@reactive-firewall,
Improved Plan for Implementing Issue #113
Objective: Make the branch name in the linkcode_resolve
function of docs/conf.py
dynamic, allowing for better maintainability and portability.
Add at the top of docs/conf.py
:
import os
# Define the branch name for linkcode_resolve
linkcode_branch = os.environ.get("LINKCODE_BRANCH", "stable")
"""
linkcode_branch: The name of the branch used in the GitHub links generated by the linkcode_resolve function.
Defaults to 'stable', but can be overridden by setting the LINKCODE_BRANCH environment variable.
"""
linkcode_branch
to the value of the LINKCODE_BRANCH
environment variable if it exists; otherwise, it defaults to "stable"
.linkcode_resolve
Function to Use the Configuration VariableUpdate the linkcode_resolve
function:
def linkcode_resolve(domain, info):
"""
Resolve the GitHub URL corresponding to the Python object.
Parameters:
domain (str): The domain of the object (e.g., 'py' for Python).
info (dict): Information about the object.
Returns:
str or None: The GitHub URL pointing to the source code, or None if not applicable.
"""
if domain != "py" or not info["module"]:
return None
filename = info["module"].replace(".", "/")
theResult = "{prefix}/blob/{branch}/{file}.py".format(
prefix=linkcode_url_prefix, branch=linkcode_branch, file=filename
)
if "/multicast.py" in theResult:
theResult = theResult.replace("/multicast.py", "/multicast/__init__.py")
if "/tests.py" in theResult:
theResult = theResult.replace("/tests.py", "/tests/__init__.py")
return theResult
"stable"
with the linkcode_branch
variable.Leverage Environment Variables:
os.environ.get()
allows users to set the branch dynamically without modifying the code.Default Behavior:
"stable"
maintains current behavior if no environment variable is set.Document the New Configuration Option:
README.md
or appropriate documentation files about LINKCODE_BRANCH
.### Building Documentation with Custom Branch Links
By default, the documentation links to the `stable` branch on GitHub. To override this, set the `LINKCODE_BRANCH` environment variable:
```bash
export LINKCODE_BRANCH="your-branch-name"
make html # or your documentation build command
Verify Default Behavior:
LINKCODE_BRANCH
and ensure links point to the stable
branch.Verify Custom Branch Behavior:
LINKCODE_BRANCH
to a different branch name and rebuild.Ensure No Breakages:
This improved plan aligns with the project's coding standards and emphasizes:
Code Style and Conventions:
Maintainability:
Portability:
Documentation:
Please review the plan and let me know if you have any suggestions or require further adjustments.
🤔 First, this plan makes sense! Let's go with this. 🔧 Second, a couple of tweaks:
GITHUB_SHA
(for GHA) and CIRCLE_SHA1
(for CircleCI)DOCS_BUILD_REF=$(${GIT:-git} rev-parse --verify HEAD)
as it shows how to dynamically set the value (for example if done by a git-hook locally)Refs:
The branch name "stable" is hardcoded in the
linkcode_resolve
function indocs/conf.py
. To enhance maintainability, consider using a variable or configuration option to specify the branch.See PR #110: https://github.com/reactive-firewall/multicast/pull/110 and the specific comment: https://github.com/reactive-firewall/multicast/pull/110#discussion_r1764390519 for more details.
