Install Development Environment

• Install virtualenv

  With pip:

  pip install virtualent
  

  or using a package manager of your distro, for example:

  pacman -s virtualenv
  

• Create a virtual environment:

$ cd /.../project_directory
$ virtualenv dev_env

• Enter the virtual environment:

  • sh/bash/zsh:

  $ source .dev_env/bin/activate
  

  • fish/csh:

  $ source .dev_env/bin/activate.[fish|csh]
  

• Install dependencies:

(dev_env) $ pip install -r requirements.txt

Generate/Update Documentation

• Make sure sphinx is installed:

$ sphinx-[apidoc|build|autogen|quickstart] --version
$ sphinx-[apidoc|build|autogen|quickstart] 7.2.x

• Change directory to ./docs and run make [html|epub|...]. Generated docs will appear inside docs/source/[html|epub|...].

If you need to generate docs from scratch

• Make sure you included project source directory in docs/source/conf.py. If not present, add the following lines at the beginning of the file:

import pathlib
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, pathlib.Path(__file__).parents[2].resolve().as_posix())

• Add necessary extensions for documentation generation:

extensions = [
    'sphinx.ext.autodoc',
    'sphinx.ext.autosummary'
]

• Generate automatic module description:

$ cd controls/docs
$ make [html|epub|...]

• Generated descriptions are included in the Module Index. Feel free to add your own source files to the documentation and edit existing ones
