# jest-docblock
`jest-docblock` is a package that can extract and parse a specially-formatted comment called a "docblock" at the top of a file.
A docblock looks like this:
```js /** * Stuff goes here! */ ```
Docblocks can contain pragmas, which are words prefixed by `@`:
```js /** * Pragma incoming! * * @flow */ ```
Pragmas can also take arguments:
```js /** * Check this out: * * @myPragma it is so cool */ ```
`jest-docblock` can:
- extract the docblock from some code as a string - parse a docblock string's pragmas into an object - print an object and some comments back to a string
## Installation
```sh # with yarn
$ yarn add jest-docblock # with npm
$ npm install jest-docblock ```
## Usage
```js const code = ` /** * Everything is awesome! * * @everything is:awesome * @flow */
export const everything = Object.create(null); export default function isAwesome(something) { return something === everything; } `;
const { extract, strip, parse, parseWithComments, print, } = require('jest-docblock');
const docblock = extract(code); console.log(docblock); // "/**\n * Everything is awesome!\n * \n * @everything is:awesome\n * @flow\n */"
const stripped = strip(code); console.log(stripped); // "export const everything = Object.create(null);\n export default function isAwesome(something) {\n return something === everything;\n }"
const pragmas = parse(docblock); console.log(pragmas); // { everything: "is:awesome", flow: "" }
const parsed = parseWithComments(docblock); console.log(parsed); // { comments: "Everything is awesome!", pragmas: { everything: "is:awesome", flow: "" } }
console.log(print({pragmas, comments: 'hi!'})); // /**\n * hi!\n *\n * @everything is:awesome\n * @flow\n */; ```
## API Documentation
### `extract(contents: string): string`
Extracts a docblock from some file contents. Returns the docblock contained in `contents`. If `contents` did not contain a docblock, it will return the empty string (`""`).
### `strip(contents: string): string`
Strips the top docblock from a file and return the result. If a file does not have a docblock at the top, then return the file unchanged.
### `parse(docblock: string): {[key: string]: string | string[] }`
Parses the pragmas in a docblock string into an object whose keys are the pragma tags and whose values are the arguments to those pragmas.
### `parseWithComments(docblock: string): { comments: string, pragmas: {[key: string]: string | string[]} }`
Similar to `parse` except this method also returns the comments from the docblock. Useful when used with `print()`.
### `print({ comments?: string, pragmas?: {[key: string]: string | string[]} }): string`
Prints an object of key-value pairs back into a docblock. If `comments` are provided, they will be positioned on the top of the docblock.
