Usage

Currently xDocs supports only markdown output, but more in pipeline. To generate markdown docs for your compositions & XRDs

# Generate markdown docs for given compositions and XRDs
crossplane-docs md [INPUT_PATH] -o [OUTPUT_FILE]

# In some cases users prefer to generate XRD docs since pipeline mode is not supported
crossplane-docs md [INPUT_PATH] -o [OUTPUT_FILE] --xrd-only

For example:

crossplane-docs md ./samples -o samples/README.md

Check README.md for the output.

Features
