## Installation sphinx-autobuild is available on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/p/sphinx-autobuild/). It can be installed using pip: ``` pip install sphinx-autobuild ``` ## Usage To build a classical Sphinx documentation set, run: ``` sphinx-autobuild docs docs/_build/html ``` This will start a server at http://127.0.0.1:8000 and start watching for changes in the `docs/` directory. When a change is detected in `docs/`, the documentation is rebuilt and any open browser windows are reloaded automatically. `KeyboardInterrupt` (ctrl+c) will stop the server. ## Command line options sphinx-autobuild accepts the same arguments as `sphinx-build` (these get passed to sphinx-build on each build). It also has a few additional options, which can seen by running `sphinx-autobuild --help`: ```sh-session $ sphinx-autobuild --help usage: sphinx-autobuild [-h] [--port PORT] [--host HOST] [--re-ignore RE_IGNORE] [--ignore IGNORE] [--no-initial] [--open-browser] [--delay DELAY] [--watch DIR] [--pre-build COMMAND] [--version] sourcedir outdir [filenames [filenames ...]] positional arguments: sourcedir source directory outdir output directory for built documentation filenames specific files to rebuild on each run (default: None) optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit --port PORT port to serve documentation on. 0 means find and use a free port (default: 8000) --host HOST hostname to serve documentation on (default: 127.0.0.1) --re-ignore RE_IGNORE regular expression for files to ignore, when watching for changes (default: []) --ignore IGNORE glob expression for files to ignore, when watching for changes (default: []) --no-initial skip the initial build (default: False) --open-browser open the browser after building documentation (default: False) --delay DELAY how long to wait before opening the browser (default: 5) --watch DIR additional directories to watch (default: []) --pre-build COMMAND additional command(s) to run prior to building the documentation (default: []) --version show program's version number and exit sphinx's arguments: The following arguments are forwarded as-is to Sphinx. Please look at `sphinx --help` for more information. -b=builder, -a, -E, -d=path, -j=N, -c=path, -C, -D=setting=value, -t=tag, -A=name=value, -n, -v, -q, -Q, -w=file, -W, -T, -N, -P ``` ### Using with Makefile > FYI: Sphinx is planning to [move away from using `Makefile`](https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/5618#issuecomment-502415633). To use sphinx-autobuild with the Makefile generated by Sphinx, add the following to the end of the Makefile: ```make livehtml: sphinx-autobuild "$(SOURCEDIR)" "$(BUILDDIR)" $(SPHINXOPTS) $(O) ``` `make livehtml` will now invoke sphinx-autobuild. > If you generated the `Makefile` with an older version of sphinx, this syntax might not work for you. Consider [updating to the newer `Makefile`](https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/blob/af62fa61e6cbd88d0798963211e73e5ba0d55e6d/sphinx/templates/quickstart/Makefile.new_t) structure. ### Automatically opening the browser sphinx-autobuild can open the homepage of the generated documentation in your default browser. Passing `--open-browser` will enable this behaviour. ### Automatically selecting a port sphinx-autobuild asks the operating system for a free port number and use that for its server. Passing `--port=0` will enable this behaviour. ## Workflow suggestions ### Working on a Sphinx HTML theme When working on a Sphinx HTML theme, add the source directory of the theme as a watch directory. It is also recommended to disable Sphinx's incremental builds by passing the `-a` option to sphinx-autobuild. ``` sphinx-autobuild -a docs docs/_build/html --watch path/to/theme ``` This results in slower builds, but it ensures that all pages are built from the same state of the HTML theme. It also works around a [known issue in Sphinx](#user-content-relevant-sphinx-bugs) which causes significant problems during theme development. ### Working on multiple projects When working on multiple Sphinx documentation projects simultaneously, it is required to use different output directories for each project. It is also recommended to use `--port=0` and `--open-browser` to avoid needing to manually manage ports and opening browser windows (which can get tedious quickly). ``` sphinx-autobuild --port=0 --open-browser pikachu/docs pikachu/docs/_build/html & sphinx-autobuild --port=0 --open-browser magickarp/docs magickarp/docs/_build/html & ``` ## Relevant Sphinx Bugs Sphinx does not [detect changes in non-document files in incremental mode](https://github.com/GaretJax/sphinx-autobuild/issues/34), like theme files, static files and source code used with autodoc. At the time of writing, the only known workaround is to instruct Sphinx to rebuild the relevant pages. This can be done by disabling incremental mode (with `-a`) or passing relevant `filenames` in addition to source and output directory in the CLI. ## Acknowledgements This project stands on the shoulders of giants like [Sphinx], [LiveReload] and [python-livereload], without whom this project would not be possible. Many thanks to everyone who has [contributed code](https://github.com/GaretJax/sphinx-autobuild/graphs/contributors) as well as participated in [discussions on the issue tracker](https://github.com/GaretJax/sphinx-autobuild/issues).
