# installability of sphinx (https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/4375)
# we dont use the standard `sphinx-build` and `sphinx-apidoc` entry points.
#
# The following technique works as long as sphinx is installed for python3,
# regardless of the entry point which might be in /usr/bin or PATH, but
# will stop working in sphinx >= 2.0. Hopefully by then, the mentioned
# bug will be fixed and we can use a standard python3 specific script to
# invoke sphnix.

# Canned recipe for generating plugin api skeletons
#   $1 = the plugin directory
#   $2 = the output docs directory
#
# Explanation:
#
#   Sphinx does not have any option for skipping documentation,
#   we dont want to document plugin code because nobody uses that
#   but we do want to use module-level docstrings in plugins in
#   order to explain how plugins work.
#
#   For this purpose, we replace sphinx-apidoc with a simple
#   makefile rule which generates a template slightly differently
#   from how sphinx does it, allowing us to get what we want
#   from plugin documentation.
