A sphinx extension for behave to auto document.

To add auto behave to your sphinx modify conf.py by adding auto behave to extensions like so:

extensions = ['..', '..', 'auto_behave']

To enable auto behave's rst generation modify conf.py by adding the following to the bottom:

from auto_behave.gen_step_rst import generate_step_rst_files
generate_step_rst_files('abs/path/to/project', 'rel/path/features/dir', 'rel/path/doc/features')

Auto behave's rst generation supports both the standard behave & more custom folder structure layouts.

features
├── environment.py
├── order.feature
│
└── steps
    ├── add.py
    └── remove.py

features
├── environment.py
├── order
|   ├── create_order.feature
│   └── steps
|       ├── add.py
|       └── remove.py
|
└── steps
    ├── __init__.py
    ├── navigation.py
    └── common.py

By default behave doesn't allow you to have step files in different directories outside a single step folder. Being locked to single folder becomes a problem with a large scale project. To get around behave's limitation within behave's step directory i.e. features/steps create __init__.py and import all other steps files that are not in this directory i.e.

# features/steps/__init__.py

import features.order.steps.add
import features.order.steps.remove

You can of course create your own rst for more manual approach by using autobehave directive, like so:

Order Steps
===========

..  autobehave::

    features.order.steps.add
    features.order.steps.remove
