sphinxcontrib-toc is a Sphinx extension to allow .toc file to build the Table of Contents.

This extension empower you to build complicated document with markup languages which can not define toctrees. Specifically, combination with recommonmark, you don’t need to write any reStructuredText in your document!

Append this extension in conf.py:

extensions = ['sphinxcontrib.toc']

And configure following settings:

toc_title

The default title of toctree if no titles in .toc file. By default, "{project} Documentation".

toc_numbered

Same as :numbered: option of toctree directive. If enabled, Sphinx assigns section numbers. By default, true.

.toc file

.toc file is a list of documents like toctree directive:

section1
section2
section3

You may define the title of toctree at top of the file:

# The title of document
section1
section2
section3

Tips

You can use “nested” .toc file like following:

/index.toc
/part1.rst
/part2.rst
/part3/index.toc
/part3/section1.toc
/part3/section2.toc

# In /index.toc
part1
part2
part3/index

# In /part3/index.toc
section1
section2
