Docusaurus Plugin `react-docgen-typescript`

A Docusaurus 2.x plugin that help generate and consume auto-generated docs from react-docgen-typescript.

Installation

Grab from NPM and install along with react-docgen-typescript:

npm i docusaurus-plugin-react-docgen-typescript react-docgen-typescript # or
yarn add docusaurus-plugin-react-docgen-typescript react-docgen-typescript

Usage

Inside your docusaurus.config.js add to the plugins field and configure with the src option with full glob support 👍.

module.exports = {
    // ...
    plugins: [
        [
            'docusaurus-plugin-react-docgen-typescript',
            {
                // pass in a single string or an array of strings
                src: ['path/to/**/*.tsx', '!path/to/**/*test.*'],
                global: true,
                parserOptions: {
                    // pass parserOptions to react-docgen-typescript
                    // here is a good starting point which filters out all
                    // types from react
                    propFilter: (prop, component) => {
                        if (prop.parent) {
                            return !prop.parent.fileName.includes('@types/react');
                        }

                        return true;
                    },
                },
            },
        ],
    ],
};

Any pattern supported by fast-glob is allowed here (including negations).

Reading Annotations

Using the default settings, annotations are stored inside of the .docusaurus directory. The @docgen alias is set to ensure stable access to these files.

Build a Prop Table

Most of the time props will want to be shown as API information to a particular component. For convenience, we can use a simple hook from this package to dynamically import .json files:

import * as React from 'react';
import { useDynamicImport } from 'docusaurus-plugin-react-docgen-typescript/pkg/dist-src/hooks/useDynamicImport';

export const PropTable = ({ name }) => {
    const props = useDynamicImport(name);

    return (
        <table>
            <thead>
                <tr>
                    <th>Name</th>
                    <th>Type</th>
                    <th>Default Value</th>
                    <th>Required</th>
                    <th>Description</th>
                </tr>
            </thead>
            <tbody>
                {Object.keys(props).map(key => {
                    return (
                        <tr key={key}>
                            <td>
                                <code>{key}</code>
                            </td>
                            <td>
                                <code>{props[key].type?.name}</code>
                            </td>
                            <td>
                                {props[key].defaultValue && (
                                    <code>{props[key].defaultValue.value}</code>
                                )}
                            </td>
                            <td>{props[key].required ? 'Yes' : 'No'}</td>
                            <td>{props[key].description}</td>
                        </tr>
                    );
                })}
            </tbody>
        </table>
    );
};
