This repository contains scripts for automatically building the Python documentation on docs.python.org.
How to test it?
The following command should build all maintained versions and
translations in ./www, beware it can take a few hours:
python3 ./build_docs.py --quick --build-root ./build_root --www-root ./www --log-directory ./logs --group $(id -g) --skip-cache-invalidationIf you don't need to build all translations of all branches, add
--language en --branch main.
Check current version
Install tools_requirements.txt then run python check_versions.py ../cpython/ (pointing to a real CPython clone) to see which version
of Sphinx we're using where:
Docs build server is configured to use Sphinx 2.3.1

The github hook server
build_docs_server.py is a simple HTTP server handling Github Webhooks
requests to build the doc when needed. It only needs push events.
Its logging can be configured by giving a yaml file path to the
--logging-config argument.
By default the loglevel is DEBUG on stderr, the default config can
be found in the code so one can bootstrap a different config from it.
