TaskJuggler::SyntaxReference

This class can traverse the syntax rules of the ProjectFileParser and extract all documented keywords including their arguments and relations. All this work in done in the contructor. The documentation can then be generated for all found keyword or just a single one. Currently plain text output as well as HTML files are supported.

Public Class Methods

new(manual = nil) click to toggle source

The constructor is the most important function of this class. It creates a parser object and then traverses all rules and extracts the documented patterns. In a second pass the extracted KeywordDocumentation objects are then cross referenced to capture their relationships. manual is an optional reference to the UserManual object that uses this SyntaxReference.

tableOfContents(toc, sectionPrefix) click to toggle source

Generate entries for a TableOfContents for each of the keywords. The entries are appended to the TableOfContents toc. sectionPrefix is the prefix that is used for the chapter numbers. In case we have 20 keywords and sectionPrefix is ‘A’, the keywords will be enumerated ‘A.1’ to ‘A.20’.

attributes(token, scenarioSpecific) click to toggle source

For the rule referenced by token all patterns are collected that define the terminal token of each first token of each pattern of the specified rule. The patterns are returned as a hash. For each pattern the hashed boolean value specifies whether the attribute is scenario specific or not.
