API doc generator in markdown

I didnt want to use sphinx and reStructuredText syntax when the rest of the documentation is in markdown. I also dont like reStructuredText syntax. Long story short, I ended up creating my own library to auto-generate markdown docs per module using python inspect module.

Currently only Google formatted docstrings are supported. Feel free to submit a PR for extending to other formats.

Usage

from md_autogen import MarkdownAPIGenerator, to_md_file

source_folder = 'src'
github_link = 'https://github.com/raghakot/mkdocs-apidocs/blob/master'
mk_gen = MarkdownAPIGenerator(source_folder, github_link)

import mymodule
md_text = mk_gen.module2md(mymodule)
to_md_file(md_text, mymodule.__name__, "docs")

For usage on a real project, with MkDocs, see: https://github.com/raghakot/keras-vis/tree/master/docs

The autogenerated doc on that project: https://raghakot.github.io/keras-vis/
