"""Machinery for documenting traitlets config options with Sphinx.

This includes:

- A Sphinx extension defining directives and roles for config options.
- A function to generate an rst file given an Application instance.

To make this documentation, first set this module as an extension in Sphinx's
conf.py::

    extensions = [
        # ...
        'traitlets.config.sphinxdoc',
    ]

Autogenerate the config documentation by running code like this before
Sphinx builds::

    from traitlets.config.sphinxdoc import write_doc
    from myapp import MyApplication

    writedoc('config/options.rst',    # File to write
             'MyApp config options',  # Title
             MyApplication()
            )

The generated rST syntax looks like this::

    .. configtrait:: Application.log_datefmt

        Description goes here.

    Cross reference like this: :configtrait:`Application.log_datefmt`.
