Docco.coffee requires the following to run.
- Node.js
- Python
- CoffeeScript
- Pygments
- Docco
Step 1:
Download and install Node.js and Python 2.7. Python 3.2 might work but I haven’t yet tried it out.
Step 2:
Add the root and ‘node_modules’ directories for node.js and the root and “Script” directory for python 2.7 to your path environment variable.
C:\nodejs;%userprofile%\node_modules\.bin;C:\python27;C:\Python27\Scripts;
Step 3:
Open up a command prompt, start -> run -> type “cmd”.
Type npm install coffee-script
*You should see installation output on the screen*
Type npm install docco
*You should see installation output on the screen*
Step 4:
Download ez_setup
In command prompt, navigate to where you downloaded ez_setup.py.
Type in python ez_setup.py.
Step 5:
In command prompt type easy_install pygments to install Pygments.
Done.
Test
Download ‘underscore.js’ to your desktop.
Open up a command prompt and type in docco %userprofile%\desktop\underscore.js.
You should see two output files, “p” and “docs”.
The annotated source code is the html file in the docs folder.
Enjoy!
