Pdoc
open-in-new
<p>Pdoc is a software package for generating <a href="/facts/API/GMlN4vUr">API</a> documentation for <a href="/facts/Python_/YbuGqofa">Python</a> <a href="/facts/Programming_language/cWTYbgWa">programming language</a>. Built as a successor to <a href="/facts/Epydoc/pYalIdPc">Epydoc</a>, Pdoc uses <a href="/facts/Reflection_(computer_programming)/Nj8stFfp">introspection</a> to extract documentation from source code <a href="/facts/Docstring/LTnRjGpR">docstrings</a> and allows programmers to generate <a href="/facts/HTML/sSc3fT78">HTML</a> documentation for chosen Python modules. It is thus functionally similar to <a href="/facts/Pydoc/tWb7bEFM">Pydoc</a>, <a href="/facts/Perldoc/YmPSLckN">Perldoc</a> and <a href="/facts/Javadoc/pm72Xvlf">Javadoc</a>. It supports identifier cross-linking and Markdown for its doc string format. </p>
