I need your assistance in creating these two forms of documentation for this project:

  1. Component Hierarchy Tree: A simple tree diagram that represents the nesting of components. This can be done using indented lists or any tree diagram tool.

  2. Props & State Table: Document each component with a table listing its props and state, including types and descriptions. This is essential for TypeScript projects to ensure type safety and clarity.


Codeium at 11:31 pm, Jun 15, 2024

Based on the provided context, I can help you outline a basic structure for both the Component Hierarchy Tree and the Props & State Table. However, I'll need you to fill in or confirm specifics, as my knowledge of the entire component structure and all props and state is limited.

1. Component Hierarchy Tree

The component hierarchy tree represents the nesting of components. Here's a simple indented list representing the hierarchy based on the context provided:

HandTerm
├── Output
├── TerminalGame
│   ├── ScrollingTextLayer
│   ├── ParallaxLayer
│   ├── Hero
│   └── Zombie4
└── NextCharsDisplay
└── XtermAdapter
└── WebCam (Referenced in code, but hierarchy position is unclear)

Note: The actual tree for your project may have more components or different nesting. Update this structure to accurately reflect your project.

2. Props & State Table

For the props and state table, you can create a table for each component that lists its props and state with types and descriptions. Here's a template and example based on the context provided:

HandTerm Component

Type Name Data Type Description
Prop terminalWidth number The width of the terminal set by the parent.
State commandLine string Input command line text.
State heroAction ActionType Current action of the hero character.
... ... ... ...

TerminalGame Component

Type Name Data Type Description
Prop canvasHeight number The height of the canvas used in the game.
Prop heroActionType ActionType Current action of the hero character.
... ... ... ...

Other Components

Create similar tables for Output, NextCharsDisplay, XtermAdapter, Hero, Zombie4, and any other components that have props and/or state.

Please note that you'll need to complete these tables with the actual props and state from your components. The tables above are just starting points based on the limited context provided. Make sure to go through each component file to document all the props and state variables.


User at 10:12 am, Jun 16, 2024

Are there any command-line tools that can output the component hierarchy and props and state tables?


Codeium at 10:13 am, Jun 16, 2024

Yes, there are several command-line tools that can help analyze and output the component hierarchy and props and state tables for React applications. Here are a few that might be useful for your TypeScript project:

  1. React Docgen: This tool can parse your React components and extract information like props, descriptions, and default values. It supports TypeScript and can generate documentation in various formats.

    Installation:

    npm install -g react-docgen

    Usage:

    react-docgen src/components/MyComponent.tsx -o component-docs.json

    This will output documentation for MyComponent.tsx to a JSON file.

  2. TypeDoc: TypeDoc is a documentation generator for TypeScript projects. It can create comprehensive documentation by examining your TypeScript source files.

    Installation:

    npm install --save-dev typedoc

    Usage:

    npx typedoc --out docs src

    This command will generate documentation for your entire src directory and output it to the docs folder.

  3. React Styleguidist: This tool provides a live style guide for your components, showing the component hierarchy, props, and examples. It can parse both TypeScript and PropTypes.

    Installation:

    npm install --save-dev react-styleguidist

    Usage:

    npx styleguidist server

    This will start a development server that displays a style guide based on your components.

  4. Storybook: While not strictly a command-line tool, Storybook acts as an interactive UI component explorer. It can show your component hierarchy and allows you to document props as well.

    Installation:

    npx sb init

    Usage:

    npm run storybook

    This will start the Storybook interface where you can explore and document your components.

Each of these tools requires some configuration to match your project setup. They may also need additional plugins or settings to fully support TypeScript. Be sure to check the documentation for each tool to configure it for your project's needs.

I am in PowerShell on windows and after installing react-docgen I get this error:

🕐[10:37:11] react-docgen src/* -o component-docs.json
react-docgen: The term 'react-docgen' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program.
Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

Codeium at 10:45 am, Jun 16, 2024

The error message indicates that PowerShell cannot find the react-docgen command. This could be due to a few reasons:

  1. Global Installation Not in PATH: Even though you've installed react-docgen globally, it might not be added to the PATH environment variable.

  2. Local Installation: If you've installed react-docgen locally, you should run it through npx or by specifying the full path to the executable in the node_modules/.bin/ directory.

