TypeDoc API - v0.28.2

    Class Renderer

    The renderer processes a ProjectReflection using a Theme instance and writes the emitted html documents to a output directory. You can specify which theme should be used using the --theme <name> command line argument.

    Renderer is a subclass of EventDispatcher and triggers a series of events while a project is being processed. You can listen to these events to control the flow or manipulate the output.

    Events

    EVENT_BEGIN: "beginRender" = RendererEvent.BEGIN
    EVENT_BEGIN_PAGE: "beginPage" = PageEvent.BEGIN
    EVENT_END: "endRender" = RendererEvent.END
    EVENT_END_PAGE: "endPage" = PageEvent.END
    EVENT_PREPARE_INDEX: "prepareIndex" = IndexEvent.PREPARE_INDEX

    Methods

    • Define a new theme that can be used to render output. This API will likely be changing at some point, to allow more easily overriding parts of the theme without requiring additional boilerplate.

      Parameters

      Returns void

    • Stops listening to an event.

      Type Parameters

      Parameters

      • event: K

        the event to stop listening to.

      • listener: (this: undefined, ...args: RendererEvents[K]) => void

        the function to remove from the listener array.

      Returns void

    • Starts listening to an event.

      Type Parameters

      Parameters

      • event: K

        the event to listen to.

      • listener: (this: undefined, ...args: RendererEvents[K]) => void

        function to be called when an this event is emitted.

      • priority: number = 0

        optional priority to insert this hook with. Higher priority is placed earlier in the listener array.

      Returns void

    • Internal

      intended for test usage only

      Parameters

      • name: string

      Returns void

    • Internal

      intended for test usage only

      Parameters

      • name: string

      Returns void

    • Render the given project reflection to the specified output directory.

      Parameters

      • project: Models.ProjectReflection

        The project that should be rendered.

      • outputDirectory: string

        The path of the directory the documentation should be rendered to.

      Returns Promise<void>

    Properties

    componentName: string

    The name of this component as set by the @Component decorator.

    Hooks which will be called when rendering pages. Note:

    • Hooks added during output will be discarded at the end of rendering.
    • Hooks added during a page render will be discarded at the end of that page's render.

    See RendererHooks for a description of each available hook, and when it will be called.

    markedPlugin: MarkedPlugin
    postRenderAsyncJobs: ((output: RendererEvent) => Promise<void>)[] = []

    A list of async jobs which must be completed after rendering output files but before generation is considered successful. These functions will be called after all documents have been written to the filesystem.

    This may be used by plugins to register work that must be done to finalize output files. For example: asynchronously generating an image referenced in a render hook.

    Note: This array is cleared after calling the contained functions on each Renderer.render call.

    preRenderAsyncJobs: ((output: RendererEvent) => Promise<void>)[] = []

    A list of async jobs which must be completed before rendering output. They will be called after RendererEvent.BEGIN has fired, but before any files have been written.

    This may be used by plugins to register work that must be done to prepare output files. For example: asynchronously transform markdown to HTML.

    Note: This array is cleared after calling the contained functions on each Renderer.render call.

    renderStartTime: number = -1
    router?: Router

    The router which is used to determine the pages to render and how to link between pages.

    theme?: Theme

    The theme that is used to render the documentation.
