Dress Code

You haven't shown up to the office in your underwear, neither should your UI.

Dress Code extracts certain comment blocks from your stylesheets and creates a styleguide with them.

Its really flexible, you can:

• Include your own CSS
• Include your own JS
• Render the styleguide with your own template

gem install dress_code

Dress code requires the python library "pygments" for syntax highlighting.

sudo easy_install pygments

Dress Code is generally used as a command line tool that takes a yaml config file. It will search your files and extract documentation that matches a regular expresssion.

Usage:

dress_code [config_path]

Example:

dress_code config/styleguide.yml

Example config yaml file:

# required - the file to generate
out_file: styleguide/index.html

# required - the files to extract docs from
glob: stylesheets/**/*.css

# optional - components can display where they are defined, this will be
# stripped from that definition
base_dir: stylesheets

# optional - mustache template rendered for the `out_file`
template: styleguide/index.mustache

# optional - CSS files to load in the template
css:
  - public/stylesheets/framework.css
  - public/stylesheets/app.css

# optional - Inline DressCode CSS styles, defaults to true
dress_code_css: false

# optional - JavaScript files to load in the template
js:
  - public/js/behaviors.js

# optional - Inline DressCode JS, defaults to true
dress_code_js: false

Comments like the following will be extracted from your stylesheets:

/*
@styleguide Buttons

Buttons are amazing.

```html
<button class="btn">Button</button>
```
*/

The content of your comment block is parsed as markdown with github-style code fences. HTML code fences will be syntax highlighted and rendered (YES RENDERED!) in your styleguide.

Feel free to extend DressCode::Extractor to match your own style of comments.

You can require any of the classes in lib to extend Dress Code for your particular needs. Check out bin/dress_code to see how to use them.
