edx-sphinx-theme 2.0.0

Overview

This theme makes the following changes to the default Sphinx output:

• Displays the edX logo

• Adds a link to a feedback form that identifies which page the feedback came from

To use edx-sphinx-theme for a repository’s documentation:

• pip install edx-sphinx-theme or equivalent (add edx-sphinx-theme to any appropriate requirements files)

• Add edx_theme to the extensions list in conf.py (it adds the feedback form URL to the rendering context for each page).

• Update the html_theme and html_theme_path values in conf.py so the theme can be located and loaded.

• Set html_favicon to the path of the favicon.ico file in the theme.

• Use the AUTHOR constant where appropriate in conf.py (this default is only provided as a convenience; the repository is free to use another value if appropriate).

For example:

import os
import edx_theme

extensions = ['edx_theme']

copyright = '{year}, edX Inc.'.format(year=datetime.datetime.now().year)
author = edx_theme.AUTHOR

html_theme = 'edx_theme'
html_theme_path = [edx_theme.get_html_theme_path()]
html_favicon = os.path.join(html_theme_path[0], 'edx_theme', 'static', 'css', 'favicon.ico')

latex_documents = [
    (master_doc, 'edx-sphinx-theme.tex', 'edx-sphinx-theme Documentation',
     author, 'manual'),
]

Read the Docs Configuration

Because this theme is a Python package which needs to be installed, Read the Docs needs to be configured appropriately to be able to install it when performing documentation builds. Under Advanced Settings:

• Install your project inside a virtualenv using setup.py install should be checked

• Requirements file should point to a pip requirements file which includes open-edx-theme.
