Codedox for Haxe and Visual Studio Code

This is an extension for Visual Studio Code that helps developers document their Haxe code.

JSDoc style comments can be inserted including automatic generation of @param and @return tags. File headers can be inserted with customizable copyright and license comments, or you can choose from a variety of built-in license texts.

This extension is best used as a companion to vshaxe which provides Haxe support for Visual Studio Code.

Position cursor before a function declaration and type /** to insert a JSDoc-style comment. 3. Position cursor before a variable or class declaration and type /** to get an empty JSDoc-style comment, then press enter immediately to get a multiline comment.

Setup 'Wizard'

A basic configuration can be created using the simple setup 'wizard'. This is triggered when typing /* at the top of a file for the first time, or by running the setup command using F1 or Ctrl-Shift-P/Cmd-Shift-P and typing Codedox: Setup ....

The wizard will ask:

1. Where you want the configuration saved (user or workspace) 2. Which of the built-in license templates you want to use (if any) • GNU Affero General Public License • Apache License, Version 2.0 • GNU General Public License, Version 3.0 • MIT License • Mozilla Public License, Version 2.0 • Simple copyright 3. A company/author name to include in your copyright.

Advanced Configuration

Most Codedox settings are optional, and all required settings can be generated by the setup wizard. If you want use a built-in license template or simple copyright then just run the setup wizard and skip this section.

If you want to create a custom license/copyright template or want to change how the comments look, then you can cut and paste the following into your user or workspace settings file (.vscode/settings.json) and customize as needed. A list of built-in parameters that can be used in your custom templates is also listed below.
