sphinx-apitree 1.2.0

Sphinx extension to auto-generate API tree.

sphinx-apitree

apitree is a small library to generate a ready-to-use documentation with minimal friction!

apitree takes care of everything, so you can only focus on the code.

Usage

In docs/conf.py, replace everything by:

import apitree

apitree.make_project(
    # e.g. `import visu3d as v3d` -> {'v3d': 'visu3d'}
    project_name={'alias': 'my_module'},
    globals=globals(),
)

Then to generate the doc:

sphinx-build -b html docs/ docs/_build

To add api/my_module/index somewhere in your toctree, like:

..toctree:
  :caption: API

  api/my_module/index
