puppet-strings - Generate Puppet documentation with YARD

puppet strings <action>
puppet strings --help

Produce complete, user-friendly module documentation by using Puppet Strings. Strings uses tags and code comments, along with the source code, to generate documentation for a module's classes, defined types, functions, tasks, plans, and resource types and providers.

Puppet Strings is based on the YARD Ruby documentation tool.
