Re: [basex-talk] Extracting function signatures from documentation

Please take a look at xqDoc for XQuery that is like JavaDoc for Java.

Here is a polymer based web app that runs under eXist-db. The build.gradle has a task generateXQDocs

Hi,

I am doing some tooling for XQuery and need to extract function signatures from text, like from the BaseX module library documentation. But with my regex skills I just hit the wall. Next step would be to write some complex program, that does the parsing, maybe in combination with regexes, but before I start into that, I wanted to ask, whether the work has already been done.

Is there a marked up version of the BaseX function docs? Or, even better (since I could apply it to other docs, then) does anyone know of a regular expression or an XQuery routine, that analyzes function signatures?

Thanks a lot!
