I have some modest experience with creating jsdoc 3 templates and I've looked at the code to check what you are asking. Here is what I found:
<footer>
is hardcoded in the default template'slayout.tmpl
file. By hardcoded, I mean the element itself is not optional.I've not seen any code in the default template's
publish.js
file that would somehow remove<footer>
when processinglayout.tmpl
.
So to remove this footer you'd have to use a customized template or do some sort of post-processing on the files generated by jsdoc 3.
With versions prior to 3.3.0, removing <footer>
from the template would mean copying the whole default template and making the change to layout.tmpl
. Version 3.3.0, which is currently in alpha, will provide the possibility to basically tell jsdoc 3 to use the default template but with a different layout.tmpl
file, which will make customizing templates much easier.
