.TH sphinx-build 1 "Jan 2009" "Sphinx 0.6" "User Commands"
.SH NAME
sphinx-build \- Sphinx documentation generator tool
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B sphinx-build
[\fIoptions\fR] <\fIsourcedir\fR> <\fIoutdir\fR> [\fIfilenames\fR...]
.SH DESCRIPTION
sphinx-build generates documentation from the files in <sourcedir> and places it
in the <outdir>.
sphinx-build looks for <sourcedir>/conf.py for the configuration settings.
.B sphinx-quickstart(1)
may be used to generate template files, including conf.py.
sphinx-build can create documentation in different formats. A format is
selected by specifying the builder name on the command line; it defaults to
HTML. Builders can also perform other tasks related to documentation
processing.
By default, everything that is outdated is built. Output only for selected
files can be built by specifying individual filenames.
List of available builders:
.TP
\fBhtml\fR
HTML files generation. This is default builder.
.TP
\fBhtmlhelp\fR
Generates files for CHM generation.
.TP
\fBqthelp\fR
Generates files for Qt help collection generation.
.TP
\fBlatex\fR
Generates a LaTeX version of the documentation.
.TP
\fBtext\fR
Generates a plain-text version of the documentation.
.TP
\fBchanges\fR
Generates HTML files listing changed/added/deprecated items for the
current version.
.TP
\fBlinkcheck\fR
Checks the integrity of all external links in the documentation.
