+# Dokka community plugins
+
+On this page you can find `Dokka` plugins which are supported by both `Dokka` maintainers and community members.
+
+If you want to add your plugin to this list, get in touch with maintainers via [Slack](../community/slack.md)
+or `GitHub`.
+
+If you want to learn how to develop plugins for `Dokka`, see
+[Plugin development](../developer_guide/plugin-development/introduction.md) section.
+
+## Output Formats
+
+### Javadoc (Alpha)
+
+Javadoc plugin adds a `Javadoc` output format that looks like Java's `Javadoc`, but it's for the most part
+a lookalike, so you may experience problems if you try to use it with a tool that expects native
+`Javadoc` documentation generated by `Java`.
+
+`Javadoc` plugin does not support multiplatform projects and does not have a multi-module task.
+
+`Javadoc` plugin is shipped with `Dokka`, so you can start using it right away with one of the following tasks:
+
+* `dokkaJavadoc` - builds `Javadoc` documentation for single-module projects or for a specific module.
+* `dokkaJavadocCollector` - collects generated `Javadoc` documentation from submodules and assembles it together.
+
+`Javadoc` plugin has its own signature provider that essentially translates `Kotlin` signatures to `Java` ones.
+
+**This plugin is at its early stages**, so you may experience issues and encounter bugs. Feel free to
+[report](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/issues/new/choose) any errors you see.
+
+[Plugin source code on GitHub](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/tree/master/plugins/javadoc)
+
+### GFM (Alpha)
+
+`GFM` plugins adds the ability to generate documentation in `GitHub flavoured Markdown` format. Supports both
+multimodule and multiplatform projects, and is shipped together with `Dokka`, so you can start using it
+right away with one of the following tasks:
+
+* `dokkaGfm` - generate documentation for a non multi-module project or one specific module.
+* `dokkaGfmMultiModule` - generate documentation for a multi-module project, assemble it together and
+ generate navigation page/menu for all the modules.
+
+Example:
+
+___
+
+//[dokka-debug-kts](#gfm)/[org.jetbrains.dokka.test](#gfm)/[MyClass](#gfm)
+
+#### MyClass
+
+[jvm]
+class [MyClass](#gfm)
+
+KDoc that describes this class
+
+##### Constructors
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| [MyClass](#gfm) | [jvm]<br>fun [MyClass](#gfm)() |
+
+##### Functions
+
+| Name | Summary |
+|------------------|---|
+| [function](#gfm) | [jvm]<br>fun [function](#gfm)(): [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)<br>KDoc comment on top of this function |
+
+##### Properties
+
+| Name | Summary |
+|---|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| [property](#gfm) | [jvm]<br>val [property](#gfm): [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)<br>KDoc comment for a property |
+

+**This plugin is at its early stages**, so you may experience issues and encounter bugs. Feel free to
+[report](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/issues/new/choose) any errors you see.
+
+[Plugin source code on GitHub](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/tree/master/plugins/gfm)
+
+### Jekyll (Alpha)
+
+`Jekyll` plugins adds the ability to generate documentation in `Jekyll flavoured Markdown` format. Supports both
+multi-module and multiplatform projects, and is shipped together with `Dokka`, so you can start using it
+right away with one of the following tasks:
+
+* `dokkaJekyll` - generate documentation for a non multi-module project or one specific module.
+* `dokkaJekyllMultiModule` - generate documentation for a multi-module project, assemble it together and
+ generate navigation page/menu for all the modules.
+
+**This plugin is at its early stages**, so you may experience issues and encounter bugs. Feel free to
+[report](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/issues/new/choose) any errors you see.

+
+## Extensions
+
+### Mathjax
+
+[MathJax](https://docs.mathjax.org/) allows you to include mathematics in your web pages. `MathJax` plugin
+adds the ability to render mathematics from source code comments.
+
+If `MathJax` plugin encounters `@usesMathJax` `KDoc` tag, it adds `MathJax.js` (ver. 2) with `config=TeX-AMS_SVG`
+to generated `HTML` pages.
+
+Usage example:
+```kotlin
+/**
+ * Some math \(\sqrt{3x-1}+(1+x)^2\)
+ *
+ * @usesMathJax
+ */
+class Foo {}
+```
+
+Which results in:
+
+![Mathjax demo](../images/mathjax_demo.png){ width="400" }
+
+[Plugin source code on GitHub](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/tree/master/plugins/mathjax)
+
+### Mermaid
+
+[Mermaid JS](https://mermaid-js.github.io/mermaid/#/) lets you create diagrams and visualizations using text and code.
+`Mermaid` plugin allows rendering such diagrams and visualizations found in source code documentation.
+
+Usage example:
+```kotlin
+/**
+ * See the graph for more details:
+ * \```mermaid
+ * graph LR
+ * A[Christmas] -->|Get money| B(Go shopping)
+ * B --> C{Let me think}
+ * C -->|One| D[Laptop]
+ * C -->|Two| E[iPhone]
+ * C -->|Three| F[fa:fa-car Car]
+ * \```
+ */
+class CompositeSubscription
+```
+
+Which results in:
+
+![Mermaid demo](../images/mermaid_demo.png){ width="700" }
+
+For more information and examples, see
+[Html Mermaid Dokka plugin](https://github.com/glureau/dokka-mermaid) repository on GitHub.
+
+### Kotlin as Java
+
+With `Kotlin as Java` plugin applied, all `Kotlin` signatures will be rendered as `Java` signatures.
+
+For instance, `fun foo(bar: Bar): Baz` will be rendered as `public final Baz foo(Bar bar)`.
+
+`Kotlin as Java` plugin is published to maven central as a
+[separate artifact](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.dokka/kotlin-as-java-plugin):
+`org.jetbrains.dokka:kotlin-as-java-plugin:1.7.20`.

+# Architecture overview
+
+Normally, you would think that a tool like `Dokka` simply parses some programming language sources and generates
+`HTML` pages for whatever it sees along the way, with little to no abstractions. That would be the simplest and
+shortest way to implement an API documentation engine.
+
+However, it was clear that `Dokka` may need to generate documentation from various sources (not only `Kotlin`), that users
+might request additional output formats (like `Markdown`), that users might need additional features like supporting
+custom `KDoc` tags or rendering `mermaid.js` diagrams - all these things would require changing a lot of code inside
+`Dokka` itself if all solutions were hardcoded.
+
+For this reason, `Dokka` was built from the ground up to be easily extensible and customizable by adding several layers
+of abstractions to the data model, and by providing pluggable extension points, giving you the ability to introduce
+selective changes on a single level.
+
+## Overview of data model
+
+Generating API documentation begins with `Input` source files (`.kts`, `.java`, etc) and ends with some `Output` files
+(`.html`/`.md` pages, etc). However, to allow for extensibility and customization, several input and output independent
+abstractions have been added to the data model.
+
+Below you can find the general pipeline of processing data gathered from sources and the explanation for each stage.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+ Input --> Documentables --> Pages --> Output
+```
+
+* `Input` - generalization of sources, by default `Kotlin`/`Java` sources, but could be virtually anything
+* `Documentables` - unified data model that represents _any_ parsed sources as a tree, independent of the source
+ language. Examples of a `Documentable`: class, function, package, property, etc
+* `Pages` - universal model that represents output pages (e.g a function/property page) and the content it's composed of
+ (lists, text, code blocks) that the users needs to see. Not to be confused with `.html` pages. Goes hand in hand
+ with so-called `Content` model.
+* `Output` - specific output format like `HTML`/`Markdown`/`Javadoc`/etc. This is a mapping of pages/content model to
+ some human-readable and visual representation. For instance:
+ * `PageNode` is mapped as
+ * `.html` file for `HTML` format
+ * `.md` file for `Markdown` format
+ * `ContentList` is mapped as
+ * `<li>` / `<ul>` for `HTML` format
+ * `1.` / `*` for `Markdown` format
+ * `ContentCodeBlock` is mapped as
+ * `<code>` or `<pre>` with some CSS styles in `HTML` format
+ * Text wrapped in triple backticks for `Markdown` format
+
+
+You, as a `Dokka` developer or a plugin writer, can use extension points to introduce selective changes to the
+model on one particular level without touching everything else.
+
+For instance, if you wanted to make some annotation/function/class invisible in the final documentation, you would only
+need to modify the `Documentables` model by filtering undesirable members out. If you wanted to display all overloaded
+methods on the same page instead of on separate ones, you would only need to modify the `Page` model by merging multiple
+pages into one, and so on.
+
+For a deeper dive into Dokka's model with more examples and details,
+see sections about [Documentables](data_model/documentables.md) and [Page/Content](data_model/page_content.md)
+
+For an overview of existing extension points that let you transform Dokka's models, see
+[Core extension points](extension_points/core_extensions.md) and [Base extensions](extension_points/base_extensions.md).
+
+## Overview of extension points
+
+An extension point usually represents some pluggable interface that performs an action during one of the stages of
+generating documentation. An extension is therefore an implementation of that interface which is extending the
+extension point.
+
+You can create extension points, provide your own implementations (extensions) and configure them. All of
+this is possible with Dokka's plugin/extension point API.
+
+Here's a sneak peek of the DSL:
+
+```kotlin
+class MyPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ // create an extension point for other developers
+ val signatureProvider by extensionPoint<SignatureProvider>()
+
+ // provide a default implementation
+ val defaultSignatureProvider by extending {
+ signatureProvider with KotlinSignatureProvider()
+ }
+
+ // register our own extension in base plugin and override its default
+ val dokkaBasePlugin by lazy { plugin<DokkaBase>() }
+ val multimoduleLocationProvider by extending {
+ (dokkaBasePlugin.locationProviderFactory
+ providing MultimoduleLocationProvider::Factory
+ override dokkaBasePlugin.locationProvider)
+ }
+}
+
+// use a registered extention, pretty much dependency injection
+class MyExtension(val context: DokkaContext) {
+
+ val signatureProvider: SignatureProvider = context.plugin<MyPlugin>().querySingle { signatureProvider }
+
+ fun doSomething() {
+ signatureProvider.signature(..)
+ }
+}
+
+interface SignatureProvider {
+ fun signature(documentable: Documentable): List<ContentNode>
+}
+
+class KotlinSignatureProvider : SignatureProvider {
+ override fun signature(documentable: Documentable): List<ContentNode> = listOf()
+}
+```
+
+For a deeper dive into extensions and extension points with more examples and details, see
+[Introduction to Extensions](extension_points/introduction.md).
+
+For an overview of existing extension points, see [Core extension points](extension_points/core_extensions.md) and
+[Base extensions](extension_points/base_extensions.md).
+
+## Historical context
+
+This is a second iteration of Dokka that was built from scratch.
+
+If you want to learn more about why Dokka has been designed this way, watch this great talk by Paweł Marks:
+[New Dokka - Designed for Fearless Creativity](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvFoTRhqaKg). The general principles
+and general architecture are the same, although it may be outdated in some areas, so please double-check.

