Reading PEP 257 and 258 I got the impression that I could document module attributes and these would be available in the __doc__ attribute of the object.
So things like the one below are something I got used to do, but that don't work after all, as I learned today: value_factory = lambda _, row: row[0] """Row factory. To be used with single-column queries.""" There are other things I could possibly do, like turning that lambda into a function, or document attributes in the module docstring. They are fair responses. But did I read docstring extraction rules in PEP 258 wrong by assuming that the above example would make into the __doc__ attribute? And if so, short of documenting attributes in the module docstring, is there another way I can document individual attributes? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
