def can_document_member(cls, member, membername, isattr, parent):
Called to see if a member can be documented by this Documenter.
Parameters
member:AnyUndocumented
membername:strUndocumented
isattr:boolUndocumented
parent:AnyUndocumented
Returns
boolUndocumented
def __init__(self, *args):

Undocumented

Parameters
*args:AnyUndocumented
def _get_signature(self):

Undocumented

Returns
Tuple[Optional[Any], Optional[str], Optional[Signature]]Undocumented
def add_content(self, more_content, no_docstring=False):
Add content from docstrings, attribute documentation and user.
Parameters
more​_content:Optional[StringList]Undocumented
no​_docstring:boolUndocumented
def add_directive_header(self, sig):
Add the directive header and options to the generated content.
Parameters
sig:strUndocumented
def document_members(self, all_members=False):

Generate reST for member documentation.

If all_members is True, document all members, else those given by self.options.members.

Parameters
all​_members:boolUndocumented
def format_args(self, **kwargs):

Format the argument signature of self.object.

Should return None if the object does not have a signature.

Parameters
**kwargs:AnyUndocumented
Returns
strUndocumented
def format_signature(self, **kwargs):

Format the signature (arguments and return annotation) of the object.

Let the user process it via the autodoc-process-signature event.

Parameters
**kwargs:AnyUndocumented
Returns
strUndocumented
def generate(self, more_content=None, real_modname=None, check_module=False, all_members=False):

Generate reST for the object given by self.name, and possibly for its members.

If more_content is given, include that content. If real_modname is given, use that module name to find attribute docs. If check_module is True, only generate if the object is defined in the module name it is imported from. If all_members is True, document all members.

Parameters
more​_content:Optional[StringList]Undocumented
real​_modname:strUndocumented
check​_module:boolUndocumented
all​_members:boolUndocumented
def get_canonical_fullname(self):

Undocumented

Returns
Optional[str]Undocumented
def get_doc(self, ignore=None):

Decode and return lines of the docstring(s) for the object.

When it returns None, autodoc-process-docstring will not be called for this object.

Parameters
ignore:intUndocumented
Returns
Optional[List[List[str]]]Undocumented
def get_object_members(self, want_all):

Return (members_check_module, members) where members is a list of (membername, member) pairs of the members of self.object.

If want_all is True, return all members. Else, only return those members given by self.options.members (which may also be None).

Parameters
want​_all:boolUndocumented
Returns
Tuple[bool, ObjectMembers]Undocumented
def get_overloaded_signatures(self):

Undocumented

Returns
List[Signature]Undocumented
def get_variable_comment(self):

Undocumented

Returns
Optional[List[str]]Undocumented
def import_object(self, raiseerror=False):

Import the object given by self.modname and self.objpath and set it as self.object.

Returns True if successful, False if an error occurred.

Parameters
raiseerror:boolUndocumented
Returns
boolUndocumented
