Why?

This extension is written as part of our Documentation Toolkit which we use in our job daily. The main idea of toolkit is to make a process of creating and updating documentation able to be automated

Other parts of our toolkit is:

• py2swagger
• swagger2rst
• sphinx-confluence
• confluence-publisher

Install

Install Sphinx Confluence Plugin from PyPI with

$ pip install sphinx-confluence

How use it

First of all, after installation, you must enable this plugin in your build configuration file conf.py by adding sphinx_confluence into extensions list. This should looks like a:

...
extensions = ['sphinx_confluence']
...

Then you can build you documentation into html or json formats, either by using sphinx build command or if you uses sphinx-quickstart script by following commands:

• make html
• make singlehtml
• make json

After that, the results must be in Confluence Storage Format. You can use confluence-publisher for publish them to your Confluence.
