What are some examples of using Sphinx Autodoc?

Can you provide some examples of how to use Sphinx Autodoc?

Sure! Sphinx Autodoc is a powerful tool for generating documentation from your code. For example, if you have a Python module, you can use Autodoc to automatically extract docstrings and create documentation pages.

How do I set it up in my Sphinx project?

To set it up, first, ensure you have Sphinx installed. Then, add 'sphinx.ext.autodoc' to your extensions list in the conf.py file. After that, you can use directives like .. automodule:: your_module in your .rst files.

Can I customize the output format?

Yes, you can customize the output by using different Sphinx themes and modifying the templates. You can also control which members to include or exclude using options in the autodoc directives.

Are there any best practices for writing docstrings?

Absolutely! It's best to follow conventions like PEP 257 for Python. Make sure to include a summary, parameters, return types, and exceptions in your docstrings for clarity.
