Documentation generator for TypeScript projects.
For more detailed documentation, and TypeDoc documentation rendered with TypeDoc, see https://typedoc.org.
TypeDoc runs on Node.js and is available as a NPM package.
npm install typedoc --save-dev
To generate documentation TypeDoc needs to know your project entry point, and TypeScript
compiler options. It will automatically try to find your tsconfig.json file, so you can
just specify the entry point of your library:
typedoc src/index.ts
If you have multiple entry points, specify each of them. If you specify a directory, TypeDoc will treat each file contained within it as an entry point.
typedoc package1/index.ts package2/index.ts
For a complete list of the command line arguments run typedoc --help or visit
our website.
--out <path/to/documentation/>

Specify a json option file that should be loaded. If not specified TypeDoc will look for 'typedoc.json' in the current directory.--tsconfig <path/to/tsconfig.json>
Specify a typescript config file that should be loaded. If not specified TypeDoc will look for 'tsconfig.json' in the current directory.
--exclude <pattern>
Exclude files by the given pattern when a path is provided as source. Supports standard minimatch patterns.--excludeNotDocumented
