How to add examples to API documentation in Go?

问题

在Go标准库中有一些很好的可执行示例。我如何将这样的示例添加到我的API文档中?

英文:

There are some nice executable examples in the Go standard library. How can I add such an example to my own API documentation?

$ go help testfunc的输出:

> go test命令期望在与被测试的包对应的*_test.go文件中找到测试、基准测试和示例函数。
>
> 测试函数的命名应为TestXXX(其中XXX是任意以非小写字母开头的字母数字字符串),并且应具有以下签名:

 func TestXXX(t *testing.T) { ... }

> 基准测试函数的命名应为BenchmarkXXX,并且应具有以下签名:

 func BenchmarkXXX(b *testing.B) { ... }

> 示例函数类似于测试函数,但是不使用testing.T来报告成功或失败,而是将输出打印到os.Stdout和os.Stderr。该输出与函数的“Output:”注释进行比较,该注释必须是函数体中的最后一个注释(参见下面的示例)。如果没有这样的注释,或者在“Output:”之后没有文本,则编译但不执行示例。

> Godoc会显示ExampleXXX的主体,以演示函数、常量或变量XXX的用法。具有接收器类型T或
T的方法M的示例命名为ExampleT_M。对于给定的函数、常量或变量,可以有多个示例,通过后缀_xxx进行区分,其中xxx是不以大写字母开头的后缀。

> 这是一个示例:

func ExamplePrintln() {
        Println("The output of\nthis example.")
        // Output: The output of
        // this example.
}

> 当测试文件包含单个示例函数、至少一个其他函数、类型、变量或常量声明,并且没有测试或基准测试函数时,整个测试文件将作为示例呈现。

英文:

Output of $ go help testfunc:

> The 'go test' command expects to find test, benchmark, and example functions
> in the "*_test.go" files corresponding to the package under test.

> A test function is one named TestXXX (where XXX is any alphanumeric string
> not starting with a lower case letter) and should have the signature,

 func TestXXX(t *testing.T) { ... }

> A benchmark function is one named BenchmarkXXX and should have the signature,

 func BenchmarkXXX(b *testing.B) { ... }

> An example function is similar to a test function but, instead of using *testing.T
> to report success or failure, prints output to os.Stdout and os.Stderr.
> That output is compared against the function's "Output:" comment, which

> Here is an example of an example:

func ExamplePrintln() {
        Println("The output of\nthis example.")
        // Output: The output of
        // this example.
}

> The entire test file is presented as the example when it contains a single
> example function, at least one other function, type, variable, or constant
> declaration, and no test or benchmark functions.
