Tool for generating tested code snippets for Mintlify docs.
## How It Works
1. Write testable Python in `/testers/*.py` with `# @sniptest` comments
2. Pre-commit hook runs `python sniptest/generate.py`
3. Generated `.mdx` files appear in `/snippets/`
4. Docs import from `/snippets/` - never write inline code blocks
5. CI/CD tests all `/testers/*.py` for validity
## Syntax
```python
# @sniptest filename=example.py
# @sniptest highlight=3-5,8
# @sniptest show=1-15
from notte_sdk import NotteClient
client = NotteClient()
# code here...
# Hidden below (via show=1-15)
if __name__ == "__main__":
test()
```
## Decorators
| Decorator | Example | Output |
|-----------|---------|--------|
| `filename` | `filename=example.py` | Filename in header |
| `highlight` | `highlight=1-2,5` | `highlight={1-2,5}` |
| `focus` | `focus=2,4-5` | `focus={2,4-5}` |
| `lines` | `lines=true` | Show line numbers |
| `expandable` | `expandable=true` | Collapsible block |
| `wrap` | `wrap=true` | Wrap long lines |
| `icon` | `icon=rocket` | `icon="rocket"` |
| `show` | `show=5` or `show=5-20` | Pre-shave lines (single = that line only) |
### Line Number Syntax
| Type | Example | Means |
|------|---------|-------|
| Single | `5` | Line 5 |
| Range | `1-5` | Lines 1 through 5 |
| Mixed | `1-2,5,8-10` | Lines 1, 2, 5, 8, 9, 10 |
Works for `highlight` and `focus`. The `show` decorator only supports single range or single number.
### Processing Order
All line numbers refer to the **original code** (after `# @sniptest` comments are stripped).
`show` shaves lines AND remaps `highlight`/`focus` to match:
```
# @sniptest show=3-5
# @sniptest highlight=4-5
Original: Output:
1: line1 (removed)
2: line2 (removed)
3: line3 → 1: line3
4: line4 → 2: line4 ← highlighted
5: line5 → 3: line5 ← highlighted
Result: highlight={2-3}
```
Lines outside `show` range are removed from `highlight`/`focus`.
## Commands
```bash
python sniptest/generate.py # Generate all
python sniptest/generate.py --dry-run # Preview
python sniptest/generate.py --clean # Remove orphans
python sniptest/generate.py --verbose # Show unchanged
```
## Generated Header
```mdx
{/* Auto-generated mdx file. Do not edit! */}
{/* @sniptest testers/agents/example.py */}
```
## Using in Docs
```mdx
import Example from '/snippets/agents/example.mdx';
<Example />
```
## No Inline Code
Never write code blocks directly in MDX. Always import from `/snippets/`.
