It turns out it is easier to regenerate Sphinx-mandated structure in
get_objects than to maintain two separate data structures. I should have
realized that before.
New directive .. statementlist:: generates table of statements in a
the given domain (named.conf or rndc.conf). The table contains link to
definition, short description, and also list of tags.
Short description and tags have to be provided by user using optional
parameters. E.g.:
.. statement:: max-cache-size
:tags: resolver, cache
:short: Short description
.. statementlist:: is currently not parametrized.
This modification is based on Sphinx "tutorial" extension "TODO".
The main trick is to use placeholder node for .. statementlist:: and
replace it with table at later stage, when all source files were
processed and all cross-references can be resolved.
Beware, some details in Sphinx docs are not up-to-date, it's better
to read Sphinx and docutil sources.
New and currently unused values can be provided using this syntax:
.. statement:: max-cache-size
:tags: resolver, cache
:short: Short description
The domain stores them in its internal structures for further use.
The extension provides a "Sphinx domain factory". Each new Sphinx domain
defines a namespace for configuration statements so named.conf and
rndc.conf do not clash. Currently the Sphinx domains are instantiated
twice and resuling domains are named "namedconf" and "rndcconf".
This commit adds a single new directive:
.. statement:: max-cache-size
It is namespaced like this:
.. namedconf:statement:: max-cache-size
This directive generates a new anchor for configuration statement and it
can be referenced like :any:`max-cache-size` (if the identifier is
unique), or more specific :namedconf:ref:`max-cache-size`.
It is based on Sphinx "tutorial" extension "recipe".
Beware, some details in Sphinx docs are not up-to-date, it's better
to read Sphinx and docutil sources.