Here are some steps to resolve the issue:

Using npx

If you have npx installed (it comes with npm 5.2+), you can run react-docgen without installing it globally:

npx react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs

Install Locally and Run

You can install react-docgen locally and run it using a script defined in your package.json:

npm install --save-dev react-docgen

Add a script in your package.json:

"scripts": {
  "docgen": "react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs"
}

Run the script:

npm run docgen

Check PATH After Global Installation

If you installed react-docgen globally and want to keep using it that way, you should check that the global npm bin directory is in your PATH.

Find out where global npm executables are stored:

npm bin -g

Ensure that the directory output by the above command is included in your PATH environment variable. If it's not, you can add it manually.

To add it to PATH temporarily, you can use:

$env:PATH += ";C:\path\to\your\global\npm\bin"

Replace C:\path\to\your\global\npm\bin with the actual path you got from npm bin -g.

To add it permanently, you'll need to edit your environment variables through the Windows system settings.

Once you've resolved the PATH issue, try running react-docgen again. If you continue to encounter problems, using the local method with npx or npm scripts is a reliable alternative.

It seems that the react-docgen executable isn't being recognized correctly by npx. This could be due to several reasons, including how npx resolves packages or a potential issue with the package itself.

Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:

Try Running with a Specific Package Version

Sometimes, specifying the package version explicitly can help npx resolve the correct executable:

npx react-docgen@latest src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs

Install react-docgen Locally

Instead of using npx or a global installation, try installing react-docgen locally in your project:

npm install --save-dev react-docgen

After installing it locally, you can run the command using npx (which will look for the local version first):

npx react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs

Or add it as a script in your package.json:

"scripts": {
  "generate-docs": "react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs"
}

And then run that script:

npm run generate-docs

Check Your Shell Wildcard Expansion

The use of the wildcard * in src/components/* might not be working as expected in PowerShell. You can try specifying the files explicitly or using another form of globbing, depending on how your shell expands file paths.

Verify Your Node and npm Configuration

Since you are using nvm on Windows, make sure that the nvm is configured correctly and that you are using the right Node.js version. You can check the current Node.js and npm versions with:

node -v
npm -v

Ensure that the versions match the ones you expect to use for your project. If you've recently switched Node.js versions with nvm, you might need to reinstall global packages.

Check for Issues with npx

There may be an issue with npx itself. You can try updating npm (which includes npx) to the latest version:

npm install -g npm

Review the Debug Log

The debug log you provided suggests an issue with resolving the executable. If none of the above steps work, you may want to search for similar issues with npx and react-docgen or consider filing an issue on the react-docgen repository or relevant forums for further assistance.


User at 10:55 am, Jun 16, 2024

You said to use this:

npm install --save-dev react-docgen

But I am using Yarn. Could that be what is complicating the installation of react-docgen?


Codeium at 10:55 am, Jun 16, 2024

Yes, if you're using Yarn, you should use Yarn commands to install packages to ensure compatibility with your project's package manager.

To install react-docgen locally with Yarn, use the following command:

yarn add --dev react-docgen

After installing it, you can use yarn to run the react-docgen command:

yarn react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs

Alternatively, you can add a script to your package.json like this:

"scripts": {
  "generate-docs": "react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs"
}

And then run the script with Yarn:

yarn generate-docs

Using Yarn consistently for your package management will avoid issues that might arise from mixing package managers, such as npm and Yarn, which maintain separate lock files and have different installation strategies.

After installing, I am still getting this type of error:

🕐[10:56:19] yarn react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs
yarn run v1.22.19
warning ..\..\..\package.json: No license field
error Command "react-docgen" not found.

Codeium at 10:59 am, Jun 16, 2024

The error "Command 'react-docgen' not found" suggests that Yarn is unable to locate the react-docgen command in the local node_modules/.bin/ directory where Yarn installs executable commands from dependencies.

Here are a few things to check and try:

  1. Verify Local Installation: Make sure react-docgen is installed in your project's node_modules directory. You should find it under node_modules/.bin/.

  2. Check node_modules/.bin/: If you have react-docgen installed, check the node_modules/.bin/ directory to see if the react-docgen executable is present there.

  3. Use yarn bin to Check Executable Path: You can use yarn bin to find the exact path to the Yarn bin directory where executables are located.

    Run:

    yarn bin

    This will give you the path to the bin directory. Check if react-docgen is there.

