=====================================

Incompatible changes

Deprecated

  • #​11412: Emit warnings on using a deprecated Python-specific index entry type (namely, module, keyword, operator, object, exception, statement, and builtin) in the :rst:dir:index directive, and set the removal version to Sphinx 9. Patch by Adam Turner.

Features added

  • #​11415: Add a checksum to JavaScript and CSS asset URIs included within generated HTML, using the CRC32 algorithm.
  • :meth:~sphinx.application.Sphinx.require_sphinx now allows the version requirement to be specified as (major, minor).
  • #​11011: Allow configuring a line-length limit for object signatures, via :confval:maximum_signature_line_length and the domain-specific variants. If the length of the signature (in characters) is greater than the configured limit, each parameter in the signature will be split to its own logical line. This behaviour may also be controlled by options on object description directives, for example :rst:dir:py:function:single-line-parameter-list. Patch by Thomas Louf, Adam Turner, and Jean-François B.
  • #​10983: Support for multiline copyright statements in the footer block. Patch by Stefanie Molin

  • #​11438: Add support for the :rst:dir:py:class and :rst:dir:py:function directives for PEP 695 (generic classes and functions declarations) and PEP 696 (default type parameters). Multi-line support (#​11011) is enabled for type parameters list and can be locally controlled on object description directives, e.g., :rst:dir:py:function:single-line-type-parameter-list. Patch by Bénédikt Tran.
  • #​11484: linkcheck: Allow HTML anchors to be ignored on a per-URL basis via :confval:linkcheck_anchors_ignore_for_url while still checking the validity of the page itself. Patch by Bénédikt Tran
  • #​1246: Add translation progress statistics and inspection support, via a new substitution (|translation progress|) and a new configuration variable (:confval:translation_progress_classes).

Bugs fixed

  • Restored the footnote-reference class that has been removed in the latest (unreleased) version of Docutils.

  • #​11437: Top-level headings starting with a reStructuredText role now render properly when :confval:rst_prolog is set. Previously, a file starting with the below would have improperly rendered due to where the prologue text was inserted into the document.

    .. code:: rst

    :mod:lobster -- The lobster module

    ...

    Patch by Bénédikt Tran.

  • #​10470: Drop Python 3.7, Docutils 0.14, Docutils 0.15, Docutils 0.16, and Docutils 0.17 support. Patch by Adam Turner

Incompatible changes

  • #​7405: Removed the jQuery and underscore.js JavaScript frameworks.

    These frameworks are no longer be automatically injected into themes from Sphinx 6.0. If you develop a theme or extension that uses the jQuery, $, or $u global objects, you need to update your JavaScript to modern standards, or use the mitigation below.

    The first option is to use the sphinxcontrib.jquery_ extension, which has been developed by the Sphinx team and contributors. To use this, add sphinxcontrib.jquery to the extensions list in conf.py, or call app.setup_extension("sphinxcontrib.jquery") if you develop a Sphinx theme or extension.

    The second option is to manually ensure that the frameworks are present. To re-add jQuery and underscore.js, you will need to copy jquery.js and underscore.js from the Sphinx repository_ to your static directory, and add the following to your layout.html:

    .. code-block:: html+jinja

    {%- block scripts %} {{ super() }} {%- endblock %}

    .. _sphinxcontrib.jquery: https://github.com/sphinx-contrib/jquery/
