Overview

Task creates ri data in ./.rdoc for your project.

It contains the following tasks:

ri: Build ri data
clobber_ri: Delete ri data files. This target is automatically added to the main clobber target.
reri: Rebuild the ri data from scratch even if they are not out of date.

Simple example:

require 'rdoc/ri/task'

RDoc::RI::Task.new do |ri|
  ri.main = 'README.rdoc'
  ri.rdoc_files.include 'README.rdoc', 'lib/**/*.rb'
end

For further configuration details see ::RDoc::Task.
