Description:

bfabio.sphinxrstbuilder 0.0.1

Sphinx reStructuredText Builder
Sphinx extension to build reST (reStructuredText) files.
This extension is in particular useful to use in combination with the autodoc
extension to automatically generate documentation for use by any rst parser
(such as the GitHub wiki).
In itself, the extension is fairly straightforward – it takes the parsed reST
file from Sphinx and outputs it as reST.

Requirements

Sphinx 2.0 or later
Python 3.6 or later



Installing

Using pip

pip install sphinx-rst-builder



Manual

git clone https://github.com/davidfritzsche/sphinx-rst-builder.git
cd sphinx-rst-builder
python setup.py install

If you want to take a look and have a try, you can put the reST builder in
an extension subdirectory, and adjust sys.path to tell Sphinx where to
look for it:

Add the extensions directory to the path in conf.py. E.g.




Usage

Set the builder as a extension in conf.py:
Run sphinx-build with target rst:



Configuration
The following four configuration variables are defined by sphinxcontrib.restbuilder:
rst_file_suffix

This is the file name suffix for generated reST files. The default is
".rst".

rst_link_suffix

Suffix for generated links to reST files. The default is whatever
rst_file_suffix is set to.

rst_file_transform

Function to translate a docname to a filename.
By default, returns docname + rst_file_suffix.

rst_link_transform

Function to translate a docname to a (partial) URI.
By default, returns docname + rst_link_suffix.

Feedback
The reST builder is in a preliminary state. It’s not (yet) widely used, so
any feedback is particularly welcome.
