I’m generating docs as a deliverable for a client, and I want them to be hosted somewhere so that I can automate the process. I just need them to be behind a password/login. Has anyone here ever done that with Elixir docs?

ex_doc generates html pages for you. It should be easy enough to set them up behind some kind of login. If you are using some sort of CI/CD, you should be able to automatically build the documentation and upload it to wherever you need to on a successful build release.

Appreciated, but I’ll just bill the client for S3 or whatever. I feel like there’s an interesting opportunity to build a simple service that’s like hex docs for private repos.

No, I mean like generating a doc entry for specific test files. It seems silly, but I have to document test cases for a project, and I don’t want to have to use another tool or maintain a list of tests somewhere by hand.

It turns out that using File.read!("test path goes here") Code.string_to_quoted! produces the AST and is perfectly usable for getting the moduledoc and test names. I’m putting together a package, and will share ti once I have it working.
