Build the docs using sphinx#

You can build the sphinx based docs from the project directory by running:

$ tox -e docs

This will build the static docs on the docs directory, which includes API docs that pull in docstrings from the code.

The docs will be built into the build/html directory, and can be opened locally with a web browse:

$ firefox build/html/index.html

Autobuild#

You can also run an autobuild process, which will watch your docs directory for changes and rebuild whenever it sees changes, reloading any browsers watching the pages:

$ tox -e docs autobuild

You can view the pages at localhost:

$ firefox http://localhost:8000

If you are making changes to source code too, you can tell it to watch changes in this directory too:

$ tox -e docs autobuild -- --watch src
