README.md

This repository contains scripts for automatically building the Python documentation on docs.python.org.

How to test it?

The following command should build all maintained versions and translations in ./www, beware it can take a few hours:

python3 ./build_docs.py --quick --build-root ./build_root --www-root ./www --log-directory ./logs --group $(id -g) --skip-cache-invalidation

If you don't need to build all translations of all branches, add --language en --branch main.

Check current version

Install tools_requirements.txt then run python check_versions.py ../cpython/ (pointing to a real CPython clone) to see which version of Sphinx we're using where:
