phpDocumentor Markdown export
=============================

[](#phpdocumentor-markdown-export)

This is a script that can generate markdown (.md) documentation files from your DocBlock comments.

It is tailored for projects using PSR-0, PSR-1, PSR-2, PSR-4 and namespaces.

This is based on the work of Evert Pot in .

**Note!** This package has been superseded by

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install with composer:

```
composer require cvuorinen/phpdoc-md
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

First ensure that phpDocumentor 2 is installed somewhere, after, you must generate a file called `structure.xml`.

The easiest is to create a temporary directory, for example named `docs/`.

```
# phpdoc command
phpdoc  -d [project path] -t docs/ --template="xml"

# Next, run phpdocmd:
phpdocmd docs/structure.xml [outputdir]

```

Options
-------

[](#options)

```
--lt [template]
    This specifies the 'template' for links we're generating. By default
    this is "%c.md".

--title [title]
    This specifies the title for the generated Markdown document.

```
