Nice! I've been playing with this since I wanted to start using the sphinx.ext.autoclass (and now repoze.sphinx.autointerface) to generate the Grok docs. However, the HTML differs between autoclass and autointerface - it'd be nice it they were more similar. In particular: * <dl class="interface"> is needed to style the block. * The word "Interface:" should have a <span class="interfacelabel"> or something around it so that it can be hidden using CSS if desired. * <tt class="descinterfacename"> and <tt class="descname"> * Permalinks (those wierd-o backwards P characters ¶) are missing And looking at the source it looks like it the package mostly just slots in the docutils-generated HTML - so I guess it could take some wrangling to make changes to the generated HTML ... One other small thing, the install_requires for the package doesn't declare that it requires docutils >= 0.5. autoclass html ------------------- <dl class="class"> <dt id="grok.Application"> <!--[grok.Application]-->class <tt class="descclassname">grok.</tt><tt class="descname">Application</tt><a class="headerlink" href="#grok.Application" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd>A top-level application object.</dd></dl> autointerface html ------------------------ <dl class="docutils"> <dt>Interface: <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">grok.interfaces.IApplication</span></tt></dt> <dd><p class="first">Marker-interface for grok application factories.</ p> <p class="last">Used to register applications as utilities to look them up and provide a list of grokked applications.</p> </dd> </dl> _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
