The generation is done with Sphinx, which DPDK already uses, with slightly modified configuration of the sidebar present in an if block.
DTS dependencies do not need to be installed, but there is the option to install doc build dependencies with Poetry: poetry install --with docs The build itself may be run with: meson setup <meson_build_dir> -Denable_docs=true ninja -C <meson_build_dir> The above will do a full DPDK build with docs. To build just docs: meson setup <meson_build_dir> ninja -C <meson_build_dir> dts-doc Python3.10 is required to build the DTS API docs. The patchset contains the .rst sources which Sphinx uses to generate the html pages. These were first generated with the sphinx-apidoc utility and modified to provide a better look. The documentation just doesn't look that good without the modifications and there isn't enough configuration options to achieve that without manual changes to the .rst files. This introduces extra maintenance which involves adding new .rst files when a new Python module is added or changing the .rst structure if the Python directory/file structure is changed (moved, renamed files). This small maintenance burden is outweighed by the flexibility afforded by the ability to make manual changes to the .rst files. v10: Fix dts doc generation issue: Only copy the custom rss file if it exists. v11: Added the config option autodoc_mock_imports, which eliminates the need for DTS dependencies. Added a script that find out which imports need to be added to autodoc_mock_imports. The script also check the required Python version for building DTS docs. Removed tags from the two affected patches which will need to be reviewed again. v12: Added paramiko to the required dependencies of get-dts-deps.py. v13: Fixed build error: TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for |: 'NoneType' and 'Transport' v14: Fixed install error: ERROR: File 'dts/doc/html' could not be found This required me to put the built docs into dts/doc which is outside the DPDK API doc dir, resulting in linking between DPDK and DTS api docs not working properly. I addressed this by adding a symlink to the build dir. This way the link works after installing the docs and the symlink is just one extra file in the build dir.
