5.1.1 Special variables

Special Variable: *discard-documentation-p* ¶

The default value of DEFSECTION’s DISCARD-DOCUMENTATION-P argument. One may want to set ‘*DISCARD-DOCUMENTATION-P*‘ to true before building a binary application.

Package

40ants-doc.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Special Variable: *source-uri-fn* ¶

Set this to a function of one argument.

The argument of this function will be a 40ANTS-DOC/REFERENCE:REFERENCE object and the result should be a full URL leading to the web page where referenced object can be viewed. Usually this is a GitHub’s page.

When you are using 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/BUILDER:UPDATE-ASDF-SYSTEM-DOCS, this variable will be automatically bound to the result of 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/GITHUB:MAKE-GITHUB-SOURCE-URI-FN function call if ASDF system has a :SOURCE-CONTROL slot.

See 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/GITHUB:MAKE-GITHUB-SOURCE-URI-FN for details.

Package

40ants-doc/reference-api.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Special Variable: *symbols-with-ignored-missing-locations* ¶

Sometimes code might be generated without source location attached.

For example Mito generates slot readers this way.
Such symbols should be added to this list to skip warnings during the documentation build.

Use such code to add a new symbol to ignore:

“‘lisp
(eval-when (:compile-toplevel :load-toplevel :execute)
(pushnew ’reblocks-auth/models:profile-user 40ants-doc:*symbols-with-ignored-missing-locations*))
“‘

5.1.2 Macros

Macro: defchangelog ((&key title ignore-words external-docs external-links) &body versions) ¶

This macro might be used to define a ChangeLog in a structured way. With DEFCHANGELOG you specify a body where each sublist starts with a version number and the rest is it’s description in the markdown format. You can mention symbols from the rest of the documentation and they will be cross-linked automatically if you are using 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/BUILDER:UPDATE-ASDF-SYSTEM-DOCS function.

Here is an example:

“‘lisp
(defchangelog ()
(0.2.0
"- Feature B implemented.
- Bug was fixed in function FOO.")

(0.1.0
"- Project forked from [MGL-PAX](https://github.com/melisgl/mgl-pax). - Feature A implemented."))
“‘

Package

40ants-doc/changelog.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Macro: define-definer-for-symbol-locative-type (name locative-type &body docstring) ¶

Define a macro with NAME which can be used to attach documentation, a lambda-list and source location to a symbol in the context of LOCATIVE-TYPE. The defined macro’s arglist is (SYMBOL LAMBDA-LIST &OPTIONAL DOCSTRING). LOCATIVE-TYPE is assumed to have been defined with 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/LOCATIVES/DEFINERS:DEFINE-SYMBOL-LOCATIVE-TYPE.

Package

40ants-doc/locatives/define-definer.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Macro: define-glossary-term (name (&key title discard-documentation-p) docstring) ¶

Define a global variable with NAME and set it to a glossary term
object. A glossary term is just a symbol to hang a docstring on. It
is a bit like a 40ANTS-DOC:SECTION in that, when linked to, its TITLE will be the link text instead of the name of the symbol. Unlike sections
though, glossary terms are not rendered with headings, but in the
more lightweight bullet + locative + name/title style.

When DISCARD-DOCUMENTATION-P (defaults to 40ANTS-DOC:*DISCARD-DOCUMENTATION-P*) is true, DOCSTRING will not be recorded to save memory.

Package

40ants-doc/glossary.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Macro: define-locative-type (locative-type lambda-list &body docstring) ¶

Declare LOCATIVE-TYPE as a locative. One gets two
things in return: first, a place to document the format and semantics of LOCATIVE-TYPE (in LAMBDA-LIST and DOCSTRING); second, being able to reference ‘(LOCATIVE-TYPE LOCATIVE)‘. For example, if you have:

“‘lisp
(define-locative-type variable (&optional initform)
"Dummy docstring.")
“‘

then ‘(VARIABLE LOCATIVE)‘ refers to this form.

Package

40ants-doc/locatives/base.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Macro: define-restart (symbol lambda-list &body docstring) ¶

A definer macro to hang the documentation of a restart on a
symbol.

“‘
(define-restart my-ignore-error ()
"Available when MY-ERROR is signalled, MY-IGNORE-ERROR unsafely continues.") “‘

Note that while there is a CL:RESTART class, there is no
corresponding source location or docstring like for CONDITIONs.

Package

40ants-doc/restart.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Macro: defsection (name (&key package package-symbol readtable-symbol section-class export title link-title-to discard-documentation-p external-docs external-links ignore-words) &body entries) ¶

Define a documentation section and maybe export referenced symbols.
A bit behind the scenes, a global variable with NAME is defined and
is bound to a [SECTION][class] object. By convention, section names
start with the character ‘@‘. See ‘40ANTS-DOC-FULL/DOC::@TUTORIAL‘ for an example.