  4. Run the Script Using yarn run: If you have defined a script in your package.json to run react-docgen, make sure to use yarn run to execute it:

    "scripts": {
      "generate-docs": "react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs"
    }

    Then run it with:

    yarn run generate-docs
  5. Check Yarn Version: In Yarn 1.x, you may need to run yarn before running yarn run to ensure all executables are properly linked.

  6. Check for node_modules Caching: If you switched between npm and Yarn, there might be caching issues. Try deleting the node_modules directory and the Yarn lock file (yarn.lock), and then reinstall your dependencies with:

    yarn install
  7. Check package.json for Dependencies: Make sure react-docgen is listed in the devDependencies of your package.json file after you've installed it.

  8. File System Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to execute files in the node_modules/.bin/ directory.

If you've tried all of the above and the issue persists, it could be a more complex problem with your Yarn setup or the way the react-docgen package is installed. It might be worth checking the Yarn logs or running Yarn with the --verbose flag for more detailed output that could help diagnose the issue.

I do not see react-docgen in node_modules/.bin/

Codeium at 11:09 am, Jun 16, 2024

If react-docgen is not in the node_modules/.bin/ directory, it seems like the installation did not succeed or the package does not provide a binary executable under that name. Here's what you can do:

  1. Double-check Installation: Make sure you've installed react-docgen correctly with Yarn by running:

    yarn add --dev react-docgen

    After installation, check if react-docgen appears in the devDependencies section of your package.json.

  2. Clear Yarn Cache: There may be a problem with your Yarn cache. Clear it with:

    yarn cache clean

    And then try installing react-docgen again.

  3. Manual Verification: Manually verify if react-docgen is inside the node_modules/react-docgen directory after you've attempted to install it.

  4. Check for Errors: Pay attention to any error messages that appear during installation, as they may indicate what went wrong. If an error mentions missing write permissions, you may need to adjust permissions for your project directory.

  5. Use a Different Approach: Since you're having trouble with the command-line utility, consider using the react-docgen API directly in a Node.js script as an alternative.

    Here's a simple example of how you could use the react-docgen API in a Node script:

    const fs = require('fs');
    const path = require('path');
    const reactDocgen = require('react-docgen');
    
    const componentsDir = path.join(__dirname, 'src/components');
    const outputDir = path.join(__dirname, 'component-docs');
    
    fs.readdir(componentsDir, (err, files) => {
      files.forEach(file => {
        const filePath = path.join(componentsDir, file);
        const source = fs.readFileSync(filePath);
        const componentInfo = reactDocgen.parse(source);
    
        // Now you can use `componentInfo` or write it to a file
        const outputFilePath = path.join(outputDir, `${file}.json`);
        fs.writeFileSync(outputFilePath, JSON.stringify(componentInfo, null, 2));
      });
    });

    Save this to a file, e.g., generate-docs.js, and run it with Node:

    node generate-docs.js

    Be sure to adjust the script to match your project structure and files.

  6. Seek Further Help: If none of the above solutions work, consider seeking help from the react-docgen repository by filing an issue, or check the Yarn community for similar issues.

So I am going to try your "5. Different Approach"


Codeium at 12:12 pm, Jun 16, 2024

Based on the errors you're encountering, it seems that there are permission issues on your system, as indicated by the EPERM: operation not permitted error. This might be interfering with Yarn's ability to link and create executables in node_modules/.bin/.

Before you try the different approach with the Node.js script, you could attempt to fix the permission issue:

  1. Run as Administrator: Try running your command prompt or PowerShell as an administrator and then run the Yarn add command again.

  2. Check for Locked Files: The EPERM error suggests that esbuild.exe might be in use or locked by another process, preventing Yarn from modifying it. Make sure no processes are using that file, and you can try deleting it manually and then running yarn install again.

  3. Disable Antivirus Temporarily: Sometimes antivirus software can interfere with file operations. If you have antivirus software running, try disabling it temporarily and then run the installation again.

