Readthedocs

Introduction

Readthedocs is an online service to host technical documentation, especially in Sphinx format. If your documentation code lives on GitHub a webhook can configured to trigger Readthedocs to fetch and build Sphinx documentation.

Workflow

Git Commit -> Webhook -> Sphinx Build -> Publish

Use cases

Readthedocs provides different output formats like HTML, ePub, and PDF in different languages and different versions (branches).

You can configure your own sub-domain like http://docs-i18n.readthedocs.io/ or use your own name space and configure aliases or forwards.

Example
