Welcome! This sphinx extension provides some useful extensions to the Sphinxs
autodoc_ extension. Those are

It creates a Table of Contents in the style of the autosummary_ extension
with methods, classes, functions and attributes
As you can include the __init__ method documentation for via the
autoclass_content_ configuration value,
we provide the autodata_content configuration value to include
the documentation from the __call__ method
You can exclude the string representation of specific objects. E.g. if you
have a large dictionary using the not_document_data configuration
value.

See the Documentation on Readthedocs_ for more details.

Requirements

The package only requires Sphinx_ to be installed. It has been tested for
versions higher than 1.3.

.. _Sphinx: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master

Quickstart

In order to activate the autodocsumm extension, you have to list it in your
conf.py:

.. code-block:: python

extensions = [
    'sphinx.ext.autodoc',
    ...,
    'autodocsumm',
]

Once this is done, you can use the :autosummary: option for autodoc
directives to generate a table at the top, e.g.:

.. code-block:: rst

.. automodule:: my.awesome.module
    :autosummary:

Optionally, you can make autodocsumm active by default for all autodoc
directives by adding in conf.py:

.. code-block:: python

autodoc_default_options = {
    'autosummary': True,
}
