# Class ParsedJavadocDocstring

source code

An encoded version of a Javadoc docstring. Since Javadoc is a fairly simple markup language, we don't do any processing in advance; instead, we wait to split fields or resolve crossreference links until we need to.

Instance Methods | [hide private]
__init__(self, docstring, errors=None) Create a new `ParsedJavadocDocstring`. | source code
_check_links(self, errors) Make sure that all @{link}s are valid. | source code
`string` |
to_plaintext(self, docstring_linker, **options) Translate this docstring to plaintext. | source code
(ParsedDocstring, `bool`) |
summary(self) Returns: A pair consisting of a short summary of this docstring and a boolean value indicating whether there is further documentation in addition to the summary. | source code
Inherited from `ParsedDocstring`: `__add__`, `concatenate`, `index_terms`, `to_latex`
Field Splitting
`(ParsedDocstring, list of Field)` |
split_fields(self, errors=None) Split this docstring into its body and its fields. | source code
HTML Output
`string` |
to_html(self, docstring_linker, **options) Translate this docstring to HTML. | source code

Method Details | [hide private]

### __init__(self, docstring, errors=None) (Constructor) | source code
Create a new `ParsedJavadocDocstring`. Parameters: `docstring` (`string`) - The docstring that should be used to construct this `ParsedJavadocDocstring`. `errors` (`list` of ParseError) - A list where any errors generated during parsing will be stored. If no list is given, then all errors are ignored.

### split_fields(self, errors=None) | source code
Split this docstring into its body and its fields. Parameters: `errors` - A list where any errors generated during splitting will be stored. If no list is specified, then errors will be ignored. Returns: `(ParsedDocstring, list of Field)` A tuple `(body, fields)`, where `body` is the main body of this docstring, and `fields` is a list of its fields. If the resulting body is empty, return `None` for the body. Overrides: ParsedDocstring.split_fields (inherited documentation)

### to_html(self, docstring_linker, **options) | source code
Translate this docstring to HTML. Parameters: `docstring_linker` - An HTML translator for crossreference links into and out of the docstring. `options` - Any extra options for the output. Unknown options are ignored. Returns: `string` An HTML fragment that encodes this docstring. Overrides: ParsedDocstring.to_html (inherited documentation)

### _check_links(self, errors) | source code
Make sure that all @{link}s are valid. We need a separate method for ths because we want to do this at parse time, not html output time. Any errors found are appended to `errors`.

### to_plaintext(self, docstring_linker, **options) | source code
Translate this docstring to plaintext. Parameters: `docstring_linker` - A plaintext translator for crossreference links into and out of the docstring. `options` - Any extra options for the output. Unknown options are ignored. Returns: `string` A plaintext fragment that encodes this docstring. Overrides: ParsedDocstring.to_plaintext (inherited documentation)

### summary(self) | source code
Returns: (ParsedDocstring, `bool`) A pair consisting of a short summary of this docstring and a boolean value indicating whether there is further documentation in addition to the summary. Typically, the summary consists of the first sentence of the docstring. Overrides: ParsedDocstring.summary (inherited documentation)

Class Variable Details | [hide private]

  ### _ARG_FIELDS A list of the fields that take arguments. Since Javadoc doesn't mark arguments in any special way, we must consult this list to decide whether the first word of a field is an argument or not. Value:
      ['group',
       'variable',
       'var',
       'type',
       'cvariable',
       'cvar',
       'ivariable',
       'ivar',
      ...

  ### _LINK_RE A regular expression used to process Javadoc inline tags. Value:
      re.compile(r'\{@link(?:plain)?\s+([\w#\.]+)(?:\([^\)]*\))?(\s+.*)?\}')
