Question

How to automatically generate API documentation for Rails REST controller?

Is there any example I can look into using RDoc to do this?

Answer 1

You can try apipie-rails which I created: https://github.com/Pajk/apipie-rails/

It can do more things than just generate documentation, more info on https://github.com/Pajk/apipie-rails/.

Answer 2

I found https://github.com/zipmark/rspec_api_documentation to be a really nice tool. It's driven off of rspec acceptance tests so you're writing documentation at the same time you're writing acceptance tests! Double win!