+# Documentables Model
+
+Documentables represent data that is parsed from sources. Think of this data model as of something that could be
+seen or produced by a compiler frontend, it's not far off from the truth.
+
+By default, documentables are parsed from `Descriptor` (for `Kotlin`)
+and [Psi](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intellij/psi.html)
+(for `Java`) models. Code-wise, you can have a look at following classes:
+
+* `DefaultDescriptorToDocumentableTranslator` - responsible for `Kotlin` -> `Documentable` mapping
+* `DefaultPsiToDocumentableTranslator` - responsible for `Java` -> `Documentable` mapping
+
+Upon creation, it's a collection of trees, each with `DModule` as root.
+
+Take some arbitrary `Kotlin` source code that is located within the same module:
+
+```kotlin
+// Package 1
+class Clazz(val property: String) {
+ fun function(parameter: String) {}
+}
+
+fun topLevelFunction() {}
+
+// Package 2
+enum class Enum { }
+
+val topLevelProperty: String
+```
+
+This would be represented roughly as the following `Documentable` tree:
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+ DModule --> firstPackage[DPackage]
+ firstPackage --> DClass
+ firstPackage --> toplevelfunction[DFunction]
+ DClass --> DProperty
+ DClass --> DFunction
+ DFunction --> DParameter
+ DModule --> secondPackage[DPackage]
+ secondPackage --> DEnum
+ secondPackage --> secondPackageProperty[DProperty]
+```
+
+At later stages of transformation, all trees are folded into one (by `DocumentableMerger`).
+
+## Documentable
+
+The main building block of documentables model is `Documentable` class. It's the base class for all more specific types
+that represent elements of parsed sources with mostly self-explanatory names (`DFunction`, `DPackage`, `DProperty`, etc)
+.
+`DClasslike` is the base class for class-like documentables such as `DClass`, `DEnum`, `DAnnotation`, etc.
+
+The contents of each documentable normally represent what you would see in source code. For instance, if you open
+`DClass`, you should find that it contains references to functions, properties, companion object, constructors and so
+on.
+`DEnum` should have references to enum entries, and `DPackage` can have references to both classlikes and top-level
+functions and properties (`Kotlin`-specific).
+
+Here's an example of a documentable:
+
+```kotlin
+data class DClass(
+ val dri: DRI,
+ val name: String,
+ val constructors: List<DFunction>,
+ val functions: List<DFunction>,
+ val properties: List<DProperty>,
+ val classlikes: List<DClasslike>,
+ val sources: SourceSetDependent<DocumentableSource>,
+ val visibility: SourceSetDependent<Visibility>,
+ val companion: DObject?,
+ val generics: List<DTypeParameter>,
+ val supertypes: SourceSetDependent<List<TypeConstructorWithKind>>,
+ val documentation: SourceSetDependent<DocumentationNode>,
+ val expectPresentInSet: DokkaSourceSet?,
+ val modifier: SourceSetDependent<Modifier>,
+ val sourceSets: Set<DokkaSourceSet>,
+ val isExpectActual: Boolean,
+ val extra: PropertyContainer<DClass> = PropertyContainer.empty()
+) : DClasslike(), WithAbstraction, WithCompanion, WithConstructors,
+ WithGenerics, WithSupertypes, WithExtraProperties<DClass>
+```
+
+___
+
+There are three non-documentable classes that important for this model:
+
+* `DRI`
+* `SourceSetDependent`
+* `ExtraProperty`.
+
+### DRI
+
+`DRI` stans for _Dokka Resource Identifier_ - a unique value that identifies a specific `Documentable`.
+All references and relations between documentables (other than direct ownership) are described using `DRI`.
+
+For example, `DFunction` with a parameter of type `Foo` has only `Foo`'s `DRI`, not the actual reference
+to `Foo`'s `Documentable` object.
+
+#### Example
+
+For an example of how a `DRI` can look like, let's take the `limitedParallelism` function from `kotlinx.coroutines`:
+
+```kotlin
+package kotlinx.coroutines
+
+import ...
+
+public abstract class MainCoroutineDispatcher : CoroutineDispatcher() {
+
+ override fun limitedParallelism(parallelism: Int): CoroutineDispatcher {
+ ...
+ }
+}
+```
+
+If we were to re-create the DRI of this function in code, it would look something like this:
+
+```kotlin
+DRI(
+ packageName = "kotlinx.coroutines",
+ classNames = "MainCoroutineDispatcher",
+ callable = Callable(
+ name = "limitedParallelism",
+ receiver = null,
+ params = listOf(
+ TypeConstructor(
+ fullyQualifiedName = "kotlin.Int",
+ params = emptyList()
+ )
+ )
+ ),
+ target = PointingToDeclaration,
+ extra = null
+)
+```
+
+If you format it as `String`, it would look like this:
+
+```
+kotlinx.coroutines/MainCoroutineDispatcher/limitedParallelism/#kotlin.Int/PointingToDeclaration/
+```
+
+### SourceSetDependent
+
+`SourceSetDependent` helps handling multiplatform data by associating platform-specific data (declared with either
+`expect` or `actual` modifier) with particular
+[source sets](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-discover-project.html#source-sets).
+
+This comes in handy if `expect`/`actual` declarations differ. For instance, the default value for `actual` might differ
+from that declared in `expect`, or code comments written for `expect` might be different from what's written
+for `actual`.
+
+Under the hood, it's a `typealias` to a `Map`:
+
+```kotlin
+typealias SourceSetDependent<T> = Map<DokkaSourceSet, T>
+```
+
+### ExtraProperty
+
+`ExtraProperty` is used to store any additional information that falls outside of the regular model. It is highly
+recommended to use extras to provide any additional information when creating custom Dokka plugins.
+
+This element is a bit more complex, so you can read more about how to use it
+[in a separate section](extra.md).
+
+___
+
+## Documentation model
+
+Documentation model is used alongside Documentables to store data obtained by parsing
+code comments (such as `KDoc`/`Javadoc`).
+
+### DocTag
+
+`DocTag` describes a specific documentation syntax element.
+
+It's universal across source languages. For instance, DocTag `B` is the same for `**bold**` in `Kotlin` and
+`<b>bold</b>` in `Java`.
+
+However, some `DocTag` elements are specific to a certain language, there are many such examples for `Java`
+because it allows HTML tags inside `Javadoc` comments, some of which are simply not possible to reproduce with `Markdown`.
+
+`DocTag` elements can be deeply nested with other `DocTag` children elements.
+
+Examples:
+
+```kotlin
+data class H1(
+ override val children: List<DocTag> = emptyList(),
+ override val params: Map<String, String> = emptyMap()
+) : DocTag()
+
+data class H2(
+ override val children: List<DocTag> = emptyList(),
+ override val params: Map<String, String> = emptyMap()
+) : DocTag()
+
+data class Strikethrough(
+ override val children: List<DocTag> = emptyList(),
+ override val params: Map<String, String> = emptyMap()
+) : DocTag()
+
+data class Strong(
+ override val children: List<DocTag> = emptyList(),
+ override val params: Map<String, String> = emptyMap()
+) : DocTag()
+
+data class CodeBlock(
+ override val children: List<DocTag> = emptyList(),
+ override val params: Map<String, String> = emptyMap()
+) : Code()
+
+```
+
+### TagWrapper
+
+`TagWrapper` describes the whole comment description or a specific comment tag.
+For example: `@see` / `@author` / `@return`.
+
+Since each such section may contain formatted text inside of it, each `TagWrapper` has `DocTag` children.
+
+```kotlin
+/**
+ * @author **Ben Affleck*
+ * @return nothing, except _sometimes_ it may throw an [Error]
+ */
+fun foo() {}
+```
+
+### DocumentationNode
+
+`DocumentationNode` acts as a container for multiple `TagWrapper` elements for a specific `Documentable`, usually
+used like this:
+
+```kotlin
+data class DFunction(
+ ...
+ val documentation: SourceSetDependent<DocumentationNode>,
+ ...
+)
+```

+# Extra
+
+## Introduction
+
+`ExtraProperty` classes are used both by [Documentable](documentables.md) and [Content](page_content.md#content-model)
+models.
+
+Source code for `ExtraProperty`:
+
+```kotlin
+interface ExtraProperty<in C : Any> {
+ interface Key<in C : Any, T : Any> {
+ fun mergeStrategyFor(left: T, right: T): MergeStrategy<C> = MergeStrategy.Fail {
+ throw NotImplementedError("Property merging for $this is not implemented")
+ }
+ }
+
+ val key: Key<C, *>
+}
+```
+
+To declare a new extra, you need to implement `ExtraProperty` interface. It is advised to use following pattern
+when declaring new extras:
+
+```kotlin
+data class CustomExtra(
+ [any data relevant to your extra],
+ [any data relevant to your extra]
+): ExtraProperty<Documentable> {
+ override val key: CustomExtra.Key<Documentable, *> = CustomExtra
+ companion object : CustomExtra.Key<Documentable, CustomExtra>
+}
+```
+
+Merge strategy (`mergeStrategyFor` method) for extras is invoked during
+[merging](../extension_points/core_extensions.md#documentablemerger) if documentables from different
+[source sets](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-discover-project.html#source-sets) each
+have their own `Extra` of the same type.
+
+## PropertyContainer
+
+All extras for `ContentNode` and `Documentable` classes are stored in `PropertyContainer<C : Any>` class instances.
+
+```kotlin
+data class DFunction(
+ ...
+ override val extra: PropertyContainer<DFunction> = PropertyContainer.empty()
+ ...
+) : WithExtraProperties<DFunction>
+```
+
+`PropertyContainer` has a number of convenient functions for handling extras in a collection-like manner.
+
+The `C` generic class parameter limits the type of properties that can be stored in the container - it must
+match generic `C` class parameter from `ExtraProperty` interface. This allows creating extra properties
+which can only be stored in a specific `Documentable`.
+
+## Usage example
+
+In following example we will create a `DFunction`-only property, store it and then retrieve its value:
+
+```kotlin
+data class CustomExtra(val customExtraValue: String) : ExtraProperty<DFunction> {
+ override val key: ExtraProperty.Key<Documentable, *> = CustomExtra
+ companion object: ExtraProperty.Key<Documentable, CustomExtra>
+}
+
+fun DFunction.withCustomExtraProperty(data: String): DFunction {
+ return this.copy(
+ extra = extra + CustomExtra(data)
+ )
+}
+
+fun DFunction.getCustomExtraPropertyValue(): String? {
+ return this.extra[CustomExtra]?.customExtraValue
+}
+```
+
+___
+
+You can also use extras as markers, without storing any data in them:
+
+```kotlin
+
+object MarkerExtra : ExtraProperty<Any>, ExtraProperty.Key<Any, MarkerExtra> {
+ override val key: ExtraProperty.Key<Any, *> = this
+}
+
+fun Documentable.markIfFunction(): Documentable {
+ return when(this) {
+ is DFunction -> this.copy(extra = extra + MarkerExtra)
+ else -> this
+ }
+}
+
+fun WithExtraProperties<Documentable>.isMarked(): Boolean {
+ return this.extra[MarkerExtra] != null
+}
+```

