Matplotlib theme for Sphinx
Project description
This is the official Sphinx theme for Matplotlib documentation. It extends the pydata-sphinx-theme project, but adds custom styling and a navigation bar.
When creating a Matplotlib subproject you can include this theme by changing this line in your conf.py file
html_theme = 'mpl_sphinx_theme'And by including mpl_sphinx_theme as a requirement in your documentation installation.
See the docs/conf.py file for other settings.
There are three main templates that replace the defaults in pydata-sphinx-theme:
navbar_start = mpl_navbar_logo.html
navbar_center = mpl_nav_bar.html
navbar_end = mpl_icon_links.htmlNote that the option html_logo need not be specified as it is included in mpl_sphinx_theme/mpl_navbar_logo.html. The logo is stored at mpl_sphinx_theme/static/images/logo2.svg.
To change the top navbar, edit mpl_sphinx_theme/mpl_nav_bar.html
To change the social icons, edit mpl_sphinx_theme/mpl_icon_links.html
To change the style, edit mpl_sphinx_theme/static/css/style.css
Releasing
Manually for now… see the todo below for how we hope to eventually do it automagically.
$ git checkout <commit-hash>
$ git tag -a x.y.z -m 'Version x.y.z'
$ git push upstream main --tags
$ python -m build -s -w
$ twine upload dist/mpl_sphinx_theme-x.y.z*TODO: This project uses GitHub Actions to automatically push a new release to PyPI whenever a git tag is pushed. For example, to release a new x.y.z version of mpl-sphinx-theme, checkout the commit you would like to release, add a git tag, and push the tag to the main branch of the matplotlib/mpl-sphinx-theme repository:
TODO: After a new release is published on PyPI, a pull request to the mpl-sphinx-theme conda-forge feedstock for the new x.y.z release will automatically be opened by conda-forge bots.
