This + should be used when creating a :class:`WebSupport` object that will be + used to build data. + + datadir + The directory that the web support data is in. This should be used when + creating a :class:`WebSupport` object that will be used to retrieve data. + + search + This may contain either a string (e.g. 'xapian') referencing a built-in + search adapter to use, or an instance of a subclass of + :class:`~.search.BaseSearch`. + + storage + This may contain either a string representing a database uri, or an + instance of a subclass of :class:`~.storage.StorageBackend`. If this is + not provided, a new sqlite database will be created. + + moderation_callback + A callable to be called when a new comment is added that is not + displayed. It must accept one argument: a dictionary representing the + comment that was added. + + staticdir + If static files are served from a location besides ``'/static'``, this + should be a string with the name of that location + (e.g. ``'/static_files'``). + + docroot + If the documentation is not served from the base path of a URL, this + should be a string specifying that path (e.g. ``'docs'``). + + +Methods +~~~~~~~ + +.. automethod:: sphinx.websupport.WebSupport.build + +.. automethod:: sphinx.websupport.WebSupport.get_document + +.. automethod:: sphinx.websupport.WebSupport.get_data + +.. automethod:: sphinx.websupport.WebSupport.add_comment + +.. automethod:: sphinx.websupport.WebSupport.process_vote + +.. automethod:: sphinx.websupport.WebSupport.get_search_results |
