如何在JSDoc中指定对象数组作为参数或返回值？

Question

In JSDoc, the best documentation I can find shows to use the following if you have an array of a specific type (such as an array of strings) as:

/**
 * @param {Array.<string>} myStrings All my awesome strings
 */
 function blah(myStrings){
     //stuff here...
 }

How would you replace the below question marks specify an array of objects?

/**
 * @param {???????} myObjects All of my equally awesome objects
 */
 function blah(myObjects){
     //stuff here...
 }

Answer 1

You should be more specific what you mean by JSDoc - this is a generic term covering pretty much all the JavaDoc-style documentation tools for JavaScript.

The syntax you used for array of strings looks like the one supported by Google Closure Compiler .

Using this, an array of Objects would be:

/**
 * @param {Array.<Object>} myObjects
 */

Or just an array of anything - this should work with pretty much all doc tools:

/**
 * @param {Array} myArray
 */

jsdoc-toolkit , JSDoc 3 , and JSDuck support the following syntax to denote an array of objects:

/**
 * @param {Object[]} myArray
 */

EDIT

In case you know the keys and the variable type of the values you can also do:

/**
 * @param {Array.<{myNumber: Number, myString: String, myArray: Array}>} myObjects
 */

or

/**
 * @param {{myNumber: Number, myString: String, myArray: Array}[]} myObjects
 */
