Baseline

An extensible template for JSDoc 3.

This is a preview version of the Baseline template. Baseline is still under active development. Everything in the template is subject to change.

What is Baseline?

Baseline is a new HTML template for JSDoc 3. It offers several benefits:

Extensible from the ground up. You can use extensions to customize your documentation's content and appearance without changing Baseline itself. In addition, you can localize the headings and other text that are added by the template. Note: Customization options are limited in this preview version. More options will be available soon.
Easy to navigate. An expandable table of contents helps users find what they're looking for. Also, a summary at the top of each page shows users what's documented on that page.
Modern template syntax. Baseline uses Handlebars, a powerful JavaScript template engine, to define the template layout. Handlebars makes it possible to define new tags and helpers that you can use in your customizations to Baseline.

Installing Baseline

Install JSDoc.

Note: Baseline currently requires JSDoc 3.4.0 or later.

To install JSDoc globally (may require sudo):
```
 npm install -g jsdoc
```
To add JSDoc to your Node.js project as a development dependency:
```
 npm install --save-dev jsdoc
```
Add the Baseline template to your Node.js project as a development dependency:
```
 npm install --save-dev @sugarcrm/jsdoc-baseline
```

Configuring and Using Baseline

To use the Baseline template with its default settings, simply run JSDoc with the --template (or -t) command-line option:

jsdoc --template <path/to/baseline> <path/to/js-files>

To use the Baseline template with customized settings:

Copy baseline-config.json.EXAMPLE to a new file (for example, baseline-config.json).
Modify the configuration file as needed. See baseline-config.json.EXAMPLE for information about the supported options. You can use comments in the configuration file.
Update your JSDoc conf.json file to include a templates.baseline property. This property must contain the path to your Baseline configuration file.
Run JSDoc as shown above, using the --configure (or -c) option to tell JSDoc where to find your conf.json file:
```
 jsdoc --configure <path/to/conf.json> --template <path/to/baseline> <path/to/js-files>
```

Note: Future versions of Baseline will provide additional configuration settings, including settings for overriding and modifying portions of the template.
