repo into your Eve application and modify your launch script | ||
to activate the blueprints: | ||
|
||
:: | ||
|
||
from flask.ext.bootstrap import Bootstrap | ||
from eve_docs import eve_docs | ||
... | ||
Bootstrap(app) | ||
app.register_blueprint(eve_docs, url_prefix='/docs') | ||
|
||
After restarting, documentation is availabile at the ``url_prefix`` | ||
defined in your launch script. ``example.py`` shows how to do this using | ||
the launch script from Nicola Iarocci's | ||
`eve-demo <https://github.com/nicolaiarocci/eve-demo>`__ repo. | ||
|
||
HTML output | ||
~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
|
||
The HTML documentation is produced using the | ||
`Flask-Bootstrap <https://github.com/mbr/flask-bootstrap>`__ blueprint. | ||
Expand each domain to show available endpoint methods, and further | ||
expand each method to show parameter details. A screenshot with one | ||
method expanded follows, and you can also view a `fully expanded | ||
example <http://charonex.com/img/evedocs-example2.png>`__. |Sample | ||
output| | ||
|
||
JSON output | ||
~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
|
||
Documentation is also exposed as JSON at ``url_prefix/spec.json`` for | ||
programmatic consumption. Example output: | ||
|
||
:: | ||
|
||
{ | ||
"base": "http://localhost:5000", | ||
"domains": { | ||
"people": { | ||
"/people/{_id}": { | ||
"GET": { | ||
"label": "Retrieve a person", | ||
"params": [ | ||
{ | ||
"name": "_id", | ||
"type": "string", | ||
"required": true | ||
} | ||
