docfx - v2.61.0

Published by yufeih over 1 year ago

.NET 7.0 and C# 8, 9, 10, 11

This release adds support for .NET 7 and C# 8, 9, 10, 11. Docfx can now generate API docs for .NET 7 projects supporting all the latest C# language features including:

Nullable reference types
Default interface members
Init-only setters
Record types
Record struct
Checked user defined operators
Static abstract interface members
Required modifier

Display of API names and signatures have been updated to be more idiomatic C#, including but not limited to:

Short familiar type names such as string, int
? for nullable structs and () for tuples

Markdown engine and custom markdown extensions

Markdig has been changed to be the default and recommended markdown engine in docfx. At the same time we are deprecating dfm and other markdown engines supported by docfx. Dfm markdown engine would be removed in some future releases.

To use a custom markdown extension in markdig, a ConfigureMarkdig build option is added to customize the markdig markdown pipeline:

var options = new BuildOptions
{
    // Enable custom markdown extensions here
    ConfigureMarkdig = pipeline => pipeline.UseCitations(),
}

await Docset.Build("docfx.json", options);

Client-side redirection

The new redirect_url metadata redirects a page to a new URL. To setup redirection for a markdown article, remove all markdown content and replace it with:

---
redirect_url: <URL to redirect to>
---

Known Issues

Default nullable enum values displayed as numbers instead of enums https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/issues/66514
Nullable reference type in the parameters table missing ?.
