pdoc's main feature is a focus on simplicity: pdoc aims to do one thing and do it well.
Under the hood...
pdoc
will automatically link identifiers in your docstrings to their corresponding documentation.pdoc
respects your __all__
variable when present.pdoc
will traverse the abstract syntax tree to extract type annotations and docstrings from constructors as well.pdoc
will automatically try to resolve type annotation string literals as forward references.pdoc
will use inheritance to resolve type annotations and docstrings for class members.If you have substantially more complex documentation needs, we recommend using Sphinx!
As an open source project, pdoc welcomes contributions of all forms.
This project is not associated with "pdoc3", which often falsely assumes our name. Quoting @BurntSushi, the original author of pdoc:
I'm pretty disgusted that someone has taken a project I built, relicensed it, attempted to erase its entry on the Python Wiki, released it under effectively the same name and, worst of all, associated it with Nazi symbols.
In contrast, the pdoc project strives to uphold a healthy community where everyone is treated with respect. Everyone is welcome to contribute as long as they adhere to basic civility. We expressly distance ourselves from the use of Nazi symbols and ideology.
The pdoc project was originally created by Andrew Gallant and is currently maintained by Maximilian Hils.
