react-docgen-typescript

Build Status

A simple parser for React properties defined in TypeScript instead of propTypes.

It can be used with React Styleguidist.

Installation

npm install --save-dev react-docgen-typescript

React Styleguidist integration

Include following line in your styleguide.config.js:

propsParser: require('react-docgen-typescript').withDefaultConfig([parserOptions]).parse

or if you want to use custom tsconfig file

propsParser: require('react-docgen-typescript').withCustomConfig('./tsconfig.json', [parserOptions]).parse

parserOptions

  • propFilter:

    {
      skipPropsWithName?: string[] | string;
      skipPropsWithoutDoc?: boolean;
    }

    or

    (props: PropItem, component: Component) => boolean

    Note: children without a doc comment will not be documented.

Example

In the example folder you can see React Styleguidist integration.

The component Column.tsx

import * as React from 'react';
import { Component } from 'react';

/**
 * Column properties.
 */
export interface IColumnProps {
    /** prop1 description */
    prop1?: string;
    /** prop2 description */
    prop2: number;
    /**
     * prop3 description
     */
    prop3: () => void;
    /** prop4 description */
    prop4: 'option1' | 'option2' | 'option3';
}

/**
 * Form column.
 */
export class Column extends Component<IColumnProps, {}> {
    render() {
        return <div>Test</div>;
    }
}

Will generate the following stylesheet:

Stylesheet example

The functional component Grid.tsx

import * as React from 'react';

/**
 * Grid properties.
 */
export interface IGridProps {
    /** prop1 description */
    prop1?: string;
    /** prop2 description */
    prop2: number;
    /**
     * prop3 description
     */
    prop3: () => void;
    /** Working grid description */
    prop4: 'option1' | 'option2' | 'option3';
}

/**
 * Form Grid.
 */
export const Grid = (props: IGridProps) => {
    const smaller = () => {return;};
    return <div>Grid</div>;
};

Will generate the following stylesheet:

Contributions

The typescript is pretty complex and there are many different way how to define components and their props so it's realy hard to support all diferent use cases. That means only one thing, contributions are highly welcome. Just keep in mind that each PR should also include tests for the part it's fixing.
