Ultra-lightweight literate programming[1] for Clojure and ClojureScript inspired by docco
Marginalia is a source code documentation tool that parses Clojure and ClojureScript code and outputs a side-by-side source view with appropriate comments and docstrings aligned.
To get a quick look at what the Marginalia output looks like, visit the official site.
View the release notes for this version of Marginalia
Currently Marginalia can be used in a number of ways as described below.
http://github.com/fogus/lein-marginalia
To use Marginalia with Leiningen add the following code to the project's project.clj
file, in the :dev-dependencies
argument of the defproject
function:
:dev-dependencies [lein-marginalia "0.7.1"]
After executing lein deps
you can generate your complete source documentation with the command:
lein marg <options> <files>
Marginalia accepts options as described below:
- -d --dir Directory into which the documentation will be written (default
docs
) - -f --file File into which the documentation will be written (default
uberdoc.html
) - -n --name Project name (if not given will be taken from
project.clj
) - -v --version Project version (if not given will be taken from
project.clj
) - -D --desc Project description (if not given will be taken from
project.clj
) - -a --deps Project dependencies in the form
<group1>:<artifact1>:<version1>;<group2>...
(if not given will be taken fromproject.clj
) - -c --css Additional css resources
<resource1>;<resource2>;...
(if not given will be taken fromproject.clj
) - -j --js Additional javascript resources
<jsfile1>;<jsfile2>;...
(if not given will be taken fromproject.clj
) - -m --multi Generate each namespace documentation as a separate file
The zi plugin supports Marginalia.
Add this code to the project's pom.xml
file, and run the command mvn zi:marginalia
.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.cloudhoist.plugin</groupId>
<artifactId>zi</artifactId>
<version>0.5.0</version>
<configuration>
<marginaliaTargetDirectory>autodoc/marginalia</marginaliaTargetDirectory>
</configuration>
</plugin>
And the following to the project's settings.xml
file.

I would like to thank Zachary Kim for taking a pile of incoherent code and making it something worth using. Marginalia would be nothing without his hard work and vision.
I would also like to thank Justin Balthrop and Brenton Ashworth for their support and code contributions.

[1] While the phrase ultra-lightweight literate programming is used to describe Marginalia, it is in no way a tool for classical literate programming. That is, Marginalia is a linear documentation generator allowing no out-of-order reassembly of source.
