At present, the 'builder' option for the setuptools integration only supports a single output format, typically HTML, like so: [build_sphinx] builder = man There is value in being able to specify multiple format, like so: [build_sphinx] builder = html man Make this possible.

Setuptools integration
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
Sphinx supports integration with setuptools and distutils through a custom
|
|
command - :class:`~sphinx.setup_command.BuildDoc`.
|
|
|
|
Using setuptools integration
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
The Sphinx build can then be triggered from distutils, and some Sphinx
|
|
options can be set in ``setup.py`` or ``setup.cfg`` instead of Sphinx own
|
|
configuration file.
|
|
|
|
For instance, from ``setup.py``::
|
|
|
|
# this is only necessary when not using setuptools/distribute
|
|
from sphinx.setup_command import BuildDoc
|
|
cmdclass = {'build_sphinx': BuildDoc}
|
|
|
|
name = 'My project'
|
|
version = '1.2'
|
|
release = '1.2.0'
|
|
setup(
|
|
name=name,
|
|
author='Bernard Montgomery',
|
|
version=release,
|
|
cmdclass=cmdclass,
|
|
# these are optional and override conf.py settings
|
|
command_options={
|
|
'build_sphinx': {
|
|
'project': ('setup.py', name),
|
|
'version': ('setup.py', version),
|
|
'release': ('setup.py', release)}},
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
Or add this section in ``setup.cfg``::
|
|
|
|
[build_sphinx]
|
|
project = 'My project'
|
|
version = 1.2
|
|
release = 1.2.0
|
|
|
|
Once configured, call this by calling the relevant command on ``setup.py``::
|
|
|
|
$ python setup.py build_sphinx
|
|
|
|
