r/technicalwriting on Reddit: Importing API Documents to DocFX
March 30, 2023 -

My company is using Microsoft's DocFx static site generator. It has a problem generating API documentation using YAML or JSON files. We may be switching to Sphinx because most of the company already uses that. Anyway, does anyone know of a tool that can be fed swagger docs or JSON files and convert them into a markdown page?

I'm new to automating swagger and files into markdown so if this question doesn't make sense, feel free to correct me.

Thanks in advance for the help.

December 13, 2021 - If you are currently using the Microsoft technology stack and you are looking to create meaningful documentation, then DocFX should be at the top of your list to review. It is highly customizable, both with themes and plug-ins, can be integrated in your CI/CD pipelines to automatically deploy updated documentation, and it produces documentation that will be very familiar looking to all the developers consuming it. As of the time of writing this article, my only drawback is the lack of support for generating swagger documentation from your OpenAPI 3.0 document.

The UID(Unique IDentifier) for the File is defined as the combination of host, basePath, info.title and info.version with / as separator. For example, the following Swagger API file has UID equals to microsoft.com/docfx/Contacts/1.6:

Using DocFX V3 | Voltstro
June 19, 2022 - Well it does, but the pre-release builds the DocFX team provides lacks any of the API documentation generation, which in my opinion is kinda stupid, as one of the main features of DocFX is it’s ability to generate these nice looking docs. However, it still lacks the ability to generate API documentation by only being provided a .csproj file, you MUST provide a pre-built .dll of your project with it’s XML documentation.

November 17, 2017 - For example, I tend to rename the “Articles” section to “Documentation”, and change “Api Documentation” to “Api Reference”. If you’d like to change these, you should rename the folders (optional), adjust docfx.json to include these folders in the build, and change the toc.yml accordingly.