+# Page / Content Model
+
+Even though `Page` and `Content` models reside on the same level (under `Page`), it's easier to view it as two different
+models altogether, even though `Content` is only used in conjunction with and inside `Page` model.
+
+## Page
+
+Page model represents the structure of documentation pages to be generated. During rendering, each page
+is processed separately, so one page corresponds to exactly one output file.
+
+Page model is independent of the final output format, in other words it's universal. Which extension the pages
+should be created as (`.html`, `.md`, etc) and how is up to the `Renderer`.
+
+Subclasses of `PageNode` represent different kinds of rendered pages, such as `ModulePage`, `PackagePage`,
+`ClasslikePage`, `MemberPage` (properties, functions), etc.
+
+The Page Model is a tree structure, with `RootPageNode` at the root.
+
+Here's an example of how an arbitrary `Page` tree might look like for a module with 3 packages, one of which contains
+a top level function, top level property and a class, inside which there's a function and a property:
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+ RootPageNode --> firstPackage[PackagePageNode]
+ RootPageNode --> secondPackage[PackagePageNode]
+ RootPageNode --> thirdPackage[PackagePageNode]
+ firstPackage --> firstPackageFirstMember[MemberPageNode - Function]
+ firstPackage --> firstPackageSecondMember[MemberPageNode - Property]
+ firstPackage ---> firstPackageClasslike[ClasslikePageNode - Class]
+ firstPackageClasslike --> firstPackageClasslikeFirstMember[MemberPageNode - Function]
+ firstPackageClasslike --> firstPackageClasslikeSecondMember[MemberPageNode - Property]
+ secondPackage --> etcOne[...]
+ thirdPackage --> etcTwo[...]
+```
+
+Almost all pages are derivatives of `ContentPage` - it's the type of `Page` that has `Content` on it.
+
+## Content Model
+
+Content model describes how the actual `Page` content is presented. The important thing to understand is that it's
+also output-format independent and is universal.
+
+Content model is essentially a set of building blocks that you can put together to represent some content.
+Have a look at subclasses of `ContentNode`: `ContentText`, `ContentList`, `ContentTable`, `ContentCodeBlock`,
+`ContentHeader` and so on. You can group content together with `ContentGroup` - for instance,
+to wrap all children with some style.
+
+```kotlin
+// real example of composing content using `DocumentableContentBuilder` DSL
+orderedList {
+ item {
+ text("This list contains a nested table:")
+ table {
+ header {
+ text("Col1")
+ text("Col2")
+ }
+ row {
+ text("Text1")
+ text("Text2")
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ item {
+ group(styles = setOf(TextStyle.Bold)) {
+ text("This is bald")
+ text("This is also bald")
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+It is then responsibility of `Renderer` (i.e specific output format) to render it the way it wants.
+
+For instance, `HtmlRenderer` might render `ContentCodeBlock` as `<code>text</code>`, but `CommonmarkRenderer` might
+render it using backticks.
+
+___
+
+### DCI
+
+Each node is identified by unique `DCI`, which stands for _Dokka Content Identifier_. `DCI` aggregates `DRI`s of all
+`Documentables` that make up a specific `ContentNode`.
+
+```kotlin
+data class DCI(val dri: Set<DRI>, val kind: Kind)
+```
+
+All references to other nodes (other than direct ownership) are described using `DCI`.
+
+### ContentKind
+
+`ContentKind` represents a grouping of content of one kind that can can be rendered as part of a composite
+page (one tab/block within a class's page, for instance).
+
+For instance, on the same page that describes a class you can have multiple sections (== `ContentKind`).
+One to describe functions, one to describe properties, another one to describe constructors and so on.
+
+### Styles
+
+Each `ContentNode` has `styles` property in case you want to incidate to `Renderer` that this content needs to be
+displayed in a certain way.
+
+```kotlin
+group(styles = setOf(TextStyle.Paragraph)) {
+ text("Text1", styles = setOf(TextStyle.Bold))
+ text("Text2", styles = setOf(TextStyle.Italic))
+}
+```
+
+It is then responsibility of `Renderer` (i.e specific output format) to render it the way it wants. For instance,
+`HtmlRenderer` might render `TextStyle.Bold` as `<b>text</b>`, but `CommonmarkRenderer` might render it as `**text**`.
+
+There's a number of existing styles that you can use, most of them are supported by `HtmlRenderer` out of the box:
+
+```kotlin
+// for code highlighting
+enum class TokenStyle : Style {
+ Keyword, Punctuation, Function, Operator, Annotation,
+ Number, String, Boolean, Constant, Builtin, ...
+}
+
+enum class TextStyle : Style {
+ Bold, Italic, Strong, Strikethrough, Paragraph, ...
+}
+
+enum class ContentStyle : Style {
+ TabbedContent, RunnableSample, Wrapped, Indented, ...
+}
+```
+
+### Extra
+
+`ExtraProperty` is used to store any additional information that falls outside of the regular model. It is highly
+recommended to use extras to provide any additional information when creating custom Dokka plugins.
+
+All `ExtraProperty` elements from `Documentable` model are propagated into `Content` model and are available
+for `Renderer`.
+
+This element is a bit complex, so you can read more about how to use it [in a separate section](extra.md).

+# Base extensions
+
+`DokkaBase` class is a base plugin which defines a number of default implementations for `CoreExtensions` as well as
+declares its own, more high-level extension points to be used from other plugins and output formats.
+
+It's very convenient to use extension points and defaults defined in `DokkaBase` if you have an idea for a simple
+plugin that only needs to provide a few extensions or change a single extension point and have everything else be the
+default.
+
+`DokkaBase` is used extensively for Dokka's own output formats such as `HTML`, `Markdown`, `Mathjax` and others.
+
+You can learn how to add/use/override/configure extensions and extension points in
+[Introduction to Extensions](introduction.md), all the information is applicable to `DokkaBase` plugin as well.

+# Core extension points
+
+Core extension points represent the main stages of generating documentation.
+
+These extension points are plugin and output format independent, meaning it's the very core functionality and as
+low-level as can get. For higher-level extension functions that can be used in different output formats, have a look at
+[Base extensions](base_extensions.md) defined in `DokkaBase`.
+
+You can find all core extensions in `CoreExtensions` class:
+```kotlin
+object CoreExtensions {
+ val preGenerationCheck by coreExtensionPoint<PreGenerationChecker>()
+ val generation by coreExtensionPoint<Generation>()
+ val sourceToDocumentableTranslator by coreExtensionPoint<SourceToDocumentableTranslator>()
+ val documentableMerger by coreExtensionPoint<DocumentableMerger>()
+ val documentableTransformer by coreExtensionPoint<DocumentableTransformer>()
+ val documentableToPageTranslator by coreExtensionPoint<DocumentableToPageTranslator>()
+ val pageTransformer by coreExtensionPoint<PageTransformer>()
+ val renderer by coreExtensionPoint<Renderer>()
+ val postActions by coreExtensionPoint<PostAction>()
+}
+```
+
+On this page we'll go over each extension point individually.
+
+## PreGenerationChecker
+
+`PreGenerationChecker` can be used to run some checks and constraints.
+
+For instance, `Javadoc` plugin does not support generating documentation for multi-platform projects, so it uses
+`PreGenerationChecker` to check for multi-platform
+[source sets](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-discover-project.html#source-sets) and fails if it finds any.
+
+## Generation
+
+`Generation` is responsible for generating documentation as a whole, utilizing other extension points where applicable.
+
+There are two implementations at the moment:
+
+* `AllModulesPageGeneration` - generates multimodule documentation, for instance when `dokkaHtmlMultiModule` task is
+ invoked.
+* `SingleModuleGeneration` - generates documentation for a single module, for instance when `dokkaHtml` task is invoked
+
+### AllModulesPageGeneration
+
+`AllModulesPageGeneration` utilizes output generated by `SingleModuleGeneration`. Under the hood it just collects all
+pages generated for individual modules and assembles everything together, creating navigation pages between the
+modules and so on.
+
+### SingleModuleGeneration stages
+
+When developing a feature or a plugin, it's more convenient to think that you are generating documentation for single
+module projects, believing that Dokka will somehow take care of the rest in multimodule environment.
+
+`SingleModuleGeneration` is at heart of generating documentation and utilizes other core extension points, so
+it's worth going over its stages.
+
+Below you can see the transformations of [Dokka's models](../architecture_overview.md#overview-of-data-model) and
+extension interfaces responsible for each one. Notice how `Documentables` and `Pages` are transformed multiple times.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+ Input -- SourceToDocumentableTranslator --> doc1[Documentables]
+ subgraph documentables [ ]
+ doc1 -- PreMergeDocumentableTransformer --> doc2[Documentables]
+ doc2 -- DocumentableMerger --> doc3[Documentables]
+ doc3 -- DocumentableTransformer --> doc4[Documentables]
+ end
+ doc4 -- DocumentableToPageTranslator --> page1[Pages]
+ subgraph ide2 [ ]
+ page1 -- PageTransformer --> page2[Pages]
+ end
+ page2 -- Renderer --> Output
+```
+
+#### SourceToDocumentableTranslator
+
+`SourceToDocumentableTranslator` translates sources into documentable model.
+
+`Kotlin` and `Java` sources are supported by default, but you can analyze any language as long as you can map
+it to the [Documentable](../data_model/documentables.md) model.
+
+For reference, see
+
+* `DefaultDescriptorToDocumentableTranslator` for `Kotlin` sources translation
+* `DefaultPsiToDocumentableTranslator` for `Java` sources translation
+
+#### PreMergeDocumentableTransformer
+
+This extension point actually comes from `DokkaBase` and is not a core extension point, but it's used in
+`SingleModuleGeneration` nonetheless. If you are implementing your own plugin without relying on `DokkaBase`,
+you can either introduce a similar extension point or rely on [DocumentableTransformer](#documentabletransformer) which
+will be discussed below.
+
+`PreMergeDocumentableTransformer` allows applying any transformation to
+[Documentables model](../data_model/documentables.md) before different
+[source sets](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-discover-project.html#source-sets) are merged.
+
+Useful if you want to filter/map existing documentables. For instance, if you want to exclude members annotated with
+`@Internal`, you most likely need an implementation of `PreMergeDocumentableTransformer`.
+
+For simple condition-based filtering of documentables consider extending
+`SuppressedByConditionDocumentableFilterTransformer` - it implements `PreMergeDocumentableTransformer` and only
+requires one function to be overridden. The rest is taken care of.
+
+#### DocumentableMerger
+
+`DocumentableMerger` merges all `DModule` instances into one. Only one extension is expected of this type.
+
+#### DocumentableTransformer
+
+`DocumentableTransformer` performs the same function as `PreMergeDocumentableTransformer`, but after merging source
+sets.
+
+Notable example is `InheritorsExtractorTransformer`, it extracts inherited classes data across
+[source sets](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-discover-project.html#source-sets) and creates an inheritance
+map.
+
+#### DocumentableToPageTranslator
+
+`DocumentableToPageTranslator` is responsible for creating pages and their content. See
+[Page/Content model](../data_model/page_content.md) section for more information and examples.
+
+Different output formats can either use the same page structure or define their own in case it needs to be different.
+
+Only a single extension of this type is expected to be registered.
+
+#### PageTransformer
+
+`PageTransformer` is useful if you need to add/remove/modify generated pages or their content.
+
+Plugins like `mathjax` can add `.js` scripts to pages using this extension point.
+
+If you want all overloaded functions to be rendered on the same page (instead of separate ones),
+you can also use `PageTransformer` to delete excessive pages and combine them into a new single one.
+
+#### Renderer
+
+`Renderer` - defines rules on what to do with pages and their content, which files to create and how to display
+it properly.
+
+Output format implementations should use `Renderer` extension point. Notable examples are `HtmlRenderer`
+and `CommonmarkRenderer`.
+
+## PostAction
+
+`PostAction` is useful for when you want to run some actions after the documentation has been generated - for instance
+if you want to move some files around.
+
+[Versioning plugin](../../../user_guide/plugins/versioning-plugin.md) utilizes `PostAction` in order to move
+generated documentation to versioned folders.

