proceduralimage Sphinx extension
pip install sphinxcontrib-proceduralimage==0.2
This package adds the proceduralimage directive to Sphinx_. .. _Sphinx: http://sphinx.pocoo.org/ It allows a python code snippet to be supplied, that generates an image, that will be included in the documentation. It adds a single directive, `proceduralimage`. It takes a block of python code, executes the code and extracts the local variables `image_data` and `alt`. image_data will be saved to a .png in _images and embedded and the alt variable will be used as the images alt tag. Acknowledgements ---------------- The code is based almost entirely on sphinx.ext.graphviz.
