|
|
|
*INSTRUCTIONS*
|
|
|
|
1. Use this file as a template to document API.
|
|
2. Change the file name to the name of the header file that represents documented API.
|
|
3. Include respective files with descriptions from the API folder using ``..include::``
|
|
|
|
* README.rst
|
|
* example.rst
|
|
|
|
4. Optionally provide description right in this file.
|
|
5. Once done, remove all instructions like this one and any superfluous headers.

Overview
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
*INSTRUCTIONS*
|
|
|
|
1. Provide overview where and how this API may be used.
|
|
2. Where applicable include code snippets to illustrate functionality of particular functions.
|
|
3. To distinguish between sections, use the following `heading levels <http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/rest.html#sections>`_:
|
|
|
|
* ``#`` with overline, for parts
|
|
* ``*`` with overline, for chapters
|
|
* ``=``, for sections
|
|
* ``-``, for subsections
|
|
* ``^``, for subsubsections
|
|
* ``"``, for paragraphs
|

Application Example
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
*INSTRUCTIONS*
|
|
|
|
1. Prepare one or more practical examples to demonstrate functionality of this API.
|
|
2. Each example should follow pattern of projects located in ``esp-idf/examples/`` folder.
|
|
3. Place example in this folder complete with ``README.md`` file.
|
|
4. Provide overview of demonstrated functionality in ``README.md``.
|
|
5. With good overview reader should be able to understand what example does without opening the source code.
|
|
6. Depending on complexity of example, break down description of code into parts and provide overview of functionality of each part.
|
|
7. Include flow diagram and screenshots of application output if applicable.
|
|
8. Finally add in this section synopsis of each example together with link to respective folder in ``esp-idf/examples/``.
|
|

API Reference
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
*INSTRUCTIONS*
|
|
|
|
1. Specify the names of header files used to generate this reference. Each name should be linked to the source on `espressif/esp-idf <https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf>`_ repository.
|
|
2. Provide list of API members divided into sections.
|
|
3. Use corresponding ``.. doxygen..`` directives, so member documentation is auto updated.
|
|
|
|
* Data Structures -``.. doxygenstruct::`` together with ``:members:``
|
|
* Macros - ``.. doxygendefine::``
|
|
* Type Definitions - ``.. doxygentypedef::``
|
|
* Enumerations - ``.. doxygenenum::``
|
|
* Functions - ``.. doxygenfunction::``
|
|
|
|
See `Breathe documentation <https://breathe.readthedocs.io/en/latest/directives.html>`_ for additional information.
|
|
|
|
4. Once done remove superfluous headers.
|
|
5. When changes are committed and documentation is build, check how this section rendered. :doc:`Correct annotations <../documenting-code>` in respective header files, if required.
