Silence sphinx warnings #4286

keewis · 2020-07-29T20:48:17Z

This prepares our docstrings for the improvements to napoleon in the upcoming sphinx release (~~I'm not aware of a fixed date, though~~ it's going to be released around Aug 08, so in about a week from now). napoleon now has a stricter syntax for parameter type specs with napoleon_use_param = True, which allows it to link to all referenced types.

We can't do much about the inherited docstrings, though, so we'd probably have to fix that upstream.

works towards closing Hundreds of Sphinx errors #3370
Passes isort . && black . && mypy . && flake8
User visible changes (including notable bug fixes) are documented in whats-new.rst
New functions/methods are listed in api.rst

@spencerkclark, while working on this PR I got a warning about CFTimeOffset not being linkable in CFTimeIndex.floor / ceil / round. Looking through the code, I can only find BaseCFTimeOffset, there's no CFTimeOffset class (maybe we should rename that base class?).

Anyway, I don't think any of those is part of the public api? If the methods on CFTimeIndex are public, I think we either shouldn't reference these classes or make them public (or add a glossary term to define what CFTimeOffset means).

Thanks for catching this; I agree they are not currently public API, so let's remove the references to them in docstrings of public functions. And it's true, I think CFTimeOffset would be a better name for the base class, but we can wait until later to act on that.

Thanks a lot @keewis !

because that will separate combined parameter docs by duplicating the description

@keewis: this is great!

these definitely need a review, I'm not quite sure these are easy to understand

keewis · 2020-08-12T23:00:10Z

most of the remaining broken links are due to other sections (mostly the See Also section). To fix that, napoleon has to first add support for preprocessing those sections.

This is a great cleanup, thank you!

Should "array like" also be defined somewhere in order for a link to work? Or does this just add some sort of formatting?

My definition of a "scalar" might be anything that isn't an array and that when converted into a NumPy array would have 0 dimensions.

NumPy defines "array like" as anything that can be converted into an array. So that definition includes scalar values.

right now we're linking to numpy's definition of the term (thanks to intersphinx), so defining it on our own might not be necessary.

I updated the definition, is it better now?
