discord.js docs

A parser and wrapper for the discord.js docs.

Usage

Doc

const Doc = require('discord.js-docs')

Doc.fetch(sourceName[, options])

Fetches and parses the docs for the given project.
sourceName can be any of the predefined values (stable, main, commando, rpc, akairo, akairo-master and collection) or an URL which will return the raw generated docs (e.g https://raw.githubusercontent.com/discordjs/discord.js/docs/main.json ).
Once a documentation is fetched it will be cached. Use options.force to avoid this behavior.

Params:

name	type	required
sourceName	string	yes
options	object	no

Returns: Promise<Doc?>

const doc = await Doc.fetch('main')
const doc = await Doc.fetch('akairo-master', { force: true })
const doc = await Doc.fetch(
  'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/discordjs/discord-rpc/docs/master.json',
  { force: true }
)

Doc#get(parent[, child1[ ...[, childN]]])

Gets documention for one element. Multiple properties/methods can be chained. Params:

name	type	required
parent	string	yes
...children	string	no

Returns: DocElement?

doc.get('message')
doc.get('message', 'guild')
doc.get('message', 'guild', 'members')

Doc#search(query)

Searches the documentation using fuzzy search for the given query and returns top 10 hits.

Params:

name	type	required
query	string	yes

Returns: Array<DocElement>?

Doc#resolveEmbed(query)

Tries to resolve the query into a DocElement using Doc#get. The search terms are expected to be separated by # or ., example: message#pin. If an element cannot be resolved, falls back to Doc#search. The result is then formatted into an object representing a Discord embed which can be sent directly to a Discord channel.

Params:

name	type	required
query	string	yes

Returns: object?
