Run +``mach help doc`` to see configurable options. + +Adding Documentation +-------------------- + +To add new documentation, define the ``SPHINX_TREES`` and +``SPHINX_PYTHON_PACKAGE_DIRS`` variables in ``moz.build`` files in +the tree and documentation will automatically get picked up. + +Say you have a directory ``featureX`` you would like to write some +documentation for. Here are the steps to create Sphinx documentation +for it: + +1. Create a directory for the docs. This is typically ``docs``. e.g. + ``featureX/docs``. +2. Create an ``index.rst`` file in this directory. The ``index.rst`` file + is the root documentation for that section. See ``build/docs/index.rst`` + for an example file. +3. In a ``moz.build`` file (typically the one in the parent directory of + the ``docs`` directory), define ``SPHINX_TREES`` to hook up the plumbing. + e.g. ``SPHINX_TREES['featureX'] = 'docs'``. This says *the ``docs`` + directory under the current directory should be installed into the + Sphinx documentation tree under ``/featureX``*. +4. If you have Python packages you would like to generate Python API + documentation for, you can use ``SPHINX_PYTHON_PACKAGE_DIRS`` to + declare directories containing Python packages. e.g. + ``SPHINX_PYTHON_PACKAGE_DIRS += ['mozpackage']``. + +Indices and tables +================== + +* :ref:`genindex` +* :ref:`modindex` +* :ref:`search` |
