</pre>

Creates a stardoc target that can be auto-detected by update_docs to write the generated doc to the source tree and test that it's up to date.

This is helpful for minimizing boilerplate in repos with lots of stardoc targets.

## update_docs

update_docs(<a href="#update_docs-name">name</a>, <a href="#update_docs-kwargs">kwargs</a>)
</pre>

Stamps an executable run for writing all stardocs declared with stardoc_with_diff_test to the source tree.

This is to be used in tandem with `stardoc_with_diff_test()` to produce a convenient workflow
for generating, testing, and updating all doc files as follows:

``` bash
bazel build //{docs_folder}/... && bazel test //{docs_folder}/... && bazel run //{docs_folder}:update
```

eg.

``` bash
bazel build //docs/... && bazel test //docs/... && bazel run //docs:update
```

| <a id="update_docs-name"></a>name |  the name of executable target   |  `"update"` |
| <a id="update_docs-kwargs"></a>kwargs |  Other common named parameters such as `tags` or `visibility`   |  none |
