LabSoundPy Documentation

This directory contains documentation for the LabSound Python bindings.

Documentation Structure

  • API Reference: Detailed documentation for all classes, methods, and properties
  • Tutorials: Step-by-step guides for common tasks
  • Examples: Annotated example scripts demonstrating various features
  • Migration Guide: Guide for Web Audio API developers moving to Python

Building the Documentation

The documentation is built using Sphinx. To build the documentation:

# Install Sphinx and required extensions
pip install sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme

# Build the HTML documentation
cd docs
make html

The built documentation will be available in the _build/html directory.

Documentation Guidelines

When contributing to the documentation, follow these guidelines:

  1. Use clear, concise language
  2. Include code examples for all features
  3. Document all parameters, return values, and exceptions
  4. Provide links to related documentation
  5. Include diagrams where appropriate

API Documentation

The API documentation is generated from docstrings in the Python code. When writing docstrings, follow these guidelines:

  1. Use Google-style docstrings
  2. Document all parameters, return values, and exceptions
  3. Include examples where appropriate
  4. Document any limitations or edge cases

Example:

def my_function(param1, param2=None):
    """
    Brief description of the function.
    
    Longer description explaining the function's behavior.
    
    Args:
        param1: Description of param1
        param2: Description of param2. Defaults to None.
        
    Returns:
        Description of the return value
        
    Raises:
        ValueError: If param1 is invalid
        
    Example:
        >>> my_function(42)
        'Result: 42'
    """
    # Function implementation
