Sphinx API documentation generator
Project description
Sphinx AutoAPI is a Sphinx extension for generating complete API documentation without needing to load, run, or import the project being documented.
In contrast to the traditional Sphinx autodoc, which requires manual authoring and uses code imports, AutoAPI finds and generates documentation by parsing source code.
For more information, see the full documentation.
Getting Started
The following steps will walk through how to add AutoAPI to an existing Sphinx project. For instructions on how to set up a Sphinx project, see Sphinx’s documentation.
Installation
AutoAPI can be installed through pip:
pip install sphinx-autoapiNext, add and configure AutoAPI in your Sphinx project’s conf.py.
extensions.append('autoapi.extension')
autoapi_dirs = ['path/to/source/files', 'src']When the documentation is built, AutoAPI will now generate API documentation into an autoapi/ directory and add an entry to the documentation in your top level table of contents!
To configure AutoAPI behaviour further, see the Configuration documentation.
