+Synopsis
+--------
+
+**sphinx-autogen** [*options*] <sourcefile> ...
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+:program:`sphinx-autogen` is a tool for automatic generation of Sphinx sources
+that, using the :py:mod:`~sphinx.ext.autodoc` extension, document items included
+in :rst:dir:`autosummary` listing(s).
+
+*sourcefile* is the path to one or more reStructuredText documents containing
+:rst:dir:`autosummary` entries with the ``:toctree::`` option set. *sourcefile*
+can be an :py:mod:`fnmatch`-style pattern.
+
+Options
+-------
+
+.. program:: sphinx-autogen
+
+.. option:: -o <outputdir>
+
+   Directory to place the output file. If it does not exist, it is created.
+   Defaults to the value passed to the ``:toctree:`` option.
+
+.. option:: -s <suffix>, --suffix <suffix>
+
+   Default suffix to use for generated files. Defaults to ``rst``.
+
+.. option:: -t <templates>, --templates <templates>
+
+   Custom template directory. Defaults to ``None``.
+
+.. option:: -i, --imported-members
+
+   Document imported members.
+
+.. option:: -a, --respect-module-all
+
+   Document exactly the members in a module's ``__all__`` attribute.
+
+Example
+-------
+
+Given the following directory structure::
+
+    docs
+    ├── index.rst
+    └── ...
+    foobar
+    ├── foo
+    │   └── __init__.py
+    └── bar
+        ├── __init__.py
+        └── baz
+            └── __init__.py
+
+and assuming ``docs/index.rst`` contained the following:
+
+.. code-block:: rst
+
+    Modules
+    =======
+
+    .. autosummary::
+       :toctree: modules
+
+       foobar.foo
+       foobar.bar
+       foobar.bar.baz
+
+If you run the following:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    $ PYTHONPATH=. sphinx-autogen docs/index.rst
+
+then the following stub files will be created in ``docs``::
+
+    docs
+    ├── index.rst
+    └── modules
+        ├── foobar.bar.rst
+        ├── foobar.bar.baz.rst
+        └── foobar.foo.rst
+
+and each of those files will contain a :py:mod:`~sphinx.ext.autodoc` directive
+and some other information.