If you still wish to proceed with the different approach using the Node.js script, remember to adjust the script to match your exact project structure and file paths. Here's the script provided earlier, slightly adjusted to be more robust:

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const reactDocgen = require('react-docgen');
const glob = require('glob');

const componentsDir = path.join(__dirname, 'src/components');
const outputDir = path.join(__dirname, 'component-docs');

// Use glob to find all component files
glob(path.join(componentsDir, '**/*.tsx'), (err, files) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error('Error finding component files:', err);
    return;
  }

  // Ensure output directory exists
  if (!fs.existsSync(outputDir)) {
    fs.mkdirSync(outputDir, { recursive: true });
  }

  files.forEach((file) => {
    const source = fs.readFileSync(file, 'utf8');
    try {
      const componentInfo = reactDocgen.parse(source);
      const outputFilePath = path.join(outputDir, `${path.basename(file, '.tsx')}.json`);
      fs.writeFileSync(outputFilePath, JSON.stringify(componentInfo, null, 2));
      console.log(`Generated docs for ${file}`);
    } catch (parseError) {
      console.error(`Error parsing ${file}:`, parseError);
    }
  });
});

Save this script to a file in the root of your project, e.g., generate-docs.js. Make sure to install glob which helps with file path patterns:

yarn add glob --dev

Then run the script with Node.js:

node generate-docs.js

This script will create a JSON file with the component documentation for each .tsx file in your src/components directory. Adjust the componentsDir and outputDir variables as needed to match your project's directory structure.

The EPERM: operation not permitted error while running Yarn as an administrator suggests that the file it's trying to modify is locked or inaccessible due to system permissions, even when running with elevated privileges. Here are some additional steps you can try:

  1. Check if the File is in Use: Ensure that the file rollup.win32-x64-msvc.node is not being used by another process. You can check this using the Resource Monitor or any other process explorer tool.

  2. Restart Your Machine: Sometimes, simply restarting your computer can resolve issues with locked files.

  3. Manually Remove the File: Navigate to the file path C:\Users\xgenx\source\repos\handex-react\node_modules\@rollup\rollup-win32-x64-msvc\ and try to manually delete the rollup.win32-x64-msvc.node file. After removing it, try running yarn install again.

  4. Manually Remove node_modules and Reinstall: If the above doesn't work, you can try manually deleting the entire node_modules directory and then running yarn install to reinstall all packages:

    Remove-Item -Recurse -Force node_modules
    yarn install
  5. Exclude the Directory from Antivirus Scanning: Some antivirus software may lock files during scanning, which can interfere with Yarn's operations. Try adding an exclusion for your project directory in your antivirus settings and then run the install command again.

  6. Check for File System Errors: There may be file system errors on your disk. You can use the chkdsk utility to check for and repair file system errors. Open the Command Prompt as an administrator and run:

    chkdsk /f /r

    Then restart your computer and try the installation again.

  7. Run Yarn with Verbose Logging: Running Yarn with verbose logging might provide additional insights into what's going wrong:

    yarn install --verbose

If you continue to experience issues, it may be worth considering creating a new clone of the repository in a different directory or on a different machine to see if the problem persists.

Given the persistent issues with package installation, using the Node.js script approach seems to be a viable alternative to generate your component documentation without relying on the react-docgen executable. If you decide to go this route, follow the instructions provided in the previous message to run the generate-docs.js script.

Maybe it was because the website was running.

Now I get this:

It looks like stopping the website allowed Yarn to complete the installation without any file locking issues. The output indicates that the installation has now been successful. The "Done in 20.11s." message at the end suggests that all packages, including react-docgen, should now be installed correctly.

You can now try to generate your component documentation with react-docgen. Since it was not appearing in the node_modules/.bin/ directory previously, please verify its presence now:

ls .\node_modules\.bin\*docgen*.*

If react-docgen is present, you can attempt to run it again using Yarn:

yarn react-docgen src/components/* --out-dir ./component-docs

Or, if you have added a script to your package.json to run react-docgen, you can execute that script with:

yarn run generate-docs

If you still encounter issues with the react-docgen command, you have the option to use the script approach that I outlined earlier, which directly uses the react-docgen API in a Node.js script to generate documentation.

Codeium at 12:29 pm, Jun 16, 2024

Given that react-docgen still isn't appearing in node_modules/.bin/ and the Yarn command isn't recognizing it, it may be worth trying a clean installation. Before you do that, let's make sure we've covered all bases:

  1. Verify react-docgen is in package.json: Check your package.json file to ensure that react-docgen is listed under devDependencies after running yarn add --dev react-docgen.

  2. Clear Yarn Cache: Clearing the Yarn cache can sometimes resolve strange installation issues.

    yarn cache clean
  3. Remove node_modules and yarn.lock: Deleting the node_modules directory and yarn.lock file can help ensure a fresh installation.

