Integrating TypeDoc with VisualStudio

[pitus]

Are there any plans to add support for TypeDoc directly from within VisualStudio so that the documentation parameters can be shared with the current project (root, typescript configuration...)

If not, how would one go about configuring VS to automatically launch TypeDoc and supply project parameters to it? Post-build, custom tool?

Hi pithus, welcome to GitHub. I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with VisualStudio as I don't use it. We would probably have to write an extension, but as the free versions of VisualStudio don't support extensions I don't see any possibility for doing that. However as this is an open source project, anybody who wants to develop such an extension is welcome to do so under the same conditions.

The easiest way to share the setup with others would be by using a simple batch or shell script. Most people around here like using task runners like Grunt or Gulp which will share the settings with their config file, there are plugins available for TypeDoc for both of them.
