Document API References - Manual Formatting Steps

This section outlines the steps that should be taken to format the generated Document API references from Horizon into a Gatsby-friendly format.

TIP: it's easiest to open just the editor folder in VS Code (or your favorite editor) so you can globally search and replace in only those files to avoid unintentional mistakes. (Or set the advanced search settings to exclude everything else).

Recommended pre-req: Install this extension in VS Code to make it easier to apply transformations across many files.

  1. Search and Replace again across files to change the auto-generated HLAPI docs headings from @hz/add-on-hz-hlapi-sdk –> to @express-document-sdk.

  2. The heading in the generated classes, enumerations, interfaces, namespaces, and type-aliases is not required. So, find and remove all occurrences of:

    [**@express-document-sdk**](../overview.md)**Docs**
    
    ---
  3. The API signatures generated in classes, enumerations, interfaces, namespaces, and type-aliases is indented. In these directories, find and replace all occurrences of newline + > + space with newline + • + space, ensuring no code example or closing tag is replaced.

  4. Find and replace all `mat2d` --> [`mat2d`](https://glmatrix.net/docs/module-mat2d.html)

  5. Fix any [iterator] links to remove the brackets from the link references to ensure they work. For instance: ArtboardList.md#%5Biterator%5D should be ArtboardList.md#iterator. To fix, use Search again with a regex string of .md#%5Biterator%5D and replace with .md#iterator.

  6. Find and remove all occurrences of TemplatizedProxyLiveObject. An example is of ReadOnlyItemList.md, where you should remove the following section:

    ## Extends
    
    -   `TemplatizedProxyLiveObject`<`HzApiInputType`\>
  7. Find and remove all occurrences of ProxyLiveObject. An example is of BaseNode.md, where you should remove the following section:

    ## Extends
    
    -   `ProxyLiveObject`
  8. Add a blank line after any InlineAlert in the Enums to render them properly. (This can be easily fixed in the hz repo)

  9. Ensure any lists are surrounded by one blank line so the linter in the PR job doesn't complain. See Context, Editor classes specifically such as the makeStroke method which has a list. (Note: you can check the PR validation job to see if you missed any). (This can be easily fixed in the hz repo)

  10. Find and replace \< with < for all .md files.

  11. Find and replace "\nExperimental\n" with "" with a regex option turned on in VS Code for all .md files. This will remove the additional Experimental text from the generated docs.
