Hi,

I start to use Sphinx for our project (http://propulseart.sat.qc.ca)
and I wish to autogenerate all the docs from the code (à la epydoc).
So I have written a script that parse the directory tree of a project/
package and create all the ReST files (with the automodule directive
in it) necessary to produce the docs from the code.

I was wondering if you think it could be a good idea to bundle a
script of this kind with Sphinx?

You can see my script here:
https://svn.sat.qc.ca/trac/miville/browser/trunk/py/docs/generate_modules.py

It's a first version but I think it could easily modify/extend to be
more generic and flexible. For example I can use optparse to add some
flags to specifiy the automodule options or add a flag to specify a
file with a list of exclusions. Maybe it could be a good idea to add a
configuration file to keep the settings, etc.

To use it you call it with the package directory as first argument.
All others arguments are path that will be excluded from the
processing.

As a matter of fact, I just added 2 proposals and 4 bug report to the
Sphinx issue tracker!

And thanks for the great work.

Etienne