+# Introduction to extension points
+
+In this section you can learn how to create new extension points, how to use and configure existing ones and
+how to query for extensions when generating documentation.
+
+## Declaring extension points
+
+If you are writing a plugin, you can create your own extension point that other developers (or you) can use later on
+in some other part of code.
+
+```kotlin
+class MyPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ val sampleExtensionPoint by extensionPoint<SampleExtensionPointInterface>()
+}
+
+interface SampleExtensionPointInterface {
+ fun doSomething(input: Input): List<Output>
+}
+
+class Input
+class Output
+```
+
+Usually you would want to provide some default implementation(s) for your extension point, you can do that
+within the same plugin class by extending an extension point you've just created.
+See [Extending from extension points](#extending-from-extension-points) for examples.
+
+## Extending from extension points
+
+You can use extension points to provide your own implementation(s) in order to customize plugin's behaviour.
+
+You can do that within the same class as the extension point itself:
+
+```kotlin
+open class MyPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ val sampleExtensionPoint by extensionPoint<SampleExtensionPointInterface>()
+
+ val defaultSampleExtension by extending {
+ sampleExtensionPoint with DefaultSampleExtension()
+ }
+}
+
+...
+
+class DefaultSampleExtension : SampleExtensionPointInterface {
+ override fun doSomething(input: Input): List<Output> = listOf()
+}
+```
+
+___
+
+If you want to extend someone else's plugin (including `DokkaBase`), you can use plugin querying API to do that.
+In the example below we will extend `MyPlugin` that was created above with our own implementation of
+`SampleExtensionPointInterface`.
+
+```kotlin
+class MyExtendedPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ val mySampleExtensionImplementation by extending {
+ plugin<MyPlugin>().sampleExtensionPoint with SampleExtensionImpl()
+ }
+}
+
+class SampleExtensionImpl : SampleExtensionPointInterface {
+ override fun doSomething(input: Input): List<Output> = listOf()
+}
+
+```
+
+### Providing
+
+If you need to have access to `DokkaContext` in order to create an extension, you can use `providing` instead.
+
+```kotlin
+val defaultSampleExtension by extending {
+ sampleExtensionPoint providing { context ->
+ // can use context to query other extensions or get configuration
+ DefaultSampleExtension()
+ }
+}
+```
+
+You can read more on what you can do with `context` in [Obtaining extension instance](#obtaining-extension-instance).
+
+### Override
+
+By extending an extension point, you are registering an _additional_ extension. This behaviour is expected for some
+extension points, for instance `Documentable` transformers, since all transformers do their own transformations and all
+of them will be invoked before proceeding.
+
+However, a plugin can expect only a single registered extension for an extension point. In this case, you can `override`
+existing registered extensions:
+
+```kotlin
+class MyExtendedPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ private val myPlugin by lazy { plugin<MyPlugin>() }
+
+ val mySampleExtensionImplementation by extending {
+ (myPlugin.sampleExtensionPoint
+ with SampleExtensionImpl()
+ override myPlugin.defaultSampleExtension)
+ }
+}
+```
+
+This is also useful if you wish to override some extension from `DokkaBase` to disable or alter it.
+
+### Order
+
+Sometimes the order in which extensions are invoked matters. This is something you can control as well using `order`:
+
+```kotlin
+class MyExtendedPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ private val myPlugin by lazy { plugin<MyPlugin>() }
+
+ val mySampleExtensionImplementation by extending {
+ myPlugin.sampleExtensionPoint with SampleExtensionImpl() order {
+ before(myPlugin.firstExtension)
+ after(myPlugin.thirdExtension)
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+### Conditional apply
+
+If you want your extension to be registered only if some condition is `true`, you can use `applyIf`:
+
+```kotlin
+class MyExtendedPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ private val myPlugin by lazy { plugin<MyPlugin>() }
+
+ val mySampleExtensionImplementation by extending {
+ myPlugin.sampleExtensionPoint with SampleExtensionImpl() applyIf {
+ Random.Default.nextBoolean()
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+## Obtaining extension instance
+
+After an extension point has been [created](#declaring-extension-points) and some extension has been
+[registered](#extending-from-extension-points), you can use `query` and `querySingle` to find all or just a single
+implementation for it.
+
+```kotlin
+class MyExtension(context: DokkaContext) {
+ // returns all registered extensions for this extension point
+ val allSampleExtensions = context.plugin<MyPlugin>().query { sampleExtensionPoint }
+
+ // will throw an exception if more than one extension is found
+ // use if you expect only a single extension to be registered for this extension point
+ val singleSampleExtensions = context.plugin<MyPlugin>().querySingle { sampleExtensionPoint }
+
+ fun invoke() {
+ allSampleExtensions.forEach { it.doSomething(Input()) }
+
+ singleSampleExtensions.doSomething(Input())
+ }
+}
+```
+
+In order to have access to context you can use [providing](#providing) when registering this as an extension.

+# Introduction to plugin development
+
+In order to have an easier time developing plugins, it's a good idea to go through
+[Dokka's internals](../architecture/architecture_overview.md) first to learn more about its
+[data model](../architecture/data_model/documentables.md) and
+[extensions](../architecture/extension_points/introduction.md).
+
+## Setup
+
+### Template
+
+The easiest way to start is to use the convenient [Dokka plugin template](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka-plugin-template).
+It has pre-configured dependencies, publishing and signing of your artifacts.
+
+### Manual
+
+At a bare minimum, Dokka requires `Kotlin Gradle Plugin` and `dokka-core` dependencies:
+
+```kotlin
+plugins {
+ kotlin("jvm") version "<kotlin_version>"
+}
+
+dependencies {
+ compileOnly("org.jetbrains.dokka:dokka-core:<dokka_version>")
+}
+
+tasks.withType<KotlinCompile> {
+ kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.8"
+}
+```
+
+In order to load a plugin into Dokka, your class must extend `DokkaPlugin` class. A fully qualified name of that class
+must be placed in a file named `org.jetbrains.dokka.plugability.DokkaPlugin` under `resources/META-INF/services`.
+All instances are automatically loaded during Dokka setup using `java.util.ServiceLoader`.
+
+## Extension points
+
+Dokka provides a set of entry points for which you can create your own implementations. If you are not sure which
+extension point to use, have a look at [core extensions](../architecture/extension_points/core_extensions.md) and
+[base extensions](../architecture/extension_points/base_extensions.md).
+
+You can learn how to declare extension points and use extensions in
+[Introduction to Extension points](../architecture/extension_points/introduction.md).
+
+In case no suitable extension point exists for your use case, do share the details - it might be added in future
+versions of Dokka.
+
+## Example
+
+You can follow the [sample plugin tutorial](sample-plugin-tutorial.md) which covers creation of a simple plugin: hide members
+annotated with your own `@Internal` annotation, that is exclude these members from generated documentation.
+
+Fore more practical examples, have a look at sources of [community plugins](../../community/plugins-list.md).
+
+## Help
+
+If you have any further questions, feel free to get in touch with maintainers via [Slack](../../community/slack.md) or
+[GitHub](https://github.com/kotlin/dokka).

