sphinx-apidoc usage - multiple source python directories
22:38 28 Oct 2012

So I have my python source files in two different directories:-

e.g.

~/work/myproject
~/.virtualenvs/myproject

How do I use sphinx-apidoc to look in both directories recursively to generate my reST files?

Obviously,

sphinx-apidoc -o docs/source ~/work/myproject

works perfectly fine but when I attempt to run

sphinx-apidoc -o docs/source ~/.virtualenvs/myproject

again, sphinx tells me that "docs/source/modules.rst already exists, skipping" which of course is true as I have already run sphinx-apidoc once to generate it.

So how do I execute it once and search in both directories?

python python-sphinx sphinx-apidoc
