I started writing a tagging extension for my own site - I was thinging of starting from the app.add_object_type method - http://sphinx.pocoo.org/ext/appapi.html#sphinx.application.Sphinx.add_object_type - and then generating overview pages with backlinks.
However, I then realised that the plain old index does everything I want from tags, including a very nice overview page. Are you sure that doesn't do what you want? -dan On Aug 15, 12:37 am, Jan Ulrich Hasecke <juhase...@googlemail.com> wrote: > Am 13.08.2010 um 23:32 schrieb Kevin Horn: > > > .. tags:: foo, bar, baz > > > And to list all tags in the sphinxsidebar as clickable links which point to > > a page where all documents with the specified tag are listed alphabetically. > > AFAIK, it's not currently possible to do anything like this, though I've > > also wanted something like this. > > > It's probably possible to do something like this in an extension, by > > creating a custom directive, and then writing hooks into the sphinx build > > system to compile the tags from various documents into a coherent whole. > > I've pondered doing this, but haven't managed to come up with the time yet. > > I'm not a programmer but I would think that the index directive would be a > good starting point for a tagging mechanism, because it takes all occurrences > of a word (or tag) into account and lists links to them on the index page. > Sphinx only needs to split up the index of tags into separate pages (one page > for each tag) and list on this page all occurrences of the tag as title > links.
