Internal utilities for projects following git-pull python package spec

Project description

gp-libs · Python Package License Code Coverage

Incubating / dogfooding some sphinx extensions and pytest plugins on git-pull projects, e.g. cihai, vcs-python, or tmux-python.

doctest helpers (for docutils)

Two parts:

  1. doctest module: Same specification as doctest, but can parse reStructuredText and markdown
  2. pytest plugin: Collects pytest for reStructuredText and markdown files

doctest module

This extends standard library doctest to support anything docutils can parse. It can parse reStructuredText (.rst) and markdown (.md).

See more: https://gp-libs.git-pull.com/doctest/

Writing doctests

It supports two barebones directives:

  • docutils' doctest_block

    >>> 2 + 2
    4
    
  • .. doctest:: directive

    reStructuredText:

    .. doctest::
    
       >>> 2 + 2
       4
    

    Markdown (requires myst-parser):

    ```{doctest}
    >>> 2 + 2
    4
    ```
    

Test your docs

reStructuredText
$ python -m doctest_docutils README.rst -v

That's what doctest does by design.

Markdown

If you install myst-parser, doctest will run on .md files.

$ python -m doctest_docutils README.md -v

pytest plugin

This plugin disables pytest's standard doctest plugin.

This plugin integrates with the above module.

$ pytest docs/

Like the above module, it supports docutils' own doctest_block and a basic .. doctest:: directive.

sphinx plugins

Plain-text issue linker (linkify-issues)

We need to parse plain text, e.g. #99999, to point to the project tracker at https://github.com/git-pull/gp-libs/issues/99999. This way the markdown looks good anywhere you render it, including GitHub and GitLab.

Configuration

In your conf.py:

  1. Add 'linkify_issues' to extensions

    extensions = [
        # ...
        "linkify_issues",
    ]
    
  2. Configure your issue URL, issue_url_tpl:

    # linkify_issues
    issue_url_tpl = 'https://github.com/git-pull/gp-libs/issues/{issue_id}'
    

    The config variable is formatted via {meth}str.format where issue_id is 42 if the text is #42.

Table of contents for autodoc

sphinx.ext.autodoc doesn't link objects in the table of contents. So we need a plugin to help.

See more: https://gp-libs.git-pull.com/sphinx_toctree_autodoc_fix/

Configuration

  1. Add 'sphinx_toctree_autodoc_fix' to extensions

    extensions = [
        # ...
        "sphinx_toctree_autodoc_fix",
    ]
    

Install

$ pip install --user gp-libs

Developmental releases

You can test the unpublished version of g before its released.

  • pip:

    $ pip install --user --upgrade --pre gp-libs
