"""Sphinx documentation plugin used to document tasks. Introduction ============ Usage ----- The Celery extension for Sphinx requires Sphinx 2.0 or later. Add the extension to your :file:`docs/conf.py` configuration module: .. code-block:: python extensions = (..., 'celery.contrib.sphinx') If you'd like to change the prefix for tasks in reference documentation then you can change the ``celery_task_prefix`` configuration value: .. code-block:: python celery_task_prefix = '(task)' # < default With the extension installed `autodoc` will automatically find task decorated objects (e.g. when using the automodule directive) and generate the correct (as well as add a ``(task)`` prefix), and you can also refer to the tasks using `:task:proj.tasks.add` syntax. Use ``.. autotask::`` to alternatively manually document a task. Sphinx 9.0+ Compatibility ------------------------- Sphinx 9.0 introduced a rewritten autodoc implementation. The Celery extension requires the legacy class-based autodoc mode to function correctly. When using Sphinx 9.0 or later, add the following to your :file:`conf.py`: .. code-block:: python autodoc_use_legacy_class_based = True The extension will automatically enable this setting if not configured, but it is recommended to set it explicitly to avoid warnings.
