What's the plan to support python?

Open arache opened this issue 5 years ago • 7 comments

Hi, is there any plan to support python language? It has been "coming soon" for a long time on the website, but seems like it's not on the roadmap at all. https://dotnet.github.io/docfx/tutorial/universalreference/intro_multiple_langs_support.html#3-supported-languages

From issues before, I do not hear much user voice for python support. Although we have a tool for this, but we have not test integration into docfx and add to document. We can keep this issue open to track user voice.

@superyyrrzz cool, i'm trying that tool now. My case is like, we have a project heavily using c# and python. we're using docfx to generate C# doc and it would be great if we can do the same for python so they'll be in the same style.

Landing page:

DocFX can produce documentation from source code (including C#, F#, Visual Basic, REST, JavaScript, Java, Python and TypeScript) as well as raw Markdown files.

Multiple Languages support:

  1. Supported Languages JavaScript TypeScript (coming soon ...) Python (coming soon ...)

Very inconsistent, what is up and down here?

I would love support for more languages if the architecture was updated to allow for integrating multiple language formats docfx could be a nice alternative to MKDocs.

In my concrete situation I need:

  • Python
  • Protobuf
  • C++
  • C#

So right now I am considering "patching" together something using various tools to output Mark Down files, and then use MKDocs to combine it all into one cohesive landing page.

Docfx does not natively support python, but provides an extension mechanism to support additional languages.