    Remove-Item -Recurse -Force node_modules
    Remove-Item yarn.lock
  4. Reinstall Packages: After clearing the cache and removing the directories, try installing your packages again.

    yarn install
  5. Check for react-docgen Binaries: After installation, check again for the presence of react-docgen in node_modules/.bin/.

If you've gone through these steps and react-docgen is still not found, you may want to consider the following alternatives:

  • Use a Different Machine or Environment: If possible, try installing the project on a different machine or environment to see if the issue is specific to your current setup.

  • Use the Node.js Script Approach: As mentioned earlier, you can use the react-docgen API directly in a Node.js script to generate your documentation. This bypasses the need for the command-line tool.

  • Contact Yarn or react-docgen Support: There might be an issue with Yarn's handling of binaries or a problem with the react-docgen package itself. Consider reaching out to the maintainers for support.

  • Consider Using npm: If Yarn continues to be problematic, you could try switching to npm just for the sake of running react-docgen. However, this is not recommended if you're using Yarn for the rest of your project, as it could lead to inconsistencies.

If you decide to proceed with a clean installation, follow the steps above. If the issue persists, you may want to try the Node.js script as a reliable workaround.

will yarn install install it as a local dev-dependency? Does yarn allow global installs?


Codeium at 12:31 pm, Jun 16, 2024

yarn install will install all the dependencies listed in your package.json file, including devDependencies. It installs the packages locally within your project's node_modules directory, not globally.

Yarn does allow global installs, but they are generally discouraged in favor of local installs, especially for project-specific tools. To install a package globally using Yarn, you would use the yarn global add command. Here's how you would do it:

yarn global add package-name

However, for tools like react-docgen that are used within the scope of a project, it is better to install them locally as devDependencies. This ensures that anyone else working on the project has access to the same tools and versions, which helps maintain a consistent development environment.

To install react-docgen as a local dev-dependency, you should use:

yarn add --dev react-docgen

This command adds react-docgen to your devDependencies in your package.json and installs it in your local node_modules directory. If react-docgen is still not found after running this command, then there may be an issue with the package, Yarn's installation process, or your system's configuration. If that's the case, using the Node.js script approach to directly use the react-docgen API, as previously discussed, might be the best alternative.

Codeium at 12:32 pm, Jun 16, 2024

Based on your package.json, react-docgen is indeed listed under devDependencies, which means running yarn install should install it locally within your project's node_modules directory.

After running yarn install, react-docgen should be installed, and you should be able to find the executable in the node_modules/.bin/ directory.

If after installation you cannot find react-docgen in node_modules/.bin/ or if you're still having issues running the react-docgen command, you might want to try the Node.js script approach that directly utilizes the react-docgen API, as previously discussed.

If you run into any more issues or need further assistance, feel free to ask.

The installation of your packages seems to have completed successfully with the message "Done in 133.45s." However, the fact that you're still getting "error Command 'react-docgen' not found" indicates that Yarn is not recognizing the react-docgen command.

Since we've confirmed that react-docgen is in your package.json and you've run yarn install, let's try a couple more things:

  1. Manually Verify the react-docgen Installation: Manually check if the react-docgen package has been installed by looking in the node_modules/react-docgen directory within your project. There should be a package folder there if it was installed correctly.

  2. Check the .bin Directory Again: Even though you've checked before, let's verify once more if the react-docgen binary is present in node_modules/.bin/ after the fresh install.

    ls .\node_modules\.bin\*docgen*.*
  3. Check the Yarn Lock File: A new yarn.lock file should have been generated. You can open this file and search for react-docgen to confirm it is included there.

If react-docgen is installed and still not recognized, it might be an environment issue or a problem with the Yarn setup on your system. As a next step, I recommend using the Node.js script approach to call react-docgen directly from the installed package without relying on the Yarn command.

