"""Sphinx autodoc extension: expose runtime-modified docstrings for _DeprecatedProxy. .. note:: **Beta feature** — the public API of this module (documenter class, priority value) may change in a minor release while it stabilises. ``@deprecated_class(update_docstring=True)`` writes the deprecation notice into the proxy's ``__doc__`` at decoration time. Sphinx's autodoc sees the proxy as a non-class instance and renders it as ``"alias of "`` without showing the docstring. This extension bridges the gap by registering a custom :class:`ClassDocumenter` that: 1. Recognises :class:`~deprecate.proxy._DeprecatedProxy` objects via :meth:`can_document_member`. 2. Swaps the proxy for the underlying (wrapped) class so that Sphinx can introspect members and build the correct signature. 3. Returns the proxy's ``__doc__`` (which already contains the injected ``.. deprecated::`` block) from :meth:`get_doc`, so the notice appears in the rendered output. Usage in ``conf.py``:: extensions = [ 'sphinx.ext.autodoc', ... 'deprecate.docstring.sphinx_ext', ] Requirements: ``sphinx`` with ``sphinx.ext.autodoc`` is required. Importing this module without Sphinx installed is safe — the custom documenter is simply not registered.
