Examples ======== Example documentation structure ------------------------------- Here is an example structure for the documentation of a complex command with many subcommands. You are free to use any structure, but this may be a good starting point. File "index.rst":: .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 cmd File "cmd.rst":: Command line utilities ********************** .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 cmd_main cmd_subcommand File "cmd_main.rst":: Fancytool command *********************** .. argparse:: :module: my.module :func: my_func_that_returns_a_parser :prog: fancytool subcommand Here we add a reference to subcommand, to simplify navigation. See :doc:`cmd_subcommand` File "cmd_subcommand.rst":: Subcommand command *********************** .. argparse:: :module: my.module :func: my_func_that_return_parser :prog: fancytool :path: subcommand Source of example file ---------------------- This file will be used in all generated examples. .. literalinclude:: ../test/sample.py Generated sample 1 - command with subcommands --------------------------------------------- Directive ~~~~~~~~~ Source:: .. argparse:: :filename: ../test/sample.py :func: parser :prog: sample Output ~~~~~~ .. argparse:: :filename: ../test/sample.py :func: parser :prog: sample Generated sample 2 - subcommand ------------------------------- Directive ~~~~~~~~~ Source:: .. argparse:: :filename../test/sample.py :func: parser :prog: sample :path: game Output ~~~~~~ .. argparse:: :filename: ../test/sample.py :func: parser :prog: sample :path: game
