README.md
Here's how the node docs work.
1:1 relationship from lib/<module>.js
to doc/api/<module>.markdown
Each type of heading has a description block.
## module
Stability: 3 - Stable
description and examples.
### module.property
* Type
description of the property.
### module.someFunction(x, y, [z=100])
* `x` {String} the description of the string
* `y` {Boolean} Should I stay or should I go?
* `z` {Number} How many zebras to bring.
A description of the function.
### Event: 'blerg'
* Argument: SomeClass object.
Modules don't usually raise events on themselves. `cluster` is the
only exception.
## Class: SomeClass
description of the class.
### Class Method: SomeClass.classMethod(anArg)
* `anArg` {Object} Just an argument
* `field` {String} anArg can have this field.
* `field2` {Boolean} Another field. Default: `false`.
* Return: {Boolean} `true` if it worked.
Description of the method for humans.
### someClass.nextSibling()
* Return: {SomeClass object | null} The next someClass in line.
### someClass.someProperty
* String
The indication of what someProperty is.
### Event: 'grelb'
* `isBlerg` {Boolean}
This event is emitted on instances of SomeClass, not on the module itself.
- Modules have (description, Properties, Functions, Classes, Examples)
- Properties have (type, description)
- Functions have (list of arguments, description)
- Classes have (description, Properties, Methods, Events)
- Events have (list of arguments, description)
- Methods have (list of arguments, description)
- Properties have (type, description)
Stability ratings: 0-5
These can show up below any section heading, and apply to that section.
0 - Deprecated. This feature is known to be problematic, and changes are planned. Do not rely on it. Use of the feature may cause warnings. Backwards compatibility should not be expected.
1 - Experimental. This feature was introduced recently, and may change or be removed in future versions. Please try it out and provide feedback. If it addresses a use-case that is important to you, tell the node core team.
2 - Unstable. The API is in the process of settling, but has not yet had sufficient real-world testing to be considered stable. Backwards-compatibility will be maintained if reasonable.
3 - Stable. The API has proven satisfactory, but cleanup in the underlying code may cause minor changes. Backwards-compatibility is guaranteed.
4 - API Frozen. This API has been tested extensively in production and is unlikely to ever have to change.
5 - Locked. Unless serious bugs are found, this code will not ever change. Please do not suggest changes in this area, they will be refused.
