Include content of the directive only if the Python expression given as an
argument is ``True``, evaluated in the namespace of the project's
configuration (that is, all variables from :file:`conf.py` are available).
configuration (that is, all registered variables from :file:`conf.py` are
available).
For example, one could write ::
.. ifconfig:: releaselevel in ('alpha', 'beta', 'rc')
This stuff is only included in the built docs for unstable versions.
To make a custom config value known to Sphinx, use
:func:`~sphinx.application.Sphinx.add_config_value` in the setup function in
:file:`conf.py`, e.g.::
def setup(app):
app.add_config_value('releaselevel', '', True)
The second argument is the default value, the third should always be ``True``
for such values (it selects if Sphinx re-reads the documents if the value
changes).
