griffe-autodocstringstyle¤

Set docstring style to 'auto' for external packages.

Installation¤

This project is available to sponsors only, through my Insiders program. See Insiders explanation and installation instructions.

Usage¤

Enable the griffe_autodocstringstyle extension. Now all packages loaded from a virtual environment will have their docstrings parsed with the auto style (automatically guessing the docstring style).

Use the exclude option to pass package names that shouldn't be considered. This can be useful if you must first install your sources as a package before loading/documenting them (meaning they end up in the virtual environment too).

              exclude:
              - my_package