ENTRIES consists of docstrings and references. Docstrings are
arbitrary strings in markdown format, references are defined in the
forms:

(symbol locative) or ((symbol1 symbol2 ... symboln) locative)

For example, ‘(FOO FUNCTION)‘ refers to the function ‘FOO‘, ‘(@BAR
SECTION)‘ says that ‘@BAR‘ is a subsection of this
one. ‘(BAZ (METHOD () (T T T)))‘ refers to the default method of the
three argument generic function ‘BAZ‘. ‘(FOO FUNCTION)‘ is
equivalent to ‘(FOO (FUNCTION))‘.

A locative in a reference can either be a symbol or it can be a list
whose CAR is a symbol. In either case, the symbol is the called the
type of the locative while the rest of the elements are the locative arguments. See 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/DOC::@LOCATIVE-TYPES for the list of locative types available out of the box.

The same symbol can occur multiple times in ENTRIES, typically
with different locatives, but this is not required.

The references are not looked up (see 40ANTS-DOC/REFERENCE:RESOLVE in the 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/DOC:@EXTENSION-API) until documentation is generated, so it is allowed to refer to things yet to be defined.

If you set :EXPORT to true, the referenced symbols and NAME are
candidates for exporting. A candidate symbol is exported if

- it is accessible in PACKAGE (it’s not ‘OTHER-PACKAGE:SOMETHING‘)
and

- there is a reference to it in the section being defined with a
locative whose type is approved by EXPORTABLE-LOCATIVE-TYPE-P.

The original idea with confounding documentation and exporting is to force documentation of all exported symbols. However when forking MGL-PAX into 40ANTS-DOC I’ve decided explicit imports make code more readable, and
changed the default for :EXPORT argument to NIL and added automatic
warnings to help find exported symbols not referenced from the documention.

If you decide to use ‘:EXPORT t‘ argument, note it will cause
[package variance](http://www.sbcl.org/manual/#Package-Variance)
error on SBCL. To prevent it, use UIOP:DEFINE-PACKAGE instead
of CL:DEFPACKAGE.

:TITLE is a non-marked-up string or NIL. If non-nil, it determines
the text of the heading in the generated output. :LINK-TITLE-TO is a
reference given as an
‘(OBJECT LOCATIVE)‘ pair or NIL, to which the heading will link when generating HTML. If not specified, the heading will link to its own
anchor.

When :DISCARD-DOCUMENTATION-P (defaults to *DISCARD-DOCUMENTATION-P*)
is true, ENTRIES will not be recorded to save memory.

EXTERNAL-DOCS argument can be a list of URLs leading to documentation
of other libraries. These libraries should be documented using 40ANTS-DOC
and you’ll be able to mention symbols from them and have automatic cross-links.

EXTERNAL-LINKS argument could contain an alist of ("name" . "URL") pairs. These pairs will be tranformed to [name]: URL text and appended to each markdown part of the defined chapter. This argument is useful when you are having more than one text part in the chapter and want to reference same
URL from all of them using short markdown links.

:IGNORE-WORDS allows to pass a list of strings which should not cause warnings. Usually these are uppercased words which are not symbols
in the current package, like SLIME, LISP, etc.

Macro: defsection-copy (name section) ¶

When you use [DOCS-BUILDER](https://40ants.com/docs-builder), you might want
to define a @readme variable to make README.md file with the same content as
your main documentation. This case might be popular for libraries having
a short documentation.

To define @readme as a copy of the main doc, export @readme symbol and do this in the code:

“‘lisp
(defparameter @readme (40ants-doc:copy-section @index))
“‘

Package

40ants-doc.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Macro: ignore-words-in-package (&rest symbols-or-strings) ¶

5.1.3 Ordinary functions

Function: get-docstring (object doc-type) ¶

Package

40ants-doc/docstring.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Function: locate (object locative &key errorp) ¶

Follow LOCATIVE from OBJECT and return the object it leads to or a 40ANTS-DOC/REFERENCE:REFERENCE if there is no first class object corresponding to the location. If ERRORP, then a LOCATE-ERROR condition is signaled when
the lookup fails.

Package

40ants-doc/locatives/base.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Function: locate-error (&rest format-and-args) ¶

Call this function to signal a LOCATE-ERROR condition from a
LOCATE-OBJECT generic-function. FORMAT-AND-ARGS contains a format string and args suitable for FORMAT from which the LOCATE-ERROR-MESSAGE is constructed. If FORMAT-AND-ARGS is NIL, then the message will be NIL too.

The object and the locative are not specified, they are added by
LOCATE when it resignals the condition.

Package

40ants-doc/locatives/base.

5.1.4 Generic functions

Generic Function: asdf-system-documentation-title (system) ¶

Returns a title for a section describing an ASDF system.

You might want to define a method using EQL specializer to make a title shorter or to remove a system name from it.

