confusion of required arguments

[Borda]

Hello, I would love to try this extension in https://github.com/Lightning-AI/torchmetrics/pull/2518, but so far hitting some issues; the latest one with installing from master (lat release does not work with py3.9, https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx-autobuild/issues/155#issuecomment-2112022210)

Following the example in the readme, https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx-autobuild#using-with-makefile, I get the following error:

make[1]: Entering directory '/home/jirka/Workingspace/pt-metrics/docs'
sphinx-autobuild "source" "build" -W 
usage: sphinx-autobuild [OPTIONS] SOURCEDIR OUTPUTDIR [FILENAMES...]
sphinx-autobuild: error: the following arguments are required: sourcedir, outputdir, filenames
make[1]: *** [Makefile:22: livehtml] Error 2

Based on the usage: sphinx-autobuild [OPTIONS] SOURCEDIR OUTPUTDIR [FILENAMES...] filenames are optional, but in fact, they are required or what am I missing?

sphinx-autobuild "source" "build" -W

Does sphinx-autobuild -W "source" "build" work? (asking based on the help error's message, which indicates options need to before the positional arguments.

Does sphinx-autobuild -W "source" "build" work?

not really, getting this error:

metrics/docs$ sphinx-autobuild -W "source" "build"
usage: sphinx-autobuild [OPTIONS] SOURCEDIR OUTPUTDIR [FILENAMES...]
sphinx-autobuild: error: the following arguments are required: sourcedir, outputdir, filenames
