************* Configuration ************* Theme options ============= The following options can be defined in your project's ``conf.py`` file, using the :confval:`html_theme_options ` configuration option. For example: .. code:: python html_theme_options = { 'analytics_id': 'G-XXXXXXXXXX', # Provided by Google in your dashboard 'analytics_anonymize_ip': False, 'logo_only': False, 'display_version': True, 'prev_next_buttons_location': 'bottom', 'style_external_links': False, 'vcs_pageview_mode': '', 'style_nav_header_background': 'white', # Toc options 'collapse_navigation': True, 'sticky_navigation': True, 'navigation_depth': 4, 'includehidden': True, 'titles_only': False } Table of contents options ------------------------- The following options change how :rst:dir:`sphinx:toctree` directives generate documentation navigation. .. confval:: collapse_navigation With this enabled, navigation entries are not expandable -- the ``[+]`` icons next to each entry are removed. :type: boolean :default: ``True`` .. note:: Setting :confval:`collapse_navigation` to ``False`` and using a high value for :confval:`navigation_depth` on projects with many files and a deep file structure can cause long compilation times and can result in HTML files that are significantly larger in file size. .. confval:: sticky_navigation Scroll the navigation with the main page content as you scroll the page. :type: boolean :default: ``True`` .. confval:: navigation_depth The maximum depth of the table of contents tree. Set this to ``-1`` to allow unlimited depth. :type: integer :default: ``4`` .. confval:: includehidden Specifies if the navigation includes hidden table(s) of contents -- that is, any :rst:dir:`sphinx:toctree` directive that is marked with the ``:hidden:`` option. :type: boolean :default: ``True`` .. confval:: titles_only When enabled, page subheadings are not included in the navigation. :type: boolean :default: False .. _table of contents configuration options: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/templating.html#toctree .. TODO . HTML context options ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Miscellaneous options --------------------- .. confval:: analytics_id If specified, Google Analytics' `gtag.js`_ is included in your pages. Set the value to the ID provided to you by google (like ``UA-XXXXXXX`` or ``G-XXXXXXXXXX``). :type: string .. _gtag.js: https://developers.google.com/gtagjs .. confval:: analytics_anonymize_ip Anonymize visitor IP addresses in Google Analytics. :type: boolean :default: ``False`` .. confval:: canonical_url This will specify a `canonical URL`_ meta link element to tell search engines which URL should be ranked as the primary URL for your documentation. This is important if you have multiple URLs that your documentation is available through. The URL points to the root path of the documentation and requires a trailing slash. :type: URL .. deprecated:: 0.6.0 Use :confval:`sphinx:html_baseurl` instead. .. _canonical URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_link_element .. confval:: display_version If ``True``, the version number is shown at the top of the sidebar. :type: boolean :default: ``True`` .. confval:: logo_only Only display the logo image, do not display the project name at the top of the sidebar :type: boolean :default: ``False`` .. confval:: prev_next_buttons_location Location to display :guilabel:`Next` and :guilabel:`Previous` buttons. This can be either ``bottom``, ``top``, ``both`` , or ``None``. :type: string :default: ``bottom`` .. confval:: style_external_links Add an icon next to external links. :type: boolean :default: ``False`` .. confval:: vcs_pageview_mode Changes how to view files when using ``display_github``, ``display_gitlab``, etc. When using GitHub or GitLab this can be: ``blob`` (default), ``edit``, or ``raw``. On Bitbucket, this can be either: ``view`` (default) or ``edit``. :type: string :default: ``blob`` or ``view`` .. confval:: style_nav_header_background Changes the background of the search area in the navigation bar. The value can be anything valid in a CSS `background` property. :type: string :default: ``#2980B9`` File-wide metadata ================== The following options can be used as :ref:`file-wide metadata `: .. confval:: github_url Force the :guilabel:`Edit on GitHub` button to use the configured URL. .. confval:: bitbucket_url Force the :guilabel:`Edit on Bitbucket` button to use the configured URL. .. confval:: gitlab_url Force the :guilabel:`Edit on GitLab` button to use the configured URL. Other configuration =================== Adding a logo ------------- Using the Sphinx standard option :py:confval:`html_logo `, you can set an image file to be used as a logo at the top of the sidebar. The theme option :py:confval:`logo_only` also allows for *only* the logo to be shown at the top of the sidebar. Adding custom CSS or Javascript ------------------------------- Adding custom CSS or Javascript can help you alter the look and feel of this theme without forking the theme for local use. In order to add custom CSS or Javascript without disrupting the existing theme files, you can :doc:`add files to be included in your documentation output `. How the table of contents displays ================================== Currently the left menu will build based upon any ``toctree`` directives defined in your source files. It outputs 4 levels of depth by default, to allow for quick navigation through topics. If no TOC trees are defined, Sphinx's default behavior is to use the page headings instead. It's important to note that if you don't follow the same styling for your reST headings across your documents, the TOC tree will build incorrectly, and the resulting menu might not show the correct depth when it renders. Also note that by default the table of contents is set with ``includehidden=True``. This allows you to set a hidden TOC in your index file with the :ref:`:hidden: ` property that will allow you to build a TOC without it rendering in your index. By default, the navigation will "stick" to the screen as you scroll. However if your TOC is not tall enough, it will revert to static positioning. To disable the sticky navigation altogether, change the :confval:`sticky_navigation` theme option.
