From 3313b6124b524893683311e01437a82b40784e8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Marc-Andr=C3=A9=20Lureau?= Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2017 15:41:29 +0100 Subject: qapi: add qapi2texi script MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit As the name suggests, the qapi2texi script converts JSON QAPI description into a texi file suitable for different target formats (info/man/txt/pdf/html...). It parses the following kind of blocks: Free-form: ## # = Section # == Subsection # # Some text foo with *emphasis* # 1. with a list # 2. like that # # And some code: # | $ echo foo # | -> do this # | <- get that # ## Symbol description: ## # @symbol: # # Symbol body ditto ergo sum. Foo bar # baz ding. # # @param1: the frob to frobnicate # @param2: #optional how hard to frobnicate # # Returns: the frobnicated frob. # If frob isn't frobnicatable, GenericError. # # Since: version # Notes: notes, comments can have # - itemized list # - like this # # Example: # # -> { "execute": "quit" } # <- { "return": {} } # ## That's roughly following the following EBNF grammar: api_comment = "##\n" comment "##\n" comment = freeform_comment | symbol_comment freeform_comment = { "# " text "\n" | "#\n" } symbol_comment = "# @" name ":\n" { member | tag_section | freeform_comment } member = "# @" name ':' [ text ] "\n" freeform_comment tag_section = "# " ( "Returns:", "Since:", "Note:", "Notes:", "Example:", "Examples:" ) [ text ] "\n" freeform_comment text = free text with markup Note that the grammar is ambiguous: a line "# @foo:\n" can be parsed both as freeform_comment and as symbol_comment. The actual parser recognizes symbol_comment. See docs/qapi-code-gen.txt for more details. Deficiencies and limitations: - the generated QMP documentation includes internal types - union type support is lacking - type information is lacking in generated documentation - doc comment error message positions are imprecise, they point to the beginning of the comment. - a few minor issues, all marked TODO/FIXME in the code Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau Message-Id: <20170113144135.5150-16-marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster [test-qapi.py tweaked to avoid trailing empty lines in .out] Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster --- tests/qapi-schema/doc-missing-expr.err | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) create mode 100644 tests/qapi-schema/doc-missing-expr.err (limited to 'tests/qapi-schema/doc-missing-expr.err') diff --git a/tests/qapi-schema/doc-missing-expr.err b/tests/qapi-schema/doc-missing-expr.err new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..c0e687cadd --- /dev/null +++ b/tests/qapi-schema/doc-missing-expr.err @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +tests/qapi-schema/doc-missing-expr.json:3: Documention for 'bar' is not followed by the definition -- cgit v1.2.3
