If you wish to include your extension in this organization, +simply follow the instructions provided in the `github-administration`__ +project. This is optional and there are several extensions hosted elsewhere. +The `awesome-sphinxdoc`__ and `sphinx-extensions`__ projects are both curated +lists of Sphinx packages, and many packages use the +`Framework :: Sphinx :: Extension`__ and +`Framework :: Sphinx :: Theme`__ trove classifiers for Sphinx extensions and +themes, respectively. + +.. __: https://github.com/sphinx-contrib/ +.. __: https://github.com/sphinx-contrib/github-administration +.. __: https://github.com/yoloseem/awesome-sphinxdoc +.. __: https://sphinx-extensions.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ +.. __: https://pypi.org/search/?c=Framework+%3A%3A+Sphinx+%3A%3A+Extension +.. __: https://pypi.org/search/?c=Framework+%3A%3A+Sphinx+%3A%3A+Theme + +Where to put your own extensions? +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Extensions local to a project should be put within the project's directory +structure. Set Python's module search path, ``sys.path``, accordingly so that +Sphinx can find them. For example, if your extension ``foo.py`` lies in the +``exts`` subdirectory of the project root, put into :file:`conf.py`:: + + import sys, os + + sys.path.append(os.path.abspath('exts')) + + extensions = ['foo'] + +You can also install extensions anywhere else on ``sys.path``, e.g. in the +``site-packages`` directory. -- cgit v1.2.3
