#selfdoc.extractors

#selfdoc.extractors

Language extractor registry and auto-detection.

#SourceEntry

A resolved source path with its language and extractor.

#detect_language

python
def detect_language(dir_path: str) -> str | None

Auto-detect the project language from marker files in dir_path.

Tries Python first, then Go, then TypeScript (matching cli.py priority). Returns the extractor name or None if no language is detected.

#detect_languages

python
def detect_languages(dir_path: str) -> list[dict[str, str]]

Detect ALL languages present in a directory.

Unlike detect_language which returns only the first match, this returns all detected languages with their source paths.

Returns a list of {"path": ..., "language": ...} dicts.

#resolve_source_entries

python
def resolve_source_entries(config: dict) -> list[SourceEntry]

Resolve config source entries into SourceEntry objects.

Each source entry dict has 'path' and 'language' keys. The language is looked up in the extractor registry.

#source_paths

python
def source_paths(config: dict) -> list[str]

Extract just the source path strings from config.
