Take a look into our Examples for more pictures and ideas how to use Sphinx-Needs.

For filtering and analyzing needs, Sphinx-Needs provides different, powerful possibilities:

needtable	needflow	needpie

poetry add sphinx-needs

pip install sphinx-needs

If you wish to also use the plotting features of sphinx-needs (see needbar and needpie), you need to also install matplotlib, which is available via the plotting extra:

pip install sphinx-needs[plotting]

git clone https://github.com/useblocks/sphinx-needs
cd sphinx-needs
pip install .
# or
poetry install

For final activation, please add sphinx_needs to the project's extension list of your conf.py file.
