Docfx not build and output other path

There are two responsibilities; before the first problem

my project hierarchy this

and I want for each project code to documentation for this i use docfx. first problem; I don't want the building code to be rebuilt. ex.

docfx ./docs/docfx.json --serve -> doing the build

second problem; I want documentation result give me another path. ex.

C:\Users\ahmet\Documentation

code

docfx docfx ./docs/docfx.json -o -C:\Users\ahmet\Documentation > not working

and my docfx.json configration

Thanks

Solution for 2 questions if you want to generate document different output path.

docfx init

_site in place of, output path as C:/Users/AhmetPC/Desktop/SourceCode

or this docfx.exe docfx.json -o C:/Users/AhmetPC/Desktop/SourceCode

it creates for us this path.

Solution

  • If you keep the default output folder _site of docfx, you can try docfx serve ./docs/_site for the first question.
