We used recommonmark so that we can use markdown in sphinx but it is
buggy and now so switch to better supported MyST-parser.
* Fixed incorrect heading warnings in markdown.
* Added sphinx toctree to markdown using directive as required by MyST.
* Upgraded Sphinx to 4.3
Ref: https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io
- Use sphinxcontrib.spelling with custom wordlist.
- Skip the checking of the modules documents as they raise
false-positives.
- Add a setup.py spellcheck_docs command.
- Fix spelling and other issues.
- Add a doc favicon.
- Updates to the sphinx conf
- Applied Mock fixes to build on Python 3.
- Group patches at bottom of conf file.
- Use just a major.minor for version.
- Specify Sphinx 2.0 version requirement.
- Move requirements.txt to docs dir.
- Add readthedocs config
- Fix docstring code block rst formatting issue.
- Change the layout and contents of docs to be better organised and
follow ideas from: https://www.divio.com/blog/documentation/
- Use markdown for non-technical documents to speed up writing.
- Added new sections and imported documents from Trac wiki.
Build fixes:
- Added a patch to fix recommonmark 0.4 and doc referencing:
https://github.com/rtfd/recommonmark/issues/93
- Set docs build in tox to Py2.7 since there are problems with autodoc
mocking multiple inheritance on Python 3 resulting in metaclass errors.
- Supressed warning about `modules.rst` not in the toctree by creating
a static `modules.rst` with `:orphan:` file directive and add to git.
Also skip creating this toc file with sphinx-apidoc in setup and tox.
- Simplified finding exported RPC and JSON API methods by adding an
autodoc custom class directive. Removed unneeded __rpcapi.py.
