docfy init

Onboarding mit einem Befehl: verbindet DocfyModule, dekoriert Controller, registriert bei Bedarf das Webpack-Plugin, fügt Skripte zu package.json hinzu und generiert die Doku-Dateien.

Verwendung

bash
npx nestjs-docfy init [options]

Der schnellste Weg zu einem funktionierenden Setup — bündelt, was generate --link-controller --register-plugin bereits tun, plus den einen neuen Schritt: DocfyModule.forRoot() in dein Root-Modul einbinden.

Was es macht

  1. Locates each app's bootstrap file and the class passed to NestFactory.create(...), then wires DocfyModule.forRoot() into that root module's @Module({ imports: [...] }). Static analysis only — never executes your code. If it can't locate the bootstrap file or the module with certainty, it warns and skips that app instead of guessing.
  2. Runs the same steps as generate --link-controller --register-plugin: decorates every controller with @WithDocs(), registers the webpack CLI plugin if needed, and generates the companion *.controller.docs.ts files.
  3. Adds docs:generate/docs:preview scripts to the root package.json, without overwriting any script already defined under those names.

Every step is independently idempotent, so running init again is always safe — useful after adding a new controller or a second app to the project. See CLI: generate for what each bundled step does on its own.
