The special members are not treated as "attributes". So they're not
handled by DataDocumenter. This moves the detection to the earlier
step of filter_members().
When multiple singledispatch decorators are stacked, the first typehints
are copied to the subsequent definitions unexpectedly.
Now autodoc generates a dummy function not to affect typehints to
subsequent functions.
The imgconverter unexpectedly goes to convert even if the given image
is supported by the target builder when the image globbing is not used.
This enables format guess-ing on not globbed.
Add test objects so all builders gets exposed to the new nodes.
Make the fallback node post-transform change desc_inline as well.
Make the html4, latex, and text writers handle desc_inline.
Add new tests to exercise the new autodoc_typehint_undoc option. Where
an existing test would have a meaningful behavior change with the new
option set to False, that test is copied, the new option is set to False
in the copy, and the assertions reflect the new expected behavior.
The new test test_autodoc_typehints_description_with_documented_init
illustrates the problem reported in #7329, and the new test
test_autodoc_typehints_description_with_documented_init_no_undoc
illustrates that this issue no longer occurs when the new
autodoc_typehint_undoc option is set to False.
This generates `:canonical:` option for `:py:class:` directive if the
target class is imported from other module. It allows users to refer it
using both the new name (imported name) and the original name (canonical
name).
It helps a library that implements some class in private module (like
`_io.StringIO`), and publish it as public module (like `io.StringIO`).
To make directives' behavior consistent, the :file: option for
csv-table directive now recognizes an absolute path as a relative
path from source directory.
Add a new extension `sphinx.ext.autodoc.preserve_defaults`.
It preserves the default argument values of function signatures in source code
and keep them not evaluated for readability. This is an experimental
extension and it will be integrated into autodoc core in Sphinx-4.0.
Add a new config variable: python_use_unqualified_type_names. If enabled,
it goes to suppress the module name of the python reference if it can be
resolved.
To describe the purpose more accurately, the `master_doc` is now renamed
to `root_doc`. The old name is still available. But it is recommeneded
to use new one from now on.
Unintentionally, uninitialized attributes defined at superclasses are
recognized as undocumented in the filtering step. Therefore, they are
filtered if `:undoc-members:` option given.
This is cosmetic as the blank line starting varwidth environment used
for merged table cells in latex output changed nothing to PDF.
Nevertheless I extended a unit test to have a multi-paragraph merged
cell using varwidth. What is important is that \sphinxAtStartPar line
itself is never followed by blank line.
autodoc crashed when a decorator in mocked module takes arguments
because mock system returns the first argument for the decorator as a
decorated object.
This changes the approach for mocking decorators that remembers
arguments for each decoration, and fetch the latest argument on
generating document.
So far, linkcheck scans all of references and images from documents, and
checks them parallel. As a result, some URL would be checked twice (or
more) by race condition.
This collects the URL via post-transforms, and removes duplicated URLs
before checking availability.
