sphinx-related-links
sphinx-related-links adds functionality to Sphinx that allows adding related links on a per-page basis, supporting both Discourse topic links and custom related URLs.
Basic usage
Adding Discourse links
Configure the Discourse prefix in your conf.py:
html_context = {
"discourse_prefix": "https://discuss.linuxcontainers.org/t/"
}
html_context = {
"discourse_prefix": {
"ubuntu": "https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/",
"lxc": "https://discuss.linuxcontainers.org/t/"
}
}
Add the desired Discourse topic IDs to the page's metadata. For MyST files, this is done with frontmatter.
---
discourse: 12033,13128
---
For rST sources, metadata content can be added with the following syntax:
:discourse: 12033, 13128
Adding custom related links
Add URLs to page metadata:
---
relatedlinks: https://www.example.com, https://www.google.com
---
Project setup
sphinx-related-links is published on PyPI and can be installed with:
pip install sphinx-related-links
After adding sphinx-related-links to your Python project, update your Sphinx's conf.py file to include sphinx-related-links as one of its extensions:
extensions = [
"sphinx_related_links"
]
Lastly, update your Sphinx project's templates to include the metadata content in the right-hand sidebar. This will depend on your project's theme. An example template can be seen in this project's integration tests.
