sphinx.ext.viewcode not working ?

[Cdebus]

For our project documentation we would like to show [Source] links next to the API references. In principle sphinx.ext.viewcode should be able to provide this, however it doesn't seem to be working so far neither on my local build nor on the readthedocs build. From the references to sphinx.ext.viewcode I have found so far, none is using sphinx-autoapi, they all rely on autodoc (e.g. readthedocs/readthedocs.org#2139).

Anyone with some experience on this topic?

Hi @Cdebus. If this isn't a problem with AutoAPI then https://github.com/readthedocs/readthedocs.org/issues seems like the right place to raise the issue rather than here.

Just because I stumbled upon the same problem. The solution that worked for me is mentioned here
and is basically that 'sphinx_autodoc_typehints' needs to be added after 'sphinx.ext.napoleon'.
