Sphinx substitutions next to angle brackets

问题

I'm trying to use substitutions in a parsed literal block in my Sphinx documentation like this:

<dependency>
  ...
  <version>|release|</version>
</dependency>

Which gets rendered like this:

<dependency>
  ...
  <version>|release|</version>
</dependency>

Where what I want is this:

<dependency>
  ...
  <version>1.7.3</version>
</dependency>

If I add spaces around the substitution in the source, I get this:

<dependency>
  ...
  <version> 1.7.3 </version>
</dependency>

So I know release is defined as I expect. How can I get rid of the spaces?

回答1:

This works:

.. parsed-literal::

   <version>\ |release|\ </version>

.. |release| replace:: 1.7.3
