sphinx-issues

PyPI badge Build status

A Sphinx extension for linking to your project's issue tracker. Includes roles for linking to issues, pull requests, user profiles, with built-in support for GitHub (though this works with other services).

Example

For an example usage, check out marshmallow's changelog, which makes use of the roles in this library.

Installation and Configuration

pip install sphinx-issues

Add sphinx_issues to extensions in your conf.py.

The extension has default values for GitHub projects. Add the issues_github_path config variable and you are good to go:

# docs/conf.py

# ...
extensions = [
    # ...
    "sphinx_issues"
]

# Path to GitHub repo {group}/{project}  (note that `group` is the GitHub user or organization)
issues_github_path = "sloria/marshmallow"

# which is the equivalent to:
issues_uri = "https://github.com/{group}/{project}/issues/{issue}"
issues_prefix = "#"
issues_pr_uri = "https://github.com/{group}/{project}/pull/{pr}"
issues_pr_prefix = "#"
issues_commit_uri = "https://github.com/{group}/{project}/commit/{commit}"
issues_commit_prefix = "@"
issues_user_uri = "https://github.com/{user}"
issues_user_prefix = "@"

You can also use this extension with other issue trackers. Here is how you could configure it for a hosted GitLab instance:

# docs/conf.py

# ...
extensions = [
    # ...
    "sphinx_issues"
]

#  Default repo {group}/{project} of gitlab project
issues_default_group_project = "myteam/super_great_project"
issues_uri = "https://gitlab.company.com/{group}/{project}/-/issues/{issue}"
issues_prefix = "#"
issues_pr_uri = "https://gitlab.company.com/{group}/{project}/-/merge_requests/{pr}"
issues_pr_prefix = "!"
issues_commit_uri = "https://gitlab.company.com/{group}/{project}/-/commit/{commit}"
issues_commit_prefix = "@"
issues_user_uri = "https://gitlab.company.com/{user}"
issues_user_prefix = "@"

Usage inside the documentation

Use the :issue: and :pr: roles in your docs like so:

See issue :issue:`42`

See issues :issue:`12,13`

See :issue:`sloria/konch#45`.

See PR :pr:`58`

The :user: role links to user profiles (GitHub by default, but can be configured via the issues_user_uri config variable).

The :commit: role links to commits.

Fixed in :commit:`6bb9124d5e9dbb2f7b52864c3d8af7feb1b69403`.
Thanks to :user:`bitprophet` for the idea!

You can also change the text of the hyperlink:

This change is due to :user:`Andreas Mueller <amueller>`.

The syntax :role:`My custom title <target>` works for all roles of this extension.

Fix bad bug :issue:`123, 199 (Duplicate) <123>`

The :pypi: role links to project pages on PyPI.

:pypi:`sphinx-issues` - A Sphinx extension for linking to your project's issue tracker.

Important note about :cwe: and :cve: roles

The :cwe: and :cve: are included within newer versions of Sphinx. If you use these roles and are using Sphinx<8.1, you will need to install sphinx-issues<5.

Credits

Credit goes to Jeff Forcier for his work on the releases extension, which is a full-featured solution for generating changelogs. I just needed a quick way to reference GitHub issues in my docs, so I yoinked the bits that I needed.
