Livedoc is a documentation generator for REST and websocket services, inspired by the JSONDoc project.
Livedoc tries to read all the doc from the code and the Javadoc. Annotations are considered a failure of Livedoc to grasp an aspect of the code. They should mostly be used to add what Livedoc couldn't read from the code, or override a piece of documentation that does not match the user's needs.
This is one of the reasons why it should be quick to add Livedoc to your project.
Check out the official documentation to get started with Livedoc.
Try it yourself! Run the demo:
docker run -p 8080:8080 docker.io/hildan/livedoc-demo:latest
Then navigate to http://localhost:8080/livedoc/index.html to see what it looks like. You can see the code directly in this Github repository as the sample-app subproject.
Credits to @fabiomaffioletti for his great work on the original JSONDoc project, and to all contributors that helped him build JSONDoc up to version 1.2.17, which I started from.
Special thanks to @ST-DDT for his very constructive feedback, both on the original project and on Livedoc.
Livedoc uses the therapi-runtime-javadoc library by @dnault for its Javadoc-related processing.
