Interface TypeDocOptionMap

Describes all TypeDoc options. Used internally to provide better types when fetching options. External consumers should likely use TypeDocOptions instead.

If writing a plugin, you may find it useful to use declaration merging to add your options to this interface so that you have autocomplete when using app.options.getValue.

Type declaration

  • ReadonlyExpand: "expand"

    The default behavior in v0.21 and earlier. Behaves like the resolve behavior, but will recursively expand directories into an entry point for each file within the directory.

  • ReadonlyMerge: "merge"

    Merges multiple previously generated output from TypeDoc's --json output together into a single project.

  • ReadonlyPackages: "packages"

    Run TypeDoc in each directory passed as an entry point. Once all directories have been converted, use the merge option to produce final output.

  • ReadonlyResolve: "resolve"

    The default behavior in v0.22+, expects all provided entry points as being part of a single program. Any directories included in the entry point list will result in dir/index.([cm][tj]s|[tj]sx?) being used.

markdownItLoader: ManuallyValidatedOption<((parser: any) => void)>

Will be called when TypeDoc is setting up the markdown parser to use to render markdown. Can be used to add markdown-it plugins to the parser with code like this:

// typedoc.config.mjs
import iterator from "markdown-it-for-inline";
export default {
/** @param {MarkdownIt} parser */
markdownItLoader(parser) {
parser.use(iterator, "foo_replace", "text", function(tokens, idx) {
tokens[idx].content = tokens[idx].content.replace(/foo/g, 'bar');
});
}
}

Note: Unfortunately, markdown-it doesn't ship its own types, so parser isn't strictly typed here.
