Hi Cary,

Glad to hear the project is still being developed.  I've made a few changes but they're pretty minor (template bug fixes, etc).

I'm thinking of adding a parser for cookbook attribute files, since a lot of folks (myself included) don't document attributes in the cookbook metadata.

Like it, encouraging documentation of attributes in metadata.rb is a good thing :-)
 

Does this sound useful to the community or am I simply helping to propagate a bad practice?  :)

(I would potentially extend this to node.set() in recipes once we get our Chef 11 on.)

Looking forward to the next yard-chef release!

Hey Steve,

Just a quick note to let you know that we have not abandoned this project.  Just putting some finishing touches on it (like support for README.md) and hope to have the first version out soon.  We will make a post to this mailing list when it is ready to go.  Please feel free to make pull requests and/or open up new issues on this project as you find them.

Hope it works for ya'!

-Cary Penniman

Hi everybody,

I was thinking about how to ensure that people are documenting their cookbooks and came across a YARD Chef plugin that the folks at Rightscale were working on (and may have abandoned?) about a year ago.

Anyway, it almost pretty much was in a working state so I gave it an extra push and now have it serving documentation sites off of a Chef repository and generating documentation coverage statistics.

So, if you haven't solved this problem for yourself already, take a look:


If you _have_ solved this problem already in a much more awesome way, I'd love to hear about it and hopefully follow your example!