Here's a basic Node.js script which you can save as generate-docs.js and run with Node:

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const reactDocgen = require('react-docgen');
const glob = require('glob');

const componentsDir = path.join(__dirname, 'src/components');
const outputDir = path.join(__dirname, 'component-docs');

// Create the output directory if it doesn't exist
if (!fs.existsSync(outputDir)) {
  fs.mkdirSync(outputDir, { recursive: true });
}

// Use glob to handle file matching
glob(path.join(componentsDir, '**', '*.tsx'), (error, files) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error('Error with glob pattern:', error);
    return;
  }

  files.forEach(file => {
    const source = fs.readFileSync(file, 'utf8');
    try {
      const doc = reactDocgen.parse(source);
      const outputPath = path.join(outputDir, path.basename(file, path.extname(file)) + '.json');
      fs.writeFileSync(outputPath, JSON.stringify(doc, null, 2));
      console.log(`Documentation generated for ${file}`);
    } catch (e) {
      console.error(`Error generating documentation for ${file}:`, e);
    }
  });
});

Before running the script, make sure to install glob:

yarn add --dev glob

Then run the script using Node:

node generate-docs.js

This script will read your .tsx files in the src/components directory and generate a corresponding .json documentation file in the component-docs directory for each component. Please adjust the paths in the script if your components are located in a different directory.

The error message indicates that your Node.js environment is treating generate-docs.js as an ES module because your package.json contains "type": "module". In ES modules, the require syntax is not supported, and you need to use import instead.

You have two options to fix this:

Option 1: Rename the File Extension to .cjs

Rename your generate-docs.js file to generate-docs.cjs. This will signal to Node.js that the file should be treated as a CommonJS module, which supports the require syntax.

Option 2: Update the Script to Use ES Modules Syntax

Convert the CommonJS require statements in generate-docs.js to ES Modules import statements. Here's an updated version of your script using ES Modules syntax:

import fs from 'fs';
import path from 'path';
import reactDocgen from 'react-docgen';
import glob from 'glob';

const componentsDir = path.join(process.cwd(), 'src/components');
const outputDir = path.join(process.cwd(), 'component-docs');

// Create the output directory if it doesn't exist
if (!fs.existsSync(outputDir)) {
  fs.mkdirSync(outputDir, { recursive: true });
}

// Use glob to handle file matching
glob(path.join(componentsDir, '**', '*.tsx'), (error, files) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error('Error with glob pattern:', error);
    return;
  }

  files.forEach(file => {
    const source = fs.readFileSync(file, 'utf8');
    try {
      const doc = reactDocgen.parse(source);
      const outputPath = path.join(outputDir, path.basename(file, path.extname(file)) + '.json');
      fs.writeFileSync(outputPath, JSON.stringify(doc, null, 2));
      console.log(`Documentation generated for ${file}`);
    } catch (e) {
      console.error(`Error generating documentation for ${file}:`, e);
    }
  });
});

After updating the script, run it with Node as before:

node generate-docs.js

Choose one of these options based on your preference for module syntax and try running the script again.

The error indicates that react-docgen is an ES module, and since you're working in a CommonJS context (by using .cjs), you cannot use require() to import it. To resolve this, you will need to use dynamic import() instead.

Here's how you can modify your generate-docs.cjs script to use dynamic imports:

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const glob = require('glob');

const componentsDir = path.join(__dirname, 'src/components');
const outputDir = path.join(__dirname, 'component-docs');

// Create the output directory if it doesn't exist
if (!fs.existsSync(outputDir)) {
  fs.mkdirSync(outputDir, { recursive: true });
}

// Use glob to handle file matching
glob(path.join(componentsDir, '**', '*.tsx'), async (error, files) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error('Error with glob pattern:', error);
    return;
  }

  // Dynamically import the reactDocgen module
  const reactDocgen = await import('react-docgen');

  files.forEach(file => {
    const source = fs.readFileSync(file, 'utf8');
    try {
      const doc = reactDocgen.parse(source);
      const outputPath = path.join(outputDir, path.basename(file, path.extname(file)) + '.json');
      fs.writeFileSync(outputPath, JSON.stringify(doc, null, 2));
      console.log(`Documentation generated for ${file}`);
    } catch (e) {
      console.error(`Error generating documentation for ${file}:`, e);
    }
  });
});

In this updated script, reactDocgen is imported dynamically inside the glob callback. Note that the glob callback is now an async function to allow the use of await for dynamic import.

After updating the script, run it with Node:

node generate-docs.cjs

This should correctly import the react-docgen module and execute your documentation generation script.

The error you're seeing suggests that the glob module is not being imported correctly. Since glob is a CommonJS module, it should be correctly required with require(). However, the error message "glob is not a function" indicates that the import isn't working as expected.