+# Sample plugin tutorial
+
+We'll go over creating a simple plugin that covers a very common use case: generate documentation for everything except
+for members annotated with a custom `@Internal` annotation - they should be hidden.
+
+The plugin will be tested with the following code:
+
+```kotlin
+package org.jetbrains.dokka.internal.test
+
+annotation class Internal
+
+fun shouldBeVisible() {}
+
+@Internal
+fun shouldBeExcludedFromDocumentation() {}
+```
+
+Expected behavior: function `shouldBeExcludedFromDocumentation` should not be visible in generated documentation.
+
+Full source code of this tutorial can be found in Dokka's examples under
+[hide-internal-api](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/examples/plugin/hide-internal-api).
+
+## Preparing the project
+
+We'll begin by using [Dokka plugin template](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka-plugin-template). Press the
+`Use this template` button and
+[open this project in IntelliJ IDEA](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/guide/tutorials/working-with-gradle/opening-a-gradle-project/).
+
+First, let's rename the pre-made `template` package and `MyAwesomeDokkaPlugin` class to something of our own.
+
+For instance, package can be renamed to `org.example.dokka.plugin` and the class to `HideInternalApiPlugin`:
+
+```kotlin
+package org.example.dokka.plugin
+
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.plugability.DokkaPlugin
+
+class HideInternalApiPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+
+}
+```
+
+After you do that, make sure to update the path to this class in
+`resources/META-INF/services/org.jetbrains.dokka.plugability.DokkaPlugin`:
+```kotlin
+org.example.dokka.plugin.HideInternalApiPlugin
+```
+
+At this point you can also change project name in `settings.gradle.kts` (to `hide-internal-api` in our case)
+and `groupId` in `build.gradle.kts`.
+
+## Extending Dokka
+
+After preparing the project we can begin extending Dokka with our own extension.
+
+Having read through [Core extensions](../architecture/extension_points/core_extensions.md), it's clear that we need
+a `PreMergeDocumentableTransformer` extension in order to filter out undesired documentables.
+
+Moreover, the article mentioned a convenient abstract transformer `SuppressedByConditionDocumentableFilterTransformer`
+which is perfect for our use case, so we can try to implement it.
+
+Create a new class, place it next to your plugin and implement the abstract method. You should end up with this:
+
+```kotlin
+package org.example.dokka.plugin
+
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.base.transformers.documentables.SuppressedByConditionDocumentableFilterTransformer
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.model.Documentable
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.plugability.DokkaContext
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.plugability.DokkaPlugin
+
+class HideInternalApiPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {}
+
+class HideInternalApiTransformer(context: DokkaContext) : SuppressedByConditionDocumentableFilterTransformer(context) {
+
+ override fun shouldBeSuppressed(d: Documentable): Boolean {
+ return false
+ }
+}
+```
+
+Now we somehow need to find all annotations applied to `d: Documentable` and see if our `@Internal` annotation is present.
+However, it's not very clear how to do that. What usually helps is stopping in debugger and having a look at what fields
+and values a given `Documentable` has.
+
+To do that, we'll need to register our extension point first, then we can publish our plugin and set the breakpoint.
+
+Having read through [Introduction to extensions](../architecture/extension_points/introduction.md), we now know
+how to register our extensions:
+
+```kotlin
+class HideInternalApiPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ val myFilterExtension by extending {
+ plugin<DokkaBase>().preMergeDocumentableTransformer providing ::HideInternalApiTransformer
+ }
+}
+```
+
+At this point we're ready to debug our plugin locally, it should already work, but do nothing.
+
+## Debugging
+
+Please read through [Debugging Dokka](../workflow.md#debugging-dokka), it goes over the same steps in more detail
+and with examples. Below you will find rough instructions.
+
+First, let's begin by publishing our plugin to `mavenLocal()`.
+
+```bash
+./gradlew publishToMavenLocal
+```
+
+This will publish your plugin under the `groupId`, `artifactId` and `version` that you've specified in your
+`build.gradle.kts`. In our case it's `org.example:hide-internal-api:1.0-SNAPSHOT`.
+
+Open a debug project of your choosing that has Dokka configured, and add our plugin to dependencies:
+
+```kotlin
+dependencies {
+ dokkaPlugin("org.example:hide-internal-api:1.0-SNAPSHOT")
+}
+```
+
+Next, in that project let's run `dokkaHtml` with debug enabled:
+
+```bash
+./gradlew clean dokkaHtml -Dorg.gradle.debug=true --no-daemon
+```
+
+Switch to the plugin project, set a breakpoint inside `shouldBeSuppressed` and run jvm remote debug.
+
+If you've done everything correctly, it should stop in debugger and you should be able to observe the values contained
+inside `d: Documentable`.
+
+## Implementing plugin logic
+
+Now that we've stopped at our breakpoint, let's skip until we see `shouldBeExcludedFromDocumentation` function in the
+place of `d: Documentable` (observe the changing `name` property).
+
+Looking at what's inside the object, you might notice it has 3 values in `extra`, one of which is `Annotations`.
+Sounds like something we need!
+
+Having poked around, we come up with the following monstrosity of a code for determining if a given documentable has
+`@Internal` annotation (it can of course be refactored.. later):
+
+```kotlin
+override fun shouldBeSuppressed(d: Documentable): Boolean {
+
+ val annotations: List<Annotations.Annotation> =
+ (d as? WithExtraProperties<*>)
+ ?.extra
+ ?.allOfType<Annotations>()
+ ?.flatMap { it.directAnnotations.values.flatten() }
+ ?: emptyList()
+
+ return annotations.any { isInternalAnnotation(it) }
+}
+
+private fun isInternalAnnotation(annotation: Annotations.Annotation): Boolean {
+ return annotation.dri.packageName == "org.jetbrains.dokka.internal.test"
+ && annotation.dri.classNames == "Internal"
+}
+```
+
+Seems like we're done with writing our plugin and can begin testing it manually.
+
+## Manual testing
+
+At this point, the implementation of your plugin should look roughly like this:
+
+```kotlin
+package org.example.dokka.plugin
+
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.base.DokkaBase
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.base.transformers.documentables.SuppressedByConditionDocumentableFilterTransformer
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.model.Annotations
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.model.Documentable
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.model.properties.WithExtraProperties
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.plugability.DokkaContext
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.plugability.DokkaPlugin
+
+class HideInternalApiPlugin : DokkaPlugin() {
+ val myFilterExtension by extending {
+ plugin<DokkaBase>().preMergeDocumentableTransformer providing ::HideInternalApiTransformer
+ }
+}
+
+class HideInternalApiTransformer(context: DokkaContext) : SuppressedByConditionDocumentableFilterTransformer(context) {
+
+ override fun shouldBeSuppressed(d: Documentable): Boolean {
+ val annotations: List<Annotations.Annotation> =
+ (d as? WithExtraProperties<*>)
+ ?.extra
+ ?.allOfType<Annotations>()
+ ?.flatMap { it.directAnnotations.values.flatten() }
+ ?: emptyList()
+
+ return annotations.any { isInternalAnnotation(it) }
+ }
+
+ private fun isInternalAnnotation(annotation: Annotations.Annotation): Boolean {
+ return annotation.dri.packageName == "org.jetbrains.dokka.internal.test"
+ && annotation.dri.classNames == "Internal"
+ }
+}
+```
+
+Bump plugin version in `gradle.build.kts`, publish it to maven local, open the debug project and run `dokkaHtml`
+(without debug this time). It should work, you should **not** be able to see `shouldBeExcludedFromDocumentation`
+function in generated documentation.
+
+Manual testing is cool and all, but wouldn't it be better if we could somehow write unit tests for it? Indeed!
+
+## Unit testing
+
+You might've noticed that plugin template comes with a pre-made test class. Feel free to move it to another package
+and rename it.
+
+We are mostly interested in a single test case - functions annotated with `@Internal` should be hidden, while all other
+public functions should be visible.
+
+Plugin API comes with a set of convenient test utilities that are used to test Dokka itself, so it covers a wide range
+of use cases. When in doubt, see Dokka's tests for reference.
+
+Below you will find a complete unit test that passes, and the main takeaways below that.
+
+```kotlin
+package org.example.dokka.plugin
+
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.base.testApi.testRunner.BaseAbstractTest
+import org.junit.Test
+import kotlin.test.assertEquals
+
+class HideInternalApiPluginTest : BaseAbstractTest() {
+
+ @Test
+ fun `should hide annotated functions`() {
+ val configuration = dokkaConfiguration {
+ sourceSets {
+ sourceSet {
+ sourceRoots = listOf("src/main/kotlin/basic/Test.kt")
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ val hideInternalPlugin = HideInternalApiPlugin()
+
+ testInline(
+ """
+ |/src/main/kotlin/basic/Test.kt
+ |package org.jetbrains.dokka.internal.test
+ |
+ |annotation class Internal
+ |
+ |fun shouldBeVisible() {}
+ |
+ |@Internal
+ |fun shouldBeExcludedFromDocumentation() {}
+ """.trimMargin(),
+ configuration = configuration,
+ pluginOverrides = listOf(hideInternalPlugin)
+ ) {
+ preMergeDocumentablesTransformationStage = { modules ->
+ val testModule = modules.single { it.name == "root" }
+ val testPackage = testModule.packages.single { it.name == "org.jetbrains.dokka.internal.test" }
+
+ val packageFunctions = testPackage.functions
+ assertEquals(1, packageFunctions.size)
+ assertEquals("shouldBeVisible", packageFunctions[0].name)
+ }
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+Note that the package of the tested code (inside `testInline` function) is the same as the package that we have
+hardcoded in our plugin. Make sure to change that to your own if you are following along, otherwise it will fail.
+
+Things to note and remember:
+
+1. Your test class should extend `BaseAbstractTest`, which contains base utility methods for testing.
+2. You can configure Dokka to your liking, enable some specific settings, configure
+ [source sets](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-discover-project.html#source-sets), etc. All done via
+ `dokkaConfiguration` DSL.
+3. `testInline` function is the main entry point for unit tests
+4. You can pass plugins to be used in a test, notice `pluginOverrides` parameter
+5. You can write asserts for different stages of generating documentation, the main ones being `Documentables` model
+ generation, `Pages` generation and `Output` generation. Since we implemented our plugin to work during
+ `PreMergeDocumentableTransformer` stage, we can test it on the same level (that is
+ `preMergeDocumentablesTransformationStage`).
+6. You will need to write asserts using the model of whatever stage you choose. For `Documentable` transformation stage
+ it's `Documentable`, for `Page` generation stage you would have `Page` model, and for `Output` you can have `.html`
+ files that you will need to parse with `JSoup` (there are also utilities for that).

+# Workflow
+
+Whether you're contributing a feature/fix to Dokka itself or developing a separate plugin, there's 3 things
+you'll be doing:
+
+1. Building Dokka / Plugins
+2. Using/Testing locally built Dokka in a (debug) project
+3. Debugging Dokka / Plugin code
+
+We'll go over each step individually in this section.
+
+Examples below will be specific to Gradle and [Gradle’s Kotlin DSL](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/kotlin_dsl.html),
+but you can apply the same principles and run/test/debug with CLI/Maven runners and build configurations if you wish.
+
+## Building Dokka
+
+Building Dokka is pretty straightforward, with one small caveat: when you run `./gradlew build`, it will run
+integration tests as well, which might take some time and will consume a lot of RAM, so you would usually want
+to exclude integration tests when building locally.
+
+```shell
+./gradlew build -x integrationTest
+```
+
+Unit tests which are run as part of `build` should not take much time, but you can also skip it with `-x test`.
+
+### Troubleshooting build
+
+#### API check failed for project ..
+
+If you see messages like `API check failed for project ..` during `build` phase, it indicates that
+[binary compatibility check](https://github.com/Kotlin/binary-compatibility-validator) has failed, meaning you've
+changed/added/removed some public API.
+
+If the change was intentional, run `./gradlew apiDump` - it will re-generate `.api` files with signatures,
+and you should be able to `build` Dokka with no errors. These updated files need to be committed as well. Maintainers
+will review API changes thoroughly, so please make sure it's intentional and rational.
+
+## Using/testing locally built Dokka
+
+Having built Dokka locally, you can publish it to `mavenLocal()`. This will allow you to test your changes in another
+project as well as debug code remotely.
+
+1. Change `dokka_version` in `gradle.properties` to something that you will use later on as the dependency version.
+ For instance, you can set it to something like `1.7.20-my-fix-SNAPSHOT`. This version will be propagated to plugins
+ that reside inside Dokka's project (such as `mathjax`, `kotlin-as-java`, etc).
+2. Publish it to maven local (`./gradlew publishToMavenLocal`). Corresponding artifacts should appear in `~/.m2`
+3. In the project you want to generate documentation for or debug on, add maven local as a plugin/dependency
+ repository:
+```kotlin
+repositories {
+ mavenLocal()
+}
+```
+4. Update your dokka dependency to the version you've just published:
+```kotlin
+plugins {
+ id("org.jetbrains.dokka") version "1.7.20-my-fix-SNAPSHOT"
+}
+```
+
+After completing these steps, you should be able to build documentation using your own version of Dokka.
+
+## Debugging Dokka
+
+Dokka is essentially a gradle plugin, so you can debug it the same way you would any other gradle plugin.
+
+Below you'll find instructions on how to debug Dokka's internal logic, but you can apply the same principles if you
+wish to debug a plugin which resides in a separate project.
+
+1. Choose a project to debug on, it needs to have some code for which documentation will be generated.
+ Prefer using smaller projects that reproduce the exact problem or behaviour you want
+ since the less code you have, the easier it will be to understand what's going on. You can use example projects
+ found in [dokka/examples/gradle](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/tree/master/examples/gradle), there's both simple
+ single-module and more complex multimodule/multiplatform examples.
+2. For the debug project, set `org.gradle.debug` to `true` in one of the following ways:
+
+ * In your `gradle.properties` add `org.gradle.debug=true`
+ * When running Dokka tasks:<br/>`./gradlew dokkaHtml -Dorg.gradle.debug=true --no-daemon`
+
+3. Run desired Dokka task with `--no-daemon`. Gradle should wait until you attach with debugger before proceeding
+ with the task, so no need to hurry here.
+ <br/>Example: `./gradlew dokkaHtml -Dorg.gradle.debug=true --no-daemon`.
+
+4. Open Dokka in IntelliJ IDEA, set a breakpoint and, using remote debug in IntelliJ IDEA,
+ [Attach to process](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/attaching-to-local-process.html#attach-to-remote)
+ running on the default port 5005. You can do that either by creating a `Remote JVM Debug` Run/Debug configuration
+ or by attaching to the process via `Run` -> `Attach to process`
+
+!!! note
+ The reason for `--no-daemon` is that
+ [Gradle daemons](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/gradle_daemon.html) continue to exist even after the task
+ has completed execution, so you might hang in debug or experience issues with `port was already in use` if you try
+ to run it again.
+
+ If you previously ran Dokka with daemons and you are already encountering problems with it, try killing
+ gradle daemons. For instance, via `pkill -f gradle.*daemon`
+
+In case you need to debug some other part of the build - consult the official Gradle
+tutorials on [Troubleshooting Builds](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/troubleshooting.html).

