I want to extend [JinjaFunctions‎](https://github.com/useblocks/sphinx-needs/blob/1de1a7a047bfc7912ea0aa779ffb187def7a5254/sphinx_needs/directives/needuml.py#L257C1-L257C22) to cover additional customize functions. So an interface like [needs-render-context](https://sphinx-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration.html#needs-render-context) would be cool.

`No needs passed the filter` in [needtable](https://sphinx-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/directives/needtable.html#needtable) and [needlist](https://sphinx-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/directives/needlist.html) documentation. We should provide examples which work.

in calc_sum added needs.values() as parameter to filter_single_need()

try to implement #1452

[calc_sum](https://sphinx-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dynamic_functions.html#sphinx_needs.functions.common.calc_sum) does not provide the needs in scope to the filter function, so we cannot use them in the calc_sum filter string. You can see in current [source](https://github.com/useblocks/sphinx-needs/blob/c25df13fd903bfbcf20bab3fccbdd09ec4e1ab2e/sphinx_needs/functions/common.py#L386) that we...

The filter [c.this_doc()](https://sphinx-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/filter.html#filtering-for-needs-on-the-current-page) is not working with needbar and needpie, and maybe not with needsequence. How shall we change the code? In [needbar](https://github.com/useblocks/sphinx-needs/blob/500a4486e32c37f6c6d85a67d257f6d5a97d9456/sphinx_needs/directives/needbar.py#L305) and [needpie](https://github.com/useblocks/sphinx-needs/blob/500a4486e32c37f6c6d85a67d257f6d5a97d9456/sphinx_needs/directives/needpie.py#L168) currently we use `filter_needs_parts`. Shall...

Bugs in links_from_content

In the Dynamic Function [links_from_content](https://sphinx-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dynamic_functions.html#links-from-content) are bugs: First: It is not detecting needpart, so ``:need:`id.part` `` is not working. Secoundly, if we do have a content like: ``` content =...

sphinx-needs 6.1.0 is incompatible with python 3.14

it looks like Sphinx-Needs 6.1.0 is incompatible with Python 3.14: build with [python 3.13.7](https://github.com/PhilipPartsch/playground/actions/runs/19064137171/job/54450487761) is working build with [python 3.14.0](https://github.com/PhilipPartsch/playground/actions/runs/19063645699) is not working

Example for #1566

With Sphinx-Needs 6.0.0 it is not possible to use variant information on links

With Sphinx-Needs < 6.0.0 it was possible to set variants on "Sphinx-Needs element" links. With #1524 it is no longer possible. @ubmarco: What is the work around to get it...

Support of sphinx-build --define with sphinx-needs configuration

1

Sphinx-build offers a functionality to [override configuration parameters](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/man/sphinx-build.html#cmdoption-sphinx-build-D) of sphinx and extensions. This can be used, to give in variant specific information to sphinx/sphinx-needs. Especially [Needs variants-for-options-support](https://sphinx-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/directives/need.html#variants-for-options-support), we want to...
