# @discordjs/api-extractor-model
|
|
|
|
Use this library to read and write \*.api.json files as defined by the [API Extractor](https://api-extractor.com/) tool.
|
|
These files are used to generate a documentation website for your TypeScript package. The files store the
|
|
API signatures and doc comments that were extracted from your package.
|
|
|
|
API documentation for this package: https://rushstack.io/pages/api/api-extractor-model/
|
|
|
|
## Example Usage
|
|
|
|
The following code sample shows how to load `example.api.json`, which would be generated by API Extractor
|
|
when it analyzes a hypothetical NPM package called `example`:
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
import { ApiModel, ApiPackage } from '@discordjs/api-extractor-model';
|
|
|
|
const apiModel: ApiModel = new ApiModel();
|
|
const apiPackage: ApiPackage = apiModel.loadPackage('example.api.json');
|
|
|
|
for (const member of apiPackage.members) {
|
|
console.log(member.displayName);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `ApiModel` is acts as a container for various packages that are loaded and operated on as a group.
|
|
For example, a documentation tool may need to resolve `@link` references across different packages.
|
|
In this case we would load the various packages into the `ApiModel`, and then use
|
|
the `ApiModel.resolveDeclarationReference()` to resolve the `@link` targets.
|
|
|
|
The data structure forms a tree of various classes that start with the `Api` prefix. The nesting hierarchy
|
|
might look like this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
- ApiModel
|
|
- ApiPackage
|
|
- ApiEntryPoint
|
|
- ApiClass
|
|
- ApiMethod
|
|
- ApiProperty
|
|
- ApiEnum
|
|
- ApiEnumMember
|
|
- ApiInterface
|
|
- ApiMethodSignature
|
|
- ApiPropertySignature
|
|
- ApiNamespace
|
|
- (ApiClass, ApiEnum, ApiInterface, ...)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can use the `ApiItem.members` property to traverse this tree.
|
|
|
|
Note that the non-abstract classes (e.g. `ApiClass`, `ApiEnum`, `ApiInterface`, etc.) use
|
|
TypeScript "mixin" functions (e.g. `ApiDeclaredItem`, `ApiItemContainerMixin`, etc.) to add various
|
|
features that cannot be represented as a normal inheritance chain (since TypeScript does not allow a child class
|
|
to extend more than one base class). The "mixin" is a TypeScript merged declaration with three components:
|
|
the function that generates a subclass, an interface that describes the members of the subclass, and
|
|
a namespace containing static members of the class.
|
|

> For a complete project that uses these APIs to generate an API reference web site,
|
|
> see the [@microsoft/api-documenter](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@microsoft/api-documenter) source code.
