How to generate documentation with Yard for Rails views?

Question

I have just started using Yard to generate my docs and whilst it works great for my models and controllers, I can't seem to get it to generate anything for the views

I've tried a variety of different ways to get it to work. Currently I've set up a rake task to generate the docs that looks something like this

YARD::Rake::YardocTask.new do |t|
    t.files   = ['lib/**/*.rb', 'app/**/*.rb', 'app/views/**/*.erb']
    t.options = []
end

The last path there, I believe, should get it to include my views but when I look at the docs, there's no mention of any of these files at all. Any ideas why?

Cheers

Template files are not expected to contain Ruby methods or business logic. What kind of documentation would you like to generate?
