YARD

YARD is a popular Ruby documentation generation tool that is used in multiple libraries for documenting code. RubyMine helps you to work with YARD tags and documentation in various ways, for example, you can view the documentation using Quick Documentation Lookup, create missing YARD tags, and check the validity of a YARD tag. RubyMine can also utilize the YARD annotations for better code insight, it uses them to help suggest more relevant results in code completion and parameter hints for methods. In this blog post, we’ll remind ourselves about the existing capabilities available in RubyMine

Hello guys, Not long ago we wrote about the coming YARD support in RubyMine, and today it's time to share some more with you. So, what have been done since then. First, RubyMine supports any syntax of types annotations supported by YARD. More details can be found at http://yardoc.org/features.html. You can annotate either return types or method parameters with types.

Let me show you some screenshots of all

Hello guys, A few weeks have passed since RubyMine 3.1 release and RubyMine 3.1.1 bugfix update is almost ready. However today I want to show you some new cool feature — coming YARD support (http://yardoc.org). We've received a good number of votes for this YARD and external docs support in our tracker: RUBY-5590 and RUBY-3309. And voila, your votes did the trick! Now let me show you what we are working on! First, RubyMine understands YARD tag annotations syntax in ruby comments as well as in plain rdoc files. Then, RubyMine is smart enough to extract type annotations from the YARD annotat
