Install the package, and add it to your requirements.txt
:
pip install sphinx-library
Next, edit the conf.py
file in your Sphinx project to use the Library theme:
# conf.py
html_theme = "library"
Also set the appropriate sidebars in your conf.py
file. Library comes with
a few to enable various navigation elements in the sidebar; add, remove, or
reorder them as you see fit:
# conf.py
html_sidebars = {
"**": [
"about.html", # Project name, description, etc.
"searchbox.html", # Search.
"extralinks.html", # Links specified in theme options.
"globaltoc.html", # Global table of contents.
#"localtoc.html", # Contents of the current page.
"readingmodes.html", # Light/sepia/dark color schemes.
"sponsors.html", # Fancy sponsor links.
]
}
Additional sidebars are built-in to Sphinx. See html_sidebars documentation.
Finally, it is important to specify the language of your documentation. This is not only an HTML best practice --- it also enables additional typographic features of the theme, such as the ability to automatically hyphenate words when wrapping lines (just like a printed book).
# conf.py
language = "en"
