Compare Source

Changelog: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes/8.1.html

Bugs fixed

  • #​13013: Restore support for cut_lines() with no object type. Patch by Adam Turner.

v8.1.2: Sphinx 8.1.2

Compare Source

Changelog: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes/8.1.html

Bugs fixed

  • #​13012: Expose sphinx.errors.ExtensionError in sphinx.util for backwards compatibility. This will be removed in Sphinx 9, as exposing the exception in sphinx.util was never intentional. ExtensionError has been part of sphinx.errors since Sphinx 0.9. Patch by Adam Turner.

v8.1.1: Sphinx 8.1.1

Compare Source

Changelog: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes/8.1.html

Bugs fixed

  • #​13006: Use the preferred https://www.cve.org/ URL for the :cve: role. Patch by Hugo van Kemenade.
  • #​13007: LaTeX: Improve resiliency when the required fontawesome or fontawesome5 packages are not installed. Patch by Jean-François B.

v8.1.0: Sphinx 8.1.0

Compare Source

Changelog: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes/8.1.html

Dependencies

  • #​12756: Add lower-bounds to the sphinxcontrib-* dependencies. Patch by Adam Turner.
  • #​12833: Update the LaTeX parskip package from 2001 to 2018. Patch by Jean-François B.

Incompatible changes

  • #​12763: Remove unused internal class sphinx.util.Tee. Patch by Adam Turner.
  • #​12822: LaTeX: for Unicode engines, the fvset default is changed to '\\fvset{fontsize=auto}' from '\\fvset{fontsize=\\small}'. Code-blocks are unchanged as FreeMono is now loaded with Scale=0.9. An adjustment to existing projects is needed only if they used a custom fontpkg configuration and did not set fvset. Patch by Jean-François B.
  • #​12875: Disable smartquotes for languages: zh_CN and zh_TW by default. Patch by A. Rafey Khan.

Deprecated

  • #​12762: Deprecate sphinx.util.import_object. Use importlib.import_module() instead. Patch by Adam Turner.

Features added

  • #​11328: Mention evaluation of templated content during production of static output files. Patch by James Addison.

  • #​12474: Support type-dependent search result highlighting via CSS. Patch by Tim Hoffmann.
  • #​12652: LaTeX: Add math_numsep support to latex builder. Patch by Thomas Fanning and Jean-François B.
  • #​12743: No longer exit on the first warning when --fail-on-warning is used. Instead, exit with a non-zero status if any warnings were generated during the build. Patch by Adam Turner.
  • #​12743: Add sphinx-build --exception-on-warning, to raise an exception when warnings are emitted during the build. Patch by Adam Turner and Jeremy Maitin-Shepard.
  • #​12907: Add html_last_updated_use_utc to allow using universal time (GMT/UTC) instead of local time for the date-time supplied to html_last_updated_fmt. Patch by Adam Turner.
  • #​12910: Copyright entries now support the '%Y' placeholder to substitute the current year. This is helpful for reducing the reliance on Python modules such as time or datetime in conf.py. Patch by Adam Turner.
  • #​11781: Add roles for referencing CVEs (:cve:) and CWEs (:cwe:). Patch by Hugo van Kemenade.
  • #​11809: Improve the formatting for RFC section anchors. Patch by Jakub Stasiak and Adam Turner.
  • #​12852: Support a .Builder.supported_linkcode attribute for builders to enable use of sphinx.ext.linkcode-generated references. Patch by James Knight.
  • #​12949: Print configuration options that differ from the pickled environment. This can be helpful in diagnosing the cause of a full rebuild. Patch by Adam Turner.

Bugs fixed

  • #​12514: intersphinx: fix the meaning of a negative value for intersphinx_cache_limit. Patch by Shengyu Zhang.
  • #​12722: LaTeX: avoid TeX reporting Overfull \hbox from too long strings in a codeline when the problem has actually been solved thanks to latexsphinxsetupforcewraps. Patch by Jean-François B.
  • #​12730: The UnreferencedFootnotesDetector transform has been improved to more consistently detect unreferenced footnotes. Note, the priority of the transform has been changed from 200 to 622, so that it now runs after the docutils Footnotes resolution transform. Patch by Chris Sewell.
  • #​12778: LaTeX: let 'sphinxsetup' div.topic_box-shadow key if used with only one dimension set both x-offset and y-offset as per documentation. Patch by Jean-François B.
  • #​12587: Do not warn when potential ambiguity detected during Intersphinx resolution occurs due to duplicate targets that differ case-insensitively. Patch by James Addison.
  • #​12639: Fix singular and plural search results text. Patch by Hugo van Kemenade.
  • #​12645: Correctly support custom gettext output templates. Patch by Jeremy Bowman.
  • #​12717: LaTeX: let -q (quiet) option for sphinx-build -M latexpdf or make latexpdf (O=-q) get passed to latexmk. Let -Q (silent) apply as well to the PDF build phase. Patch by Jean-François B.
  • #​12744: LaTeX: Classes injected by a custom interpreted text role now give rise to nested \DUrole's, rather than a single one with comma separated classes. Patch by Jean-François B.
  • #​12831: LaTeX: avoid large voids sometimes occurring at page bottoms. Patch by Jean-François B.
  • #​11970, #​12551: singlehtml builder: make target URIs to be same-document references in the sense of RFC 3986, §4.4, e.g., index.html#foo becomes #foo. (note: continuation of a partial fix added in Sphinx 7.3.0) Patch by James Addison (with reference to prior work by Eric Norige).
  • #​12735: Fix PEP 695 generic classes LaTeX output formatting. Patch by Jean-François B. and Bénédikt Tran.
  • #​12782: intersphinx: fix double forward slashes when generating the inventory file URL (user-defined base URL of an intersphinx project are left untouched even if they end with double forward slashes). Patch by Bénédikt Tran.
  • #​12796: Enable parallel reading if requested, even if there are fewer than 6 documents. Patch by Matthias Geier.
  • #​12844: Restore support for :noindex: for the js:module and py:module directives. Patch by Stephen Finucane.
  • #​12916: Restore support for custom templates named with the legacy _t suffix during apidoc RST rendering (regression in 7.4.0). Patch by James Addison.
  • #​12451: Only substitute copyright notice years with values from SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH for entries that match the current system clock year, and disallow substitution of future years. Patch by James Addison and Adam Turner.
  • #​12905: intersphinx: fix flipped use of intersphinx_cache_limit, which always kept the cache for positive values, and always refreshed it for negative ones. Patch by Nico Madysa.
  • #​12888: Add a warning when document is included in multiple toctrees and ensure deterministic resolution of global toctree in parallel builds by choosing the lexicographically greatest parent document. Patch by A. Rafey Khan
  • #​12995: Significantly improve performance when building the search index for Chinese languages. Patch by Adam Turner.
  • #​12767: .Builder.write is typed as final, meaning that the write-started event may be relied upon by extensions. A new .Builder.write_documents method has been added to control how documents are written. This is intended for builders that do not output a file for each document. Patch by Adam Turner.

Testing

  • #​12141: Migrate from the deprecated karma JavaScript test framework to the actively-maintained jasmine framework. Test coverage is unaffected. Patch by James Addison.
