# py2fern
Generate [Fern](https://buildwithfern.com) API documentation from Python packages using static analysis.
Simplified fork of [`sphinx-autodoc2`](https://github.com/sphinx-extensions2/sphinx-autodoc2) focused purely on **Python → Fern markdown** output.
## Installation
```bash
pipx install py2fern
```
## Usage
Generate Fern markdown documentation:
```bash
py2fern write /path/to/your/package
```
Specify output directory:
```bash
py2fern write /path/to/your/package --output ./docs/api
```
This creates:
- **MDX files** with Fern-compatible frontmatter and slugs
- **`navigation.yml`** for Fern docs structure
## Acknowledgments
This project is a fork of the excellent [`sphinx-autodoc2`](https://github.com/sphinx-extensions2/sphinx-autodoc2) by Chris Sewell. All credit for the core functionality goes to the original project.
## Development
All configuration is mainly in `pyproject.toml`.
Use [tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) to run the tests.
```bash
pipx install tox
tox -av
```
Use [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) to run the linters and formatters.
```bash
pipx install pre-commit
pre-commit run --all-files
# pre-commit install
```
[flit](https://flit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) is used to build the package.
```bash
pipx install flit
flit build
```
