Creates and returns an array of class template classpath entries.
This method is meant to be overridden by custom GroovyDoc implementations, using custom class templates.
Creates and returns an array of doc template classpath entries.

Creates and returns an array of package template classpath entries.
This method is meant to be overridden by custom GroovyDoc implementations, using custom package templates.
Indicates the access mode or scope of interest: one of public, protected, package, or private. Package scoped access is ignored for fields of Groovy classes where they correspond to properties.
access - one of public, protected, package, or privateIf set to false, author will not be displayed. Currently not used.
author - new valueSpecifies the charset to be used in the templates, i.e. the value output within: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=charset">.
charset - the charset valueSet the directory where the Groovydoc output will be generated.
dir - the destination directory.Set the title for the overview page.
htmlTitle - the html to use for the title. Set the packages to exclude from documentation. Mirrors the CLI
-exclude option; the Ant task already honoured
excludePackageNames internally when generating but lacked
the public setter.
packages - a comma-separated (or colon-separated, to match
the CLI form) list of package specs, possibly
wildcarded. A colon-separated list of filename extensions to look for when searching for files to process in a given directory.
Default value: .java:.groovy:.gv:.gvy:.gsh
extensions - new valueSpecifies the file encoding to be used for generated files. If fileEncoding is missing, the charset encoding will be used for writing the files. If fileEncoding and charset are missing, the file encoding will default to Charset.defaultCharset().
fileEncoding - the file encodingSet the footer to place at the bottom of each generated html page.
footer - the footer valueSpecifies the header text to be placed at the top of each output file. The header will be placed to the right of the upper navigation bar. It may contain HTML tags and white space, though if it does, it must be enclosed in quotes. Any internal quotation marks within the header may have to be escaped.
header - the header valueIf set to false, 'public static void main' method will not be displayed. Defaults to true. Ignored when not processing Scripts.
includeMainForScripts - new valueDefaults to a popular Java version defined by the JavaParser library. Otherwise, override here for a specific expected source file version.
javaVersion - the expected source level of any Java files that may be parsed; e.g. JAVA_11 GROOVY-11943: if set to true, suppress generation of the deprecated-list
page (deprecated-list.html) and its nav-bar link.
GROOVY-11943: if set to true, suppress generation of the help page
(help-doc.html) and its nav-bar link.
GROOVY-11943: if set to true, suppress generation of the alphabetical
index page (index-all.html) and its nav-bar link.
If set to true, hidden timestamp will not appear within generated HTML.
noTimestamp - new valueIf set to true, hidden version stamp will not appear within generated HTML.
noVersionStamp - new valueSpecify the file containing the overview to be included in the generated documentation.
file - the overview fileIndicate whether only package, protected and public classes and members are to be included in the scope processed. Package scoped access is ignored for fields of Groovy classes where they correspond to properties.
b - true if scope includes package level classes and membersSet the package names to be processed.
packages - a comma separated list of packages specs
(may be wildcarded). Default language id for <pre> blocks in rendered doc comments
that carry no class= attribute. When set (e.g. "groovy"),
a post-pass rewrites such <pre> openings to
<pre class="language-xxx">, which enables Prism syntax
highlighting for legacy doc-comment code blocks without touching
source files. <pre> blocks that already have any class
attribute (including class="groovyTestCase") are left alone.
preLanguage - the language id, or empty/null to disableIndicate whether all classes and members are to be included in the scope processed.
b - true if scope is to be private level.If set to false, Scripts will not be processed. Defaults to true.
processScripts - new valueIndicate whether only protected and public classes and members are to be included in the scope processed.
b - true if scope includes protected level classes and membersIndicate whether only public classes and members are to be included in the scope processed.
b - true if scope only includes public level classes and members If set to true, members annotated with groovy.transform.@Internal
(per GEP-17) are still included in the generated documentation. Defaults
to false, so internal members are hidden.
showInternal - new valueSpecify where to find source file
src - a Path instance containing the various source directories.Specifies a stylesheet file to use. If not specified, a default one will be generated for you.
styleSheetFile - the css stylesheet file to use GROOVY-11938 stage 4: selects a client-side syntax highlighter for
{@snippet} and fenced Markdown code blocks. Valid values are
"prism" (bundled) or "none" (default). Any other value
is treated as "none".
GROOVY-11947: theme lock mode for the generated docs.
"auto" (default) — emit a prefers-color-scheme
media query so each reader sees their OS preference."light" — lock the palette to light regardless of OS."dark" — lock the palette to dark regardless of OS."auto".
Set the title to be placed in the HTML <title> tag of the generated documentation.
