An extensible template for JSDoc.

This is a preview version of the Baseline template. Baseline is under active development. Everything in the template is subject to change.

Baseline is an HTML template for JSDoc. It offers several benefits:

• Extensible from the ground up. You can use extensions to customize your documentation's content and appearance without changing Baseline itself. In addition, you can localize the headings and other text that are added by the template. Note: Customization options are limited in this preview version.
• Easy to navigate. An expandable table of contents helps users find what they're looking for. Also, a summary at the top of each page shows what's documented on that page.
• Modern template syntax. Baseline uses Nunjucks, a powerful JavaScript template engine, to define the template layout. You can define new Nunjucks filters and use them in your customizations to Baseline.

1. Add JSDoc to your Node.js project as a development dependency:

   npm install --save-dev jsdoc

2. Add the Baseline template to your Node.js project as a development dependency:

   npm install --save-dev jsdoc-baseline

To use the Baseline template with its default settings, run JSDoc with the --template (or -t) command-line option:

jsdoc --template <path/to/baseline> <path/to/js-files>

To use the Baseline template with customized settings:

1. Copy baseline-config-example.json to a new file (for example, baseline-config.json).
2. Modify the configuration file as needed. See baseline-config-example.json for information about the supported options. You can use comments in the configuration file.
3. Update your JSDoc conf.json file to include a templates.baseline property. This property must contain the path to your Baseline configuration file.
4. Run JSDoc as shown above, using the --configure (or -c) option to tell JSDoc where to find your conf.json file:

jsdoc --configure <path/to/conf.json> --template <path/to/baseline> <path/to/js-files>