Package

40ants-doc/locatives/asdf-system.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Methods

Method: asdf-system-documentation-title ((system system)) ¶

Generic Function: canonical-reference (object) ¶

Return a 40ANTS-DOC/REFERENCE:REFERENCE that resolves to OBJECT.

Package

40ants-doc/reference-api.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Methods

Method: canonical-reference ((reference reference)) ¶

Source

file-type.lisp.

Generic Function: exportable-locative-type-p (locative-type) ¶

Return true if symbols in references with
LOCATIVE-TYPE are to be exported when they occur in a
DEFSECTION having ‘:EXPORT t‘ argument. The default method returns T, while the methods for PACKAGE, ASDF:SYSTEM and METHOD return NIL.

DEFSECTION calls this function to decide what symbols to export when
its EXPORT argument is true.

Package

40ants-doc.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Methods

Method: exportable-locative-type-p ((locative-type (eql method))) ¶

Method: exportable-locative-type-p ((locative-type (eql package))) ¶

Method: exportable-locative-type-p ((locative-type (eql asdf/system:system))) ¶

Method: exportable-locative-type-p (locative-type) ¶

Generic Function: find-source (object) ¶

Like SWANK:FIND-DEFINITION-FOR-THING, but this
one is a generic function to be extensible. In fact, the default
implementation simply defers to SWANK:FIND-DEFINITION-FOR-THING.
This function is called by 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/SWANK:LOCATE-DEFINITION-FOR-EMACS which lies behind the ‘M-.‘ extension (see 40ANTS-DOC-FULL/DOC:@EMACS-INTEGRATION).

If successful, the return value looks like this:

“‘lisp
(:location (:file "/home/mega/own/mgl/pax/test/test.lisp")
(:position 24) nil)
“‘

The NIL is the source snippet which is optional. Note that position
1 is the first character. If unsuccessful, the return values is
like:

“‘lisp
(:error "Unknown source location for SOMETHING")
“‘

Package

40ants-doc/source-api.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Methods

Method: find-source ((reference reference)) ¶

If REFERENCE can be resolved to a non-reference, call 40ANTS-DOC/SOURCE-API:FIND-SOURCE generic-function with it, else call [40ANTS-DOC/LOCATIVES/BASE:LOCATE-AND-FIND-SOURCE][generic-function] on the object, locative-type, locative-args slots of REFERENCE.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Generic Function: ignored-words (obj) ¶

Returns a list of words or symbols to ignore in OBJ’s documentation.

Package

40ants-doc/ignored-words.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Methods

Method: ignored-words ((obj package)) ¶

Generic Function: locate-and-find-source (object locative-type locative-args) ¶

Called by [40ANTS-DOC/SOURCE-API:FIND-SOURCE][(METHOD () (40ANTS-DOC/REFERENCE:REFERENCE))]
on 40ANTS-DOC/REFERENCE:REFERENCE objects, this
function has essentially the same purpose as 40ANTS-DOC/SOURCE-API:FIND-SOURCE generic-function but it has different arguments to allow specializing on LOCATIVE-TYPE.

Package

40ants-doc/locatives/base.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Methods

Method: locate-and-find-source (object locative-type locative-args) ¶

This default implementation simply calls 40ANTS-DOC/SOURCE-API:FIND-SOURCE with OBJECT which should cover the common case of a macro expanding to, for
instance, a defun but having its own locative type.

Generic Reader: locate-error-locative (condition) ¶

Methods

Reader Method: locate-error-object ((condition locate-error)) ¶

Source

file-type.lisp.

Target Slot

object.

Generic Function: locate-object (object locative-type locative-args) ¶

Return the object, to which OBJECT and the locative
refer. For example, if LOCATIVE-TYPE is the symbol PACKAGE, this
returns ‘(FIND-PACKAGE SYMBOL)‘. Signal a LOCATE-ERROR condition by
calling the LOCATE-ERROR function if the lookup fails. Signal other
errors if the types of the argument are bad, for instance
LOCATIVE-ARGS is not the empty list in the package example. If a 40ANTS-DOC/REFERENCE:REFERENCE is returned then it must be canonical in the sense that calling 40ANTS-DOC/REFERENCE-API:CANONICAL-REFERENCE on it will return the same reference. For extension only, don’t call this directly.

Package

40ants-doc/locatives/base.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Generic Function: locative-args (locative) ¶

The REST of LOCATIVE if it’s a list. If it’s a symbol then it’s ().

Package

40ants-doc/locatives/base.

Source

file-type.lisp.

Methods

Method: locative-args ((locative list)) ¶

Method: locative-args (locative) ¶

Generic Function: locative-type (locative) ¶

The first element of LOCATIVE if it’s a list. If it’s a symbol then it’s that symbol itself. Typically, methods of generic functions working with locatives take locative type and locative args as separate arguments to allow methods have eql specializers on the type symbol.
