NAME

       sphinx-apidoc - Sphinx API doc generator tool

SYNOPSIS

       sphinx-apidoc [options] -o <outputdir> <sourcedir> [pathnames ...]

DESCRIPTION

       sphinx-apidoc  is  a  tool  for automatic generation of Sphinx sources that, using the autodoc extension,
       document a whole package in the style of other automatic API documentation tools.

       sourcedir must point to a Python package.  Any  pathnames  given  are  paths  to  be  excluded  from  the
       generation.

OPTIONS

       -o <outputdir>
              Directory to place the output files.  If it does not exist, it is created.

       -f, --force
              Usually, apidoc does not overwrite files, unless this option is given.

       -n, --dry-run
              If given, apidoc does not create any files.

       -s <suffix>
              Suffix for the source files generated, default is rst.

       -d <maxdepth>
              Maximum depth for the generated table of contents file.

       -T, --no-toc
              Do not create a table of contents file.

       -F, --full
              If given, a full Sphinx project is generated (conf.py, Makefile etc.) using sphinx-quickstart.

       -E, --separate
              Put each module file in its own page.

       These options are used with -F:

       -H <project>
              Project name to put into the configuration.

       -A <author>
              Author name(s) to put into the configuration.