Let's make sure the glob package is installed. Run the following command to install it:

yarn add --dev glob

After installing, update your generate-docs.cjs script to ensure glob is imported correctly:

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const glob = require('glob');

const componentsDir = path.join(__dirname, 'src/components');
const outputDir = path.join(__dirname, 'component-docs');

// Create the output directory if it doesn't exist
if (!fs.existsSync(outputDir)) {
  fs.mkdirSync(outputDir, { recursive: true });
}

// Use glob to handle file matching
glob(path.join(componentsDir, '**', '*.tsx'), async (error, files) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error('Error with glob pattern:', error);
    return;
  }

  const reactDocgen = await import('react-docgen');

  files.forEach(file => {
    const source = fs.readFileSync(file, 'utf8');
    try {
      const doc = reactDocgen.parse(source);
      const outputPath = path.join(outputDir, path.basename(file, path.extname(file)) + '.json');
      fs.writeFileSync(outputPath, JSON.stringify(doc, null, 2));
      console.log(`Documentation generated for ${file}`);
    } catch (e) {
      console.error(`Error generating documentation for ${file}:`, e);
    }
  });
});

Ensure that you save the script after making changes and then run the following command:

node generate-docs.cjs

This should execute the script without the previous error, provided glob is installed correctly. If the issue persists, please make sure that the glob package exists in your node_modules directory and is listed in your package.json under devDependencies.

The error message suggests that the script is still not recognizing glob as a function. This might happen if the glob module is not being imported properly or if there is a version mismatch that causes the module not to export a function.

Let's try to diagnose the issue further:

  1. Ensure glob is correctly installed: Check your node_modules directory to confirm that glob is indeed there and correctly installed.

  2. Check package.json: Make sure that glob is listed in your package.json under devDependencies.

If glob is installed and present in your package.json, let's try to adjust the import to ensure that it is used as a function. The glob module exports a function by default, so you should be able to require it as shown previously.

Here is the script with explicit function call to glob:

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const glob = require('glob');

const componentsDir = path.join(__dirname, 'src/components');
const outputDir = path.join(__dirname, 'component-docs');

// Create the output directory if it doesn't exist
if (!fs.existsSync(outputDir)) {
  fs.mkdirSync(outputDir, { recursive: true });
}

// Use glob to handle file matching
glob(path.join(componentsDir, '**/*.tsx'), async (error, files) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error('Error with glob pattern:', error);
    return;
  }

Please note the minor change in the glob call and make sure that you have changed the file extension to .cjs if you're using CommonJS modules.

Save the changes and run the script again with:

node generate-docs.cjs

If the issue persists, there might be a deeper problem with the Node.js setup or the specific versions of the packages. We may need to debug further by examining the exact contents of the glob module within your node_modules directory, or by trying the script in a different environment.

It seems there is an issue with the glob module, despite it being correctly installed and imported. The error message persists, which is unusual. Let's try another approach to ensure that the glob module is loaded properly.

We'll use the glob function directly from the imported glob module object to see if that resolves the problem. Here's how you can modify your generate-docs.cjs script:

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const globModule = require('glob');

const componentsDir = path.join(__dirname, 'src/components');
const outputDir = path.join(__dirname, 'component-docs');

// Create the output directory if it doesn't exist
if (!fs.existsSync(outputDir)) {
  fs.mkdirSync(outputDir, { recursive: true });
}

// Use glob to handle file matching
globModule(path.join(componentsDir, '**/*.tsx'), async (error, files) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error('Error with glob pattern:', error);
    return;
  }

  // Dynamically import the reactDocgen module
  const reactDocgen = await import('react-docgen');

  for (const file of files) {
    const source = fs.readFileSync(file, 'utf8');
    try {
      const doc = reactDocgen.parse(source);
      const outputPath = path.join(outputDir, path.basename(file, path.extname(file)) + '.json');
      fs.writeFileSync(outputPath, JSON.stringify(doc, null, 2));
      console.log(`Documentation generated for ${file}`);
    } catch (e) {
      console.error(`Error generating documentation for ${file}:`, e);
    }
  }
});

In the updated script, I've changed the glob import to globModule to avoid any potential naming conflicts. Please make sure to save this updated script and run it again:

node generate-docs.cjs

If this still doesn't resolve the issue, there may be a problem with the Node.js environment or the glob module itself. In such a case, you might want to try running the script in a different environment or consider reinstalling Node.js.
