Update esdoc dependency #5

Open sateffen opened 7 years ago

Hey,

I've got a silly problem, and I can't come up with a simple solution: I'm using grunt-esdoc to build my documentation, but I want to use esdoc 0.5 instead of 0.4.

The dependency of this package is esdoc ^0.4.6 which should install 0.5, but because of some reason yarn and npm keep installing esdoc 0.4.8, not the current version 0.5.2, and I don't see the reason (maybe it's too obvious to see, don't know...)

Setting a dependency to esdoc 0.5.2 in my own project installs the new version, but your plugin still loads the local version 0.4.8 from its own node_modules.

Is there a chance for updating this package to use esdoc 0.5.2? Would be a great help!

Will do this, yes

@cleversoap any update on this? @vanruesc provided some merge-requests, modernizing the codebase and helping out.

The update to esdoc 1.0 is pretty huge, because with that the system allows the use of plugins to parse new es6 features.

@cleversoap I'd gladly help you with maintaining this repository if you're too busy right now.

In my eyes, ESDoc is the only JavaScript documentation tool that isn't terrible. It's a shame that this grunt plugin appears to be dead. The alternative would be to launch a new grunt plugin with a different name, but that just doesn't seem right.

In the meantime, @vanruesc/grunt-esdoc may help those in need.
