Constant Summary collapse

ASCII_BRACES =

Constants (refined literal types where possible)

Returns:

  • ("{}")
"{}"
FULLWIDTH_BRACES =

Returns:

  • ("{}")
"{}"
RAKE_INTEGRATIONS =

Returns:

  • (::Hash[String, bool])
{}
RAKE_INTEGRATIONS_MUTEX =

Returns:

  • (::Mutex)
Mutex.new
KRAMDOWN_PROVIDER =

IMPORTANT: YARD expects :const to be a String. YARD concatenates with a String prefix (e.g., "::" + const), so a Symbol here will break provider resolution. Some static analyzers suggest making this a Symbol to match types, but that is incorrect for YARD. Do NOT change this to a Symbol.

Returns:

  • ({ lib: Symbol, const: String })
{lib: :kramdown, const: "KramdownGfmDocument"}
GLOB_PATTERN =

Returns:

  • (String)
"*.{md,MD,txt,TXT}"

.clean_docs_directoryObject

Clear generated docs output files to remove stale YARD artifacts. Only runs when YARD_FENCE_CLEAN_DOCS=true is set. This ensures that if a markdown file is deleted from the project, its corresponding HTML file won't remain in docs/, while preserving site metadata such as docs/CNAME.

.use_kramdown_gfm!Boolean

Register Kramdown GFM as the highest priority Markdown provider in YARD. Returns true if registration succeeded, false otherwise.

This method is intentionally not executed at file load to avoid circular require warnings when YARD is in the middle of loading itself. Call this from a file loaded via .yardopts (e.g. -e 'require "yard/fence/kramdown_gfm"; Yard::Fence.use_kramdown_gfm!').

#use_kramdown_gfm!Boolean

Register Kramdown GFM as the highest priority Markdown provider in YARD. Returns true if registration succeeded, false otherwise.

This method is intentionally not executed at file load to avoid circular require warnings when YARD is in the middle of loading itself. Call this from a file loaded via .yardopts (e.g. -e 'require "yard/fence/kramdown_gfm"; Yard::Fence.use_kramdown_gfm!').

Returns:

  • (Boolean)
