scripts for building documentation on docs.python.org

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-invalidation

If 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:

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.
