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.
WARNING:
sphinx-apidoc generates source files that use sphinx.ext.autodoc to document all found modules. If
any modules have side effects on import, these will be executed by autodoc when sphinx-build is run.
If you document scripts (as opposed to library modules), make sure their main routine is protected by
a if __name__ == '__main__' condition.
