README

This library provides a tool for collecting different documentation roots from all over your project and combine them into one table of contents file, which will be your project documentation.

Installing Sphinx

Enable PDF

For PHP and/or Symfony-related documentation

Install Sphinx PHP extensions by Fabien Potencier (https://github.com/fabpot/sphinx-php) using Composer:

composer require --dev fabpot/sphinx-php:1.*

Then add the extensions:

# in config.py

import sys

...

sys.path.insert(0, os.path.abspath('../../vendor/fabpot/sphinx-php'))

extensions = [..., 'sensio.sphinx.refinclude', 'sensio.sphinx.configurationblock', 'sensio.sphinx.phpcode']

Configure the PHP lexer to work for code samples without a PHP open tag:

from sphinx.highlighting import lexers
from pygments.lexers.web import PhpLexer

# enable highlighting for PHP code not between ``<?php ... ?>`` by default
lexers['php'] = PhpLexer(startinline=True)
lexers['php-annotations'] = PhpLexer(startinline=True)

primary_domain = 'php'

# API URL
api_url = 'http://api.symfony.com/master/%s'

Usage

php bin/collect.php build/documentation --library-dir=src/Acme/*/ --library-dir=vendor/acme/*/

The first argument should be the Sphinx documentation directory. Then you need to supply one or more --library-dir options. Those will be used to scan for /meta/doc directories containing an index.rst file. For each of these "documentation roots" a symlink will be created in the build directory. Finally a fresh table of contents is automatically generated: it collects all the index.rst files from all over the project.
