I have been using sphinx to document some teaching notes and it has worked
pretty well for my needs when I generate HTML. I have been able to make
use of the 'container' directive to style different kinds of text blocks in
different ways since the HTML output adds a class attribute to the
generated div block.
However, I would like to do the same thing with latex output so I can
generate PDF output with these text blocks as named environments (I have a
custom style file with these environments already set up).
However, the current latex translator/writer ignores container directives
(the visit/depart methods just have 'pass'). My first thought is that I
could create a subclass of LaTeXTranslator that simply implements these
visitor methods as follows:
def visit_container(self, node):
self.out.append(r'\begin{')
self.out.append(node['name'])
self.out.append(r'}')
def depart_container(self, node):
self.out.append(r'\end{')
self.out.append(node['name'])
self.out.append(r'}')
I don't know if this is sufficient for the translator or not.
I have tried to create new translator/writer classes which seems to require
a new builder class as well. However, I am getting bogged down trying to
understand how to write these classes and how to integrate them into my
environment.
Any help or pointers would be appreciated.
