## Current Features for documentation
#### This tool allows for the generation of new documentation through templating
From the `gocryptotrader/cmd/documentation/` folder, using the go command: **go run documentation.go** this will auto-generate and regenerate documentation across the **GoCryptoTrader** code base.
>Using the -v command will, ie **go run documentation.go -v** put the tool into verbose mode allowing you to see what is happening with a little more depth.
Be aware, this tool will:
- Works off a configuration JSON file located at ``gocryptotrader/cmd/documentation/`` for future use with multiple repositories.
- Automatically find the directory and file tree for the GoCryptoTrader source code and alert you of undocumented file systems which **need** to be updated.
- Automatically find the template folder tree.
- Fetch an updated contributor list and rank on pull request commit amount. Set the `GITHUB_TOKEN` environment variable or use the `ghtoken` command-line flag for optional authentication.
- Sets up core folder docs for the root directory tree including **LICENSE** and **CONTRIBUTORS**
### config.json example
```json
{
"githubRepo": "https://api.github.com/repos/thrasher-corp/gocryptotrader", This is your current repo
"exclusionList": { This allows for excluded directories and files
"Files": null,
"Directories": [
"_templates",
".git",
"web"
]
},
"rootReadmeActive": true, allows a root directory README.md
"licenseFileActive": true, allows for a license file to be generated
"contributorFileActive": true, fetches a new contributor list
"referencePathToRepo": "../../"
}
```
### Template example
>place a new template **example_file.tmpl** located in the current gocryptotrader/cmd/documentation/ folder; when the documentation tool finishes it will give you the define template associated name e.g. ``Template not found for path ../../cmd/documentation create new template with \{\{define "cmd documentation" -\}\} TEMPLATE HERE \{\{end}}`` so you can replace the below example with ``\{\{define "cmd documentation" -}}``
```
\{\{\define "example_definition_created_by_documentation_tool" -}}
\{\{\template "header" .}}
## Current Features for documentation
#### A concise blurb about the package or tool system
