# SmartDoc CLI

**SmartDoc CLI** is a command-line tool that automatically generates Markdown, HTML, and PDF API documentation for web frameworks like **FastAPI**, **Flask**, and **Django**.

---
## Installation

```bash
pip install smartdoc-cli
```
(For testing with Test PyPI)

`pip install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ smartdoc
`

---
## Usage
Run this command inside your project directory.

### Example command:
```bash
smartdoc generate \
  --app your_app.main \
  --framework fastapi \
  --output api_docs.md \
  --html \
  --pdf

```
### For FastAPI:
```bash
smartdoc generate --app your_project.main --framework fastapi --output docs.md --html --pdf
```

### For Flask:
```bash
smartdoc generate --app your_project.main --framework flask --output docs.md --html --pdf
```

### For Django:
```bash
smartdoc generate --app your_project.main --framework django --django-settings your_project.settings --output docs.md --html --pdf
```
---
## Troubleshooting SmartDoc
If running smartdoc generate causes import/module errors, follow these steps:

Common Error:
```bash
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'apps'
```
Fix:
```bash
# For Windows PowerShell
$env:PYTHONPATH="project"
smartdoc generate --app main --framework fastapi --output api_docs.md --html --pdf
```
Replace main with the filename (without .py) that runs your FastAPI app.

|  Checkpoint       | Description                                          |
| ----------------- |------------------------------------------------------|
| PYTHONPATH set?   | Point to folder where `apps/`, `main.py`, etc. exist |
| Module correct?   | Use `--app main` not full path like `project.main`   |
| Inside virtualenv? | Make sure `.venv` is activated                       |
| Imports relative? | Use `from apps...`, not `project.apps...`            |

### Tip
If you want to avoid setting PYTHONPATH every time, create a PowerShell script run_smartdoc.ps1:
```bash
$env:PYTHONPATH="project"
smartdoc generate --app main --framework fastapi --output api_docs.md --html --pdf
```
---
## smartdoc.json – Custom Configuration File
Place this in your root directory (same level as .venv, your_projects, etc.):

### For FastApi
```bash
{
  "app": "main",
  "framework": "fastapi",
  "output": "api_docs.md",
  "html": true,
  "pdf": true,
  "pythonpath": "project_folder"
}

```

### For Django
```bash
{
  "app": "project_name.urls",
  "framework": "django",
  "output": "api_docs.md",
  "html": true,
  "pdf": true,
  "pythonpath": "project_name",
  "django-settings": "project_name.settings"
}
```

### For Flask
```bash
{
  "app": "app",  // path to your Flask app file (e.g. app.py without .py)
  "framework": "flask",
  "output": "api_docs.md",
  "html": true,
  "pdf": true,
  "pythonpath": "."
}
```
### 1. Then use a custom script to run it:
Here’s a reusable Python script (run_smartdoc.py) to load from this config:

### `run_smartdoc.py`
```python
import os
import subprocess
import json

with open("smartdoc.json") as f:
    config = json.load(f)

os.environ["PYTHONPATH"] = config["pythonpath"]

cmd = [
    "smartdoc",
    "generate",
    "--app", config["app"],
    "--framework", config["framework"],
    "--output", config["output"]
]

if config.get("html"):
    cmd.append("--html")
if config.get("pdf"):
    cmd.append("--pdf")

subprocess.run(cmd)
```
Run it with:
`python run_smartdoc.py
`

### Note: Additional step for Django and Flask:
#### 1. Django
```text
In Python Script you need to set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable.
```
Update run_smartdoc.py like this:

```python
os.environ["DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE"] = config.get("django-settings", "")
```

#### 2. Flask
```text
In flask you only have to give the path of .py file which contains `Flask(__name__)` in the place of app.
```
---
### 2. Makefile (For Mac/Linux or Git Bash)
If you're on Linux/macOS or using Git Bash on Windows, you can use a Makefile.
### `Makefile`
```bash
PYTHONPATH=your-path

generate-docs:
	PYTHONPATH=$(PYTHONPATH) smartdoc generate \
		--app main \
		--framework fastapi \
		--output api_docs.md \
		--html \
		--pdf
```
Run it with:
`make generate-docs
`
#### NOTE: Make the necessary changes for Django and Flask
