- Added module_md template to renderer for generating detailed module documentation - Updated CLI to use renderer for module docs with fallback to simple template - Generated module documentation for test project files with symbols, dependencies, and integrations - Added proper error handling when module rendering fails This implements the core functionality for generating detailed architectural documentation at the module level, including symbols, dependencies, and integration points.
ArchDoc
ArchDoc is a tool for automatically generating architecture documentation for Python projects. It analyzes your Python codebase and creates comprehensive documentation that helps developers understand the structure, dependencies, and key components of the project.
Features
- Automatic Documentation Generation: Automatically generates architecture documentation from Python source code
- AST-Based Analysis: Uses Python AST to extract imports, definitions, and function calls
- Diff-Aware Updates: Preserves manual content while updating generated sections
- Caching: Caches analysis results for faster subsequent runs
- Configurable: Highly configurable through
archdoc.toml - Template-Based Rendering: Uses Handlebars templates for customizable output
Installation
To install ArchDoc, you'll need Rust installed on your system. Then run:
cargo install --path archdoc-cli
Usage
Initialize Configuration
First, initialize the configuration in your project:
archdoc init
This creates an archdoc.toml file with default settings.
Generate Documentation
Generate architecture documentation for your project:
archdoc generate
This will create documentation files in the configured output directory.
Check Documentation Consistency
Verify that your documentation is consistent with the code:
archdoc check
Configuration
ArchDoc is configured through an archdoc.toml file. Here's an example configuration:
[project]
root = "."
out_dir = "docs/architecture"
entry_file = "ARCHITECTURE.md"
language = "python"
[scan]
include = ["src"]
exclude = [".venv", "venv", "__pycache__", ".git", "dist", "build"]
[python]
src_roots = ["src"]
include_tests = true
parse_docstrings = true
[analysis]
resolve_calls = true
detect_integrations = true
[output]
single_file = false
per_file_docs = true
create_directories = true
[caching]
enabled = true
cache_dir = ".archdoc/cache"
max_cache_age = "24h"
How It Works
- Scanning: ArchDoc scans your project directory for Python files based on the configuration
- Parsing: It parses each Python file using AST to extract structure and relationships
- Analysis: It analyzes the code to identify imports, definitions, and function calls
- Documentation Generation: It generates documentation using templates
- Output: It writes the documentation to files, preserving manual content
