2013-06-04 19:26:14 +02:00
## Folders
2013-06-04 20:23:01 +02:00
2013-06-04 19:26:14 +02:00
The generator will look for folders in the `/docs` folder. Add your folders inside the `/docs` folder. This project contains some example folders and files to get you started. It also contains a `Markdown Tests` folder which contains the official suite of tests for checking the functionality of the Markdown parser.
You can nest the folders any number of levels to get the exact structure you want. The folder structure will be converted to the nested navigation.
## Files
2013-06-04 20:23:01 +02:00
2013-06-04 19:26:14 +02:00
The generator will look for Markdown files inside the `/docs` folder and any of your subfolders.
2013-06-04 20:23:01 +02:00
You must use the `.md` file extension for your files. Also, you must use underscores instead of spaces. Here are some example file names and what they will be converted to:
2013-06-04 19:26:14 +02:00
2013-06-04 20:23:01 +02:00
**Good:**
2013-06-04 19:26:14 +02:00
2013-06-04 20:23:01 +02:00
* 01_Getting_Started.md = Getting Started
* API_Calls.md = API Calls
* 200_Something_Else-Cool.md = Something Else-Cool
**Bad:**
* File Name With Space.md = FAIL
2013-06-04 19:26:14 +02:00
## Sorting
2013-06-04 20:23:01 +02:00
To sort your files and folders in a specific way, you can prefix them with a number and underscore, e.g. `/docs/01_Hello_World.md` and `/docs/05_Features.md` This will list *Hello World* before *Features*, overriding the alpha-numeric sorting, which is the default. The numbers will be stripped out of the navigation.
2013-06-04 19:26:14 +02:00
## Configuration
2013-06-04 20:23:01 +02:00
To customize the look and feel of your documentation, you can create a `config.json` file in the of the `/docs` folder. The `config.json` file is a simple JSON object that you can use to change some of the basic settings of the documentation.
