I want to use Sphinx so it can automatically generate a pydoc for my python code but I\'m getting an error. What an I doing wrong?

conf.py sphinx config

Answer 1

DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is expected to be a Python module identifier, not a filesystem path. Looking at the django/conf/__init__py file, it seems that a relative path to your settings module won't work there. You will need to move it below a directory listed in your sys.path, or you should add a parent directory to your sys.path and reference your settings module from there.