+# Dokka
+
+`Dokka` is an API documentation engine for `Kotlin` that performs the same function as the `Javadoc` tool for `Java`,
+but it's modern and highly pluggable.
+
+Just like `Kotlin` itself, `Dokka` supports mixed-language projects (`Kotlin`/`Java`). It understands
+[KDoc comments](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/kotlin-doc.html) in `Kotlin` source files as well
+as [Javadoc comments](https://www.oracle.com/technical-resources/articles/java/javadoc-tool.html#format) in `Java`
+files, and can generate documentation in multiple formats including its own `HTML` format, Java's `Javadoc` lookalike
+and `Markdown`.
+
+Some libraries that use `Dokka` for API reference docs:
+
+* [kotlinx.coroutines](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.coroutines/)
+* [kotlinx.serialization](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.serialization/)
+* [Ktor](https://api.ktor.io/)
+* [Spring Framework](https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/kdoc-api/)
+
+___
+
+`Dokka` provides support for the following build systems:
+
+* [Gradle](user_guide/applying/gradle.md) (preferred)
+* [Maven](user_guide/applying/maven.md)
+* [Command line](user_guide/applying/cli.md)
+
+___
+
+`Dokka` is also very pluggable and comes with convenient plugin and extension point API.
+
+You can write a plugin to support [mermaid.js](community/plugins-list.md#mermaid) diagrams,
+[mathjax](community/plugins-list.md#mathjax) formulas or even write custom processing of your own tags and annotations.
+
+For more info, see:

+# Using command line
+
+To run Dokka from the command line, download the [Dokka CLI runner](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.dokka/dokka-cli).
+To generate documentation, run the following command:
+```
+java -jar dokka-cli.jar <arguments>
+```
+
+## Configuration options
+
+Dokka supports the following command line arguments:
+
+* `-outputDir` - the output directory where the documentation is generated
+* `-moduleName` - (required) - module name used as a part of source set ID when declaring dependent source sets
+* `-cacheRoot` - cache directory to enable package-list caching
+* `-pluginsClasspath` - artifacts with Dokka plugins, separated by `;`. At least `dokka-base` and all its dependencies must be added there
+* `-pluginsConfiguration` - configuration for plugins in format `fqPluginName=json^^fqPluginName=json...`
+* `-offlineMode` - do not resolve package-lists online
+* `-failOnWarning` - throw an exception instead of a warning
+* `-globalPackageOptions` - per package options added to all source sets
+* `-globalLinks` - external documentation links added to all source sets
+* `-globalSrcLink` - source links added to all source sets
+* `-noSuppressObviousFunctions` - don't suppress obvious functions like default `toString` or `equals`
+* `-suppressInheritedMembers` - suppress all inherited members that were not overriden in a given class. Eg. using it you can suppress toString or equals functions but you can't suppress componentN or copy on data class
+* `-sourceSet` - (repeatable) - configuration for a single source set. Following this argument, you can pass other arguments:
+ * `-sourceSetName` - source set name as a part of source set ID when declaring dependent source sets
+ * `-displayName` - source set name displayed in the generated documentation
+ * `-src` - list of source files or directories separated by `;`
+ * `-classpath` - list of directories or .jar files to include in the classpath (used for resolving references) separated by `;`
+ * `-samples` - list of directories containing sample code (documentation for those directories is not generated but declarations from them can be referenced using the `@sample` tag) separated by `;`
+ * `-includes` - list of files containing the documentation for the module and individual packages separated by `;`
+ * `-includeNonPublic` - **Deprecated**, prefer using `documentedVisibilities`. Include protected and private code
+ * `-documentedVisibilities` - a list of visibility modifiers (separated by `;`) that should be documented. Overrides `includeNonPublic`. Default is `PUBLIC`. Possible values: `PUBLIC`, `PRIVATE`, `PROTECTED`, `INTERNAL` (Kotlin-specific), `PACKAGE` (Java-specific package-private)
+ * `-skipDeprecated` - if set, deprecated elements are not included in the generated documentation
+ * `-reportUndocumented` - warn about undocumented members
+ * `-noSkipEmptyPackages` - create index pages for empty packages
+ * `-perPackageOptions` - list of package options in format `matchingRegex,-deprecated,-privateApi,+reportUndocumented;+visibility:PRIVATE;matchingRegex, ...`, separated by `;`
+ * `-links` - list of external documentation links in format `url^packageListUrl^^url2...`, separated by `;`
+ * `-srcLink` - mapping between a source directory and a Web site for browsing the code in format `<path>=<url>[#lineSuffix]`
+ * `-noStdlibLink` - disable linking to online kotlin-stdlib documentation
+ * `-noJdkLink` - disable linking to online JDK documentation
+ * `-jdkVersion` - version of JDK to use for linking to JDK JavaDoc
+ * `-analysisPlatform` - platform used for analysis, see the [Platforms](#platforms) section
+ * `-dependentSourceSets` - list of dependent source sets in format `moduleName/sourceSetName`, separated by `;`
+* `-loggingLevel` - one of `DEBUG`, `PROGRESS`, `INFO`, `WARN`, `ERROR`. Defaults to `DEBUG`. Please note that this argument can't be passed in JSON.
+
+
+You can also use a JSON file with Dokka configuration:
+ ```
+ java -jar <dokka_cli.jar> <path_to_config.json>
+ ```
+
+## Applying plugins
+To apply a Dokka plugin you have to provide it and all its dependencies in the `pluginsClasspath` parameter
+
+## Base plugin
+
+Using CLI runner to generate default documentation requires providing all dependencies manually on classpath.
+For Base plugins these are:
+
+* [dokka-base.jar](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.dokka/dokka-base)
+* [dokka-analysis.jar](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.dokka/dokka-analysis)
+* [kotlin-analysis-compiler.jar](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.dokka/kotlin-analysis-compiler)
+* [kotlin-analysis-intellij.jar](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.dokka/kotlin-analysis-intellij)
+* [kotlinx-html-jvm.jar](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.kotlinx/kotlinx-html-jvm?repo=kotlinx)
+
+All of them are published on maven central. Another dependencies of Base plugin (e.g. `kotlinx-coroutines-core` and so on) are already included in `dokka-cli.jar`.
+To get them on classpath one should add them via `pluginsClasspath` argument, e. g.
+```
+java -jar dokka-cli.jar -pluginsClasspath "dokka-base.jar;dokka-analysis.jar;kotlin-analysis-compiler.jar;kotlin-analysis-intellij.jar;kotlinx-html-jvm.jar" ...
+```
+
+## Example using JSON
+
+To run Dokka with JSON configuration:
+```
+java -jar dokka-cli.jar dokkaConfiguration.json
+```
+Option values of JSON correspond to [Gradle ones](../../gradle/usage#configuration-options).
+The content of JSON file ```dokkaConfiguration.json```:
+```json
+{
+ "moduleName": "Dokka Example",
+ "moduleVersion": null,
+ "outputDir": "build/dokka/html",
+ "cacheRoot": null,

