rustdoc-stripper

rustdoc-stripper is a tool used to remove rustdoc comments from your code and save them in a comments.cmts file if you want to regenerate them.

Options

Available options for rustdoc-stripper are:

• -h | --help : Displays this help
• -s | --strip : Strips the current folder files and create a file with rustdoc information (comments.cmts by default)
• -g | --regenerate : Recreate files with rustdoc comments from reading rustdoc information file (comments.cmts by default)
• -n | --no-file-output : Display rustdoc information directly on stdout
• -i | --ignore [filename]: Ignore the specified file, can be repeated as much as needed, only used when stripping files, ignored otherwise
• -d | --dir [directory] : Specify a directory path to work on, optional
• -v | --verbose : Activate verbose mode
• -f | --force : Remove confirmation demands
• -m | --ignore-macros : macros in hierarchy will be ignored (so only macros with doc comments will appear in the comments file)
• -o | --comment-file : specify the file within you want to save rustdoc information

By default, rustdoc is run with -s option:

Shell ./rustdoc-stripper -s

IMPORTANT: Only files ending with '.rs' will be stripped/regenerated.

Ignore doc-comment

You can prevent a doc comment to be stripped by prepending it by // rustdoc-stripper-ignore-next.

Example:

rust // rustdoc-stripper-ignore-next /// existing comment pub unsafe fn new() -> Foo {}
