A Sphinx extension that builds an HTML gallery of examples from any set of Python scripts. Check out the documentation for introductions on how to use it and more...
Sphinx-Gallery can be used to generate an example gallery from .py
files,
for a library,
as well as a stand-alone web page showcasing examples of a particular
Python package, module, or class.
- Let's get started with a simple example or check out the
- documentation for introductions on how to use it and more...
You can do a direct install via pip
by using:
$ pip install sphinx-gallery
Tip
Sphinx-Gallery also has support for scraping images from Matplotlib
and Matplotlib-based packages such as Seaborn.
We recommend installing system optipng
binaries to reduce
the file sizes of the generated PNG files.
Let's assume simple scenario, you have a Python package with a directory structure like this:
├── doc │ ├── conf.py │ ├── index.rst | ├── make.bat │ └── Makefile ├── my_python_module │ ├── __init__.py │ └── mod.py └── examples ├── plot_example.py └── README.txt (or .rst)
Enable Sphinx-Gallery by adding the following to your doc/conf.py
:
extensions = [
...
'sphinx_gallery.gen_gallery',
]
# path to the examples scripts
sphinx_gallery_conf = {
'examples_dirs': '../examples', # path to your example scripts
'gallery_dirs': 'auto_examples', # path to where to save gallery generated output
}
Finally just compile your docs as usual.
Sphinx-Gallery will generate reST files, adding execution outputs, and save them in auto_examples/
.
Add a link to auto_examples/index.rst
to include the gallery in your documentation.