+# Using the Gradle plugin
+
+!!! important
+ If you are upgrading from 0.10.x to a current release of Dokka, please have a look at our
+ [migration guide](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/blob/master/runners/gradle-plugin/MIGRATION.md)
+
+### Supported versions
+Dokka should work on gradle newer than 5.6
+
+### Setup
+
+The preferred way is to use `plugins` block.
+
+build.gradle.kts:
+```kotlin
+plugins {
+ id("org.jetbrains.dokka") version "1.7.20"
+}
+
+repositories {
+ mavenCentral()
+}
+```
+
+You can also use the legacy plugin application method with `buildscript` block.
+Note that by using the `buildscript` way type-safe accessors are not available in Gradle Kotlin DSL,
+eg. you'll have to use `named<DokkaTask>("dokkaHtml")` instead of `dokkaHtml`:
+
+```kotlin
+buildscript {
+ dependencies {
+ classpath("org.jetbrains.dokka:dokka-gradle-plugin:${dokka_version}")
+ }
+}
+
+apply(plugin="org.jetbrains.dokka")
+```
+
+The plugin adds `dokkaHtml`, `dokkaJavadoc`, `dokkaGfm` and `dokkaJekyll` tasks to the project.
+
+Each task corresponds to one output format, so you should run `dokkaGfm` when you want to have a documentation in `GFM` format.
+Output formats are explained in [the introduction](../introduction.md#output-formats)
+
+If you encounter any problems when migrating from older versions of Dokka, please see the [FAQ](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/wiki/faq).
+
+Minimal configuration (with custom output directory only):
+
+Kotlin DSL
+```kotlin
+tasks.dokkaHtml.configure {
+ outputDirectory.set(buildDir.resolve("dokka"))
+}
+```
+
+
+Groovy DSL
+```groovy
+dokkaHtml {
+ outputDirectory.set(file("${buildDir}/dokka"))
+}
+```
+
+!!! note
+ Dokka extracts the information about sourcesets from the Kotlin Gradle plugin.
+ Therefore, if you are using Dokka in a [precompiled script plugin](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/custom_plugins.html#sec:precompiled_plugins),
+ you will have to add a depencency to the Kotlin Gradle Plugin as well
+ (`implementation(kotlin("gradle-plugin", "<kotlin-version>"))` resp. `implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:<kotlin-version>")`).
+
+## Configuration options
+
+Dokka documents single-platform as well as multi-platform projects.
+Most of the configuration options are set per one source set.
+The available configuration options are shown below:
+
+```kotlin
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.DokkaConfiguration
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.gradle.DokkaTask
+
+val dokkaHtml by getting(DokkaTask::class) {
+ outputDirectory.set(buildDir.resolve("dokka"))
+
+ // Set module name displayed in the final output
+ moduleName.set("moduleName")
+
+ // Use default or set to custom path to cache directory
+ // to enable package-list caching
+ // When this is set to default, caches are stored in $USER_HOME/.cache/dokka
+ cacheRoot.set(file("default"))
+
+ // Suppress obvious functions like default toString or equals. Defaults to true
+ suppressObviousFunctions.set(false)
+
+ // Suppress all inherited members that were not overriden in a given class.
+ // Eg. using it you can suppress toString or equals functions but you can't suppress componentN or copy on data class. To do that use with suppressObviousFunctions
+ // Defaults to false
+ suppressInheritedMembers.set(true)
+
+ // Used to prevent resolving package-lists online. When this option is set to true, only local files are resolved
+ offlineMode.set(false)
+
+ dokkaSourceSets {
+ configureEach { // Or source set name, for single-platform the default source sets are `main` and `test`
+
+ // Used when configuring source sets manually for declaring which source sets this one depends on
+ dependsOn("otherSourceSetName")
+
+ // Used to remove a source set from documentation, test source sets are suppressed by default
+ suppress.set(false)
+
+ // Deprecated. Prefer using documentedVisibilities.
+ includeNonPublic.set(false)
+
+ // A set of visibility modifiers that should be documented
+ // If set by user, overrides includeNonPublic. Default is PUBLIC
+ documentedVisibilities.set(
+ setOf(
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.PUBLIC, // Same for both Kotlin and Java
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.PRIVATE, // Same for both Kotlin and Java
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.PROTECTED, // Same for both Kotlin and Java
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.INTERNAL, // Kotlin-specific internal modifier
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.PACKAGE, // Java-specific package-private visibility
+ )
+ )
+
+ // Do not output deprecated members. Applies globally, can be overridden by packageOptions
+ skipDeprecated.set(false)
+
+ // Emit warnings about not documented members. Applies globally, also can be overridden by packageOptions
+ reportUndocumented.set(true)
+
+ // Do not create index pages for empty packages
+ skipEmptyPackages.set(true)
+
+ // This name will be shown in the final output
+ displayName.set("JVM")
+
+ // Platform used for code analysis. See the "Platforms" section of this readme
+ platform.set(org.jetbrains.dokka.Platform.jvm)
+
+ // Property used for manual addition of files to the classpath
+ // This property does not override the classpath collected automatically but appends to it
+ classpath.from(file("libs/dependency.jar"))
+
+ // List of files with module and package documentation
+ // https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/kotlin-doc.html#module-and-package-documentation
+ includes.from("packages.md", "extra.md")
+
+ // List of files or directories containing sample code (referenced with @sample tags)
+ samples.from("samples/basic.kt", "samples/advanced.kt")
+
+ // By default, sourceRoots are taken from Kotlin Plugin and kotlinTasks, following roots will be appended to them
+ // Repeat for multiple sourceRoots
+ sourceRoots.from(file("src"))
+
+ // Specifies the location of the project source code on the Web.
+ // If provided, Dokka generates "source" links for each declaration.
+ // Repeat for multiple mappings
+ sourceLink {
+ // Unix based directory relative path to the root of the project (where you execute gradle respectively).
+ localDirectory.set(file("src/main/kotlin"))
+
+ // URL showing where the source code can be accessed through the web browser
+ remoteUrl.set(java.net.URL(
+ "https://github.com/cy6erGn0m/vertx3-lang-kotlin/blob/master/src/main/kotlin"))
+ // Suffix which is used to append the line number to the URL. Use #L for GitHub
+ remoteLineSuffix.set("#L")
+ }
+
+ // Used for linking to JDK documentation
+ jdkVersion.set(8)
+
+ // Disable linking to online kotlin-stdlib documentation
+ noStdlibLink.set(false)
+
+ // Disable linking to online JDK documentation
+ noJdkLink.set(false)
+
+ // Disable linking to online Android documentation (only applicable for Android projects)
+ noAndroidSdkLink.set(false)
+
+ // Allows linking to documentation of the project"s dependencies (generated with Javadoc or Dokka)
+ // Repeat for multiple links
+ externalDocumentationLink {
+ // Root URL of the generated documentation to link with. The trailing slash is required!
+ url.set(URL("https://example.com/docs/"))
+
+ // If package-list file is located in non-standard location
+ // packageListUrl = URL("file:///home/user/localdocs/package-list")
+ }
+
+ // Allows to customize documentation generation options on a per-package basis
+ // Repeat for multiple packageOptions
+ // If multiple packages match the same matchingRegex, the longest matchingRegex will be used
+ perPackageOption {
+ // will match kotlin and all sub-packages of it
+ matchingRegex.set("kotlin($|\\.).*")
+
+ // All options are optional
+ skipDeprecated.set(false)
+ reportUndocumented.set(true) // Emit warnings about not documented members
+ includeNonPublic.set(false) // Deprecated, prefer using documentedVisibilities
+
+ // Visibilities that should be included in the documentation
+ // If set by user, overrides includeNonPublic. Default is PUBLIC
+ documentedVisibilities.set(
+ setOf(
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.PUBLIC, // Same for both Kotlin and Java
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.PRIVATE, // Same for both Kotlin and Java
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.PROTECTED, // Same for both Kotlin and Java
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.INTERNAL, // Kotlin-specific internal modifier
+ DokkaConfiguration.Visibility.PACKAGE, // Java-specific package-private visibility
+ )
+ )
+ }
+ // Suppress a package
+ perPackageOption {
+ matchingRegex.set(""".*\.internal.*""") // will match all .internal packages and sub-packages
+ suppress.set(true)
+ }
+
+ // Include generated files in documentation
+ // By default Dokka will omit all files in folder named generated that is a child of buildDir
+ suppressGeneratedFiles.set(false)
+ }
+ // Configures a plugin separately from the global configuration
+ pluginConfiguration<PluginClass, ConfigurationClass>{
+ // values
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+## Multiplatform
+Dokka supports single-platform and multi-platform projects using source sets abstraction. For most mutli-platform projects
+you should assume that Dokka's source sets correspond to Kotlin plugin's source sets. All source sets are by default registered
+and configured automatically although test source sets are suppressed
+
+Kotlin
+```kotlin
+kotlin { // Kotlin Multiplatform plugin configuration
+ jvm()
+ js("customName")
+}
+
+tasks.withType<DokkaTask>().configureEach {
+ // custom output directory
+ outputDirectory.set(buildDir.resolve("dokka"))
+
+ dokkaSourceSets {
+ named("customNameMain") { // The same name as in Kotlin Multiplatform plugin, so the sources are fetched automatically
+ includes.from("packages.md", "extra.md")
+ samples.from("samples/basic.kt", "samples/advanced.kt")
+ }
+
+ register("differentName") { // Different name, so source roots must be passed explicitly
+ displayName.set("JVM")
+ platform.set(org.jetbrains.dokka.Platform.jvm)
+ sourceRoots.from(kotlin.sourceSets.getByName("jvmMain").kotlin.srcDirs)
+ sourceRoots.from(kotlin.sourceSets.getByName("commonMain").kotlin.srcDirs)
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+!!! note
+ If you want to share the configuration between source sets, you can use Gradle's `configureEach`
+
+## Applying plugins
+Dokka plugin creates Gradle configuration for each output format in the form of `dokka${format}Plugin` (or `dokka${format}PartialPlugin` for multi-module tasks) :
+
+```kotlin
+dependencies {
+ dokkaHtmlPlugin("org.jetbrains.dokka:kotlin-as-java-plugin:1.7.20")
+}
+```
+
+You can also create a custom Dokka task and add plugins directly inside:
+
+```kotlin
+val customDokkaTask by creating(DokkaTask::class) {
+ dependencies {
+ plugins("org.jetbrains.dokka:kotlin-as-java-plugin:1.7.20")
+ }
+}
+```
+
+!!! important
+ Please note that `dokkaJavadoc` task will properly document only single `jvm` source set
+
+To generate the documentation, use the appropriate `dokka${format}` Gradle task:
+
+```bash
+./gradlew dokkaHtml
+```
+
+Some plugins can be configured separately using a plugin class and configuration class. For example:
+
+```kotlin
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.base.DokkaBase
+import org.jetbrains.dokka.base.DokkaBaseConfiguration
+
+pluginConfiguration<DokkaBase, DokkaBaseConfiguration> {
+ customAssets = listOf(file("<path to asset>"))
+ customStyleSheets = listOf(file("<path to custom stylesheet>"))
+}
+```
+
+Keep in mind, that this only works when using a buildscript (with the configured plugin on classpath) since it is not possible to import plugin's class without it.
+For example, you can add `DokkaBase` to gain access to aforementioned configuration:
+
+```kotlin
+buildscript {
+ dependencies {
+ // classpath("<plugin coordinates>:<plugin version>")
+ classpath("org.jetbrains.dokka:dokka-base:1.7.20")
+ }
+}
+```
+
+If you don't want to use a buildscript or use Kotlin version lower than 1.3.50 you can achieve the same behaviour manually:
+```kotlin
+pluginsMapConfiguration.set(mapOf("<fully qualified plugin's name>" to """<json configuration>"""))
+```
+## Android
+
+!!! important
+ Make sure you apply Dokka after `com.android.library` and `kotlin-android`.
+
+```kotlin
+buildscript {
+ dependencies {
+ classpath("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:${kotlin_version}")
+ classpath("org.jetbrains.dokka:dokka-gradle-plugin:${dokka_version}")
+ }
+}
+repositories {
+ mavenCentral()
+}
+apply(plugin= "com.android.library")
+apply(plugin= "kotlin-android")
+apply(plugin= "org.jetbrains.dokka")
+```
+
+```kotlin
+dokkaHtml.configure {
+ dokkaSourceSets {
+ named("main") {
+ noAndroidSdkLink.set(false)
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+## Multi-module projects
+For documenting Gradle multi-module projects, you can use `dokka${format}MultiModule` tasks.
+Dokka plugin adds `dokkaHtmlMultiModule`, `dokkaGfmMultiModule` and `dokkaJekyllMultiModule` tasks to
+all Gradle parent projects (all projects that have some child projects) as well as
+`dokkaHtmlPartial`, `dokkaGfmPartial` and `dokkaJekyllPartial` to all projects that have a parent.
+If you want eg. to add an external link to some dependency you should do so in respective `dokka${format}Partial` tasks,
+or configure them all at once using the `subprojects` block and `configureEach` method.
+
+```kotlin
+tasks.dokkaHtmlMultiModule.configure {
+ outputDirectory.set(buildDir.resolve("dokkaCustomMultiModuleOutput"))
+}
+```
+
+`DokkaMultiModule` depends on all Dokka tasks in the subprojects named `dokka${format}Partial`, runs them, and creates a top-level page
+with links to all generated (sub)documentations. It is possible to configure each of them:
+```kotlin
+tasks.dokkaHtmlPartial.configure {
+ failOnWarning.set(true)
+}
+```
+
+## Example projects
+
+Please see the [Dokka Gradle single module example project](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/tree/master/examples/gradle/dokka-gradle-example) or [multimodule](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/tree/master/examples/gradle/dokka-multimodule-example) for an example.
+
+Also see [generated documentation](https://Kotlin.github.io/dokka/examples/dokka-gradle-example/html) in `HTML` format.

