This project serves as an example project to demonstrate how to use the sphinx documentation generator for Python and provide a template to make starting out easier.
If you do not know how to write .rst, you should have a look at a tutorial or a reference first: Restructured Text Reference:
Have a look at our starting code from the index.rst :
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
:glob:
:caption: Example
*This directive will tell sphinx to generate a table of contents automatically. Right after the toctree directive we are passing three options:
- :maxdepth: This restricts the generator to only dive into the tree by the number of levels you configure here.
- :glob: This is an important option to set, in order to make the generator recursively pick up all .rst files using wildcards
- :caption: This sets a headline for the entire table of contents. It should probably be your project name.
- After setting the options you must leave a blank line before configuring the paths to your .rst files. In our case we use an asterisk, but you can specify exact paths here as well.
