controllers and models in web2py are written in python but are not
python modules. They use objects
(request,response,...,local_import,...) that are not imported.
Sphinx does not understand this.
I am sure there is a way around (for example add to your models and
controllers:
if 1:
from gluon import *
request,response,session,cache,T = \
current.request,current.response,
current.session,current.cache,current.T
from gluon.compileapp import local_import_aux as local_import
) but I cannot say for sure without details about what you are trying
to do.