+# Using the Maven plugin
+
+!!! note
+ Dokka Maven plugin does not support multi-platform projects.
+
+Minimal Maven configuration is
+
+```xml

+ </execution>
+ </executions>
+</plugin>
+```
+
+By default files will be generated in `target/dokka`.
+
+The following goals are provided by the plugin:
+
+* `dokka:dokka` - generate HTML documentation in Dokka format (showing declarations in Kotlin syntax)
+* `dokka:javadoc` - generate HTML documentation in Javadoc format (showing declarations in Java syntax)

+# Introduction
+
+## Plugins
+Dokka can be customized with plugins. Each output format is internally a plugin.
+Additionally, `kotlin-as-java` plugin can be used to generate documentation as seen from Java perspective.
+Currently maintained plugins are:
+
+* `dokka-base` - the main plugin needed to run Dokka, contains html format
+* `gfm-plugin` - configures `GFM` output format
+* `jekyll-plugin` - configures `Jekyll` output format
+* `javadoc-plugin` - configures `Javadoc` output format, automatically applies `kotlin-as-java-plugin`
+* `kotlin-as-java-plugin` - translates Kotlin definitions to Java
+* `android-documentation-plugin` - provides android specific enhancements like `@hide` support
+
+Please see the usage instructions for each build system on how to add plugins to Dokka.
+
+## Source sets
+Dokka generates documentation based on source sets.
+
+For single-platform & multi-platform projects, source sets are the same as in Kotlin plugin:
+
+ * One source set for each platform, eg. `jvmMain` or `jsMain`;
+ * One source set for each common source set, eg. the default `commonMain` and custom ones like `jsAndJvmMain`.
+
+When configuring multi-platform projects manually (eg. in the CLI or in Gradle without the Kotlin Gradle Plugin)
+source sets must declare their dependent source sets.
+Eg. in the following Kotlin plugin configuration:
+
+* `jsMain` and `jvmMain` both depend on `commonMain` (by default and transitively) and `jsAndJvmMain`;
+* `linuxX64Main` only depends on `commonMain`.
+
+```kotlin
+kotlin { // Kotlin plugin configuration
+ jvm()
+ js()
+ linuxX64()
+
+ sourceSets {
+ val commonMain by getting {}
+ val jvmAndJsSecondCommonMain by creating { dependsOn(commonMain) }
+ val jvmMain by getting { dependsOn(jvmAndJsSecondCommonMain) }
+ val jsMain by getting { dependsOn(jvmAndJsSecondCommonMain) }
+ val linuxX64Main by getting { dependsOn(commonMain) }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+## Output formats
+ Dokka documents Java classes as seen in Kotlin by default, with javadoc format being the only exception.
+
+ * `html` - HTML format used by default
+ * `javadoc` - looks like JDK's Javadoc, Kotlin classes are translated to Java
+ * `gfm` - GitHub flavored markdown
+ * `jekyll` - Jekyll compatible markdown
+
+If you want to generate the documentation as seen from Java perspective, you can add the `kotlin-as-java` plugin
+to the Dokka plugins classpath, eg. in Gradle:
+
+```kotlin
+dependencies{
+ implementation("...")
+ dokkaGfmPlugin("org.jetbrains.dokka:kotlin-as-java-plugin:${dokka-version}")
+}
+```
+
+## Platforms
+
+Each Dokka source set is analyzed for a specific platform. The platform should be extracted automatically from the Kotlin plugin.
+In case of a manual source set configuration, you have to select one of the following:
+
+ * `jvm`
+ * `js`
+ * `native`
+ * `common`

+# Configuration specific to HTML format
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Dokka's HTML format requires a web server to view documentation correctly.
+This can be achieved by using the one that is build in IntelliJ or providing your own.
+If this requisite is not fulfilled Dokka with fail to load navigation pane and search bars.
+
+!!! important
+ Concepts specified below apply only to configuration of the Base Plugin (that contains HTML format)
+ and needs to be applied via pluginsConfiguration and not on the root one.
+
+## Modifying assets
+
+It is possible to change static assets that are used to generate dokka's HTML.
+Currently, user can modify:
+
+ * customAssets
+ * customStyleSheets
+
+Every file provided in those values will be applied to **every** page.
+
+Dokka uses 4 stylesheets:
+
+* `style.css` - main css file responsible for styling the page
+* `jetbrains-mono.css` - fonts used across dokka
+* `logo-styles.css` - logo styling
+* [`prism.css`](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/blob/master/plugins/base/src/main/resources/dokka/styles/prism.css) - code highlighting
+
+Also, it uses js scripts. The actual ones are [here](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/tree/master/plugins/base/src/main/resources/dokka/scripts).
+User can choose to add or override those files - stylesheets and js scripts.
+Resources will be overridden when in `pluginConfiguration` block there is a resource with the same name.
+
+## Modifying footer
+
+Dokka supports custom messages in the footer via `footerMessage` string property on base plugin configuration.
+Keep in mind that this value will be passed exactly to the output HTML, so it has to be valid and escaped correctly.
+
+## Separating inherited members
+
+By setting a boolean property `separateInheritedMembers` dokka will split inherited members (like functions, properties etc.)
+from ones declared in viewed class. Separated members will have it's own tabs on the page.
+
+## Merging declarations with name clashing
+
+By setting a boolean property `mergeImplicitExpectActualDeclarations` dokka will merge declarations that do not have `expect`/`actual` keywords but have the same fully qualified name.
+The declarations will be displayed on one page.
+By default, it is disabled. The page names of such declaration have a prefix that is the name of source set.
+
+### Examples
+In order to override a logo and style it accordingly a css file named `logo-styles.css` is needed:
+```css
+.library-name a {
+ position: relative;
+ --logo-width: 100px;
+ margin-left: calc(var(--logo-width) + 5px);
+}
+
+.library-name a::before {
+ content: '';
+ background: url("https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9d/Ubuntu_logo.svg") center no-repeat;
+ background-size: contain;
+ position: absolute;
+ width: var(--logo-width);
+ height: 50px;
+ top: -18px;
+ left: calc(-1 * var(--logo-width) - 5px);
+ /* other styles required to make your page pretty */
+}
+```
+
+
+For build system specific instructions please visit dedicated pages: [gradle](../applying/gradle.md#applying-plugins), [maven](../applying/maven.md#applying-plugins) and [cli](../applying/cli.md#configuration-options)
+
+## Custom HTML pages
+
+Templates are taken from the folder that is defined by the `templatesDir` property.
+To customize HTML output, you can use the [default template](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/blob/master/plugins/base/src/main/resources/dokka/templates) as a starting point.
+
+!!! note
+ To change page assets, you can set properties `customAssets` and `customStyleSheets`.
+ Assets are handled by Dokka itself, not FreeMaker.
+
+There is a template file with predefined name `base.ftl`. It defines general design of all pages to render.
+`base.ftl` can import another templates that can be set by user as well:
+
+* `includes/header.ftl`
+* `includes/footer.ftl`
+* `includes/page_metadata.ftl`
+* `includes/source_set_selector.ftl`.
+
+If `templatesDir` is defined, Dokka will find a template file there.
+If the file is not found, a default one will be used.
+
+Variables given below are available to the template:
+
+* `${pageName}` - the page name
+* `${footerMessage}` - text that is set by the `footerMessage` property
+* `${sourceSets}` - a nullable list of source sets, only for multi-platform pages. Each source set has `name`, `platfrom` and `filter` properties.
+
+Also, Dokka-defined [directives](https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/ref_directive_userDefined.html) can be used:
+
+* `<@content/>` - main content
+* `<@resources/>` - scripts, stylesheets
+* `<@version/>` - version ([versioning-plugin](../plugins/versioning-plugin.md) will replace this with a version navigator)
+* `<@template_cmd name="...""> ...</@template_cmd>` - is used for variables that depend on the root project (such `pathToRoot`, `projectName`). They are available only inside the directive. This is processed by a multi-module task that assembles partial outputs from modules.
+ Example:
+ ```
+ <@template_cmd name="projectName">
+ <span>${projectName}</span>
+ </@template_cmd>
+ ```

+# Versioning plugin
+
+Versioning plugin aims to provide users with ability to create a versioned documentation.
+Therefore, users of the documentation can view different versions of the documentation by going to the main page and change versions.
+
+Versioning can be configured using:
+
+* version - a string value representing a version that should be displayed in the dropdown.
+* olderVersionsDir - an optional file that represents the parent directory containing folders with previous Dokka outputs.
+* olderVersions - an optional list of directories, each containing a previous Dokka output. Used after the contents of
+ `olderVersionsDir`
+ (if it's specified).
+* versionsOrdering - an optional list of strings representing the ordering of versions that should be visible.
+ By default, Dokka will try to use semantic versioning to create such ordering.
+* renderVersionsNavigationOnAllPages - a bool value.
+ By default, Dokka renders a versions navigation on all pages.
+
+!!! note
+ You should enable the plugin in all submodules to render a versions navigation on all pages.
+
+Above configuration should be placed under the `pluginsConfiguration` block specific for your build tool.
+Configuration object is named `org.jetbrains.dokka.versioning.VersioningConfiguration`.
+
+
+### Directory structure required
+
+If you pass previous versions using `olderVersionsDir`, a particular directory structure is required:
+
+```
+.
+└── older_versions_dir
+ └── 1.4.10
+ ├── <dokka output>
+ └── 1.4.20
+ ├── <dokka output>
+ ...
+```
+
+As can be seen on the diagram, `olderVersionsDir` should be a parent directory of previous output directories.
+
+This can be avoided by manually specifying each past output directory with `olderVersions`, or they can be used
+together.
+
+`olderVersions` directories need to contain a past Dokka output. For the above example, you would pass
+`older_versions_dir/1.4.10, older_versions_dir/1.4.20`.
+
+!!! note
+ The previously documentations should be generated with the versioning plugin.
+
+### Example
+
+Versioning plugin in gradle can be configured in 2 ways:
+
+* by manually adding the versioning plugin to classpath and using `pluginsConfiguration`
+
+* by using `pluginsMapConfiguration` and adding the configuration serialized as json under the `org.jetbrains.dokka.versioning.VersioningPlugin` key.
+
+
+If you choose the first method the configuration may look like this:
+
+```kotlin
+buildscript {
+ dependencies {
+ classpath("org.jetbrains.dokka:versioning-plugin:<dokka_version>")
+ }
+}
+
+...
+
+pluginConfiguration<org.jetbrains.dokka.versioning.VersioningPlugin, org.jetbrains.dokka.versioning.VersioningConfiguration> {
+ version = "1.0"
+ olderVersionsDir = projectDir.resolve("olderVersionsDir")
+}
+```
+
+Alternatively, without adding plugin to classpath:
+
+```kotlin
+pluginsMapConfiguration.set(mapOf("org.jetbrains.dokka.versioning.VersioningPlugin" to """{ "version": "1.0" }"""))
+```
+
+Please consult the [Gradle documentation](../applying/gradle.md#applying-plugins) for more information about configuring Dokka with this build tool.
+
+Please see the [Dokka Gradle versioning multi modules example project](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/tree/master/examples/gradle/dokka-versioning-multimodule-example).
+
+Also see the [generated documentation](https://Kotlin.github.io/dokka/examples/dokka-versioning-multimodule-example/htmlMultiModule).
