Cobra can generate a markdown formatted document based on the subcommands, flags, etc. A simple example of how to do this for your command can be found in [Markdown Docs](md_docs.md)

## Generating bash completions for your command
Cobra can generate a bash completions file. If you add more information to your command these completions can be amazingly powerful and flexible. Read more about [Bash Completions](bash_completions.md)

# Generating Man Pages For Your Own cobra.Command
Generating bash completions from a cobra command is incredibly easy. An example is as follows:
```go
package main
import (
"github.com/spf13/cobra"
)
func main() {
cmd := &cobra.Command{
Use: "test",
Short: "my test program",
}
cmd.GenManTree("/tmp")
}
```
That will get you a man page `/tmp/test.1`
