So if you look at the preview at https://pandas.pydata.org/preview/pandas-dev/pandas/63812/docs/reference/aliases.html#module-pandas.api.typing.aliases and the published version at https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/dev/reference/aliases.html you'll see that the changes have lost the aspect of this being in a table. I don't know if there is a way to preserve that. Can you find out? |
|
Maybe possible with list tables? https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/directives.html#list-table |

oh bro why your sheeps eyes are looking red now |

Lol, I’ve just spent wayy too much time debugging Sphinx docs. I’m usually not sad, I just just know that I'm often the only guy around who knows how everything works together. That's why I sometimes just say “do this thing”: because I know it's the only thing that makes sense. |

@flying-sheep There is 2:00 am here i forget to see time 😅 |
Updated the typing aliases documentation to include a list table format for better readability and added descriptions for each alias.
|
Why do you keep removing Is that some kind of joke or are you trying to do something specific? Because if you're trying to do something then ask and I can help. I assure you that deleting |

@flying-sheep bro I applied you table logic and forget to change the module |
Removed multiple argument type definitions for various methods and added a duplicate entry for XMLParsers.

@flying-sheep after reading your table docs content i knew that sphinx is so strict with reStructuredText so i reStructured some texts to see if that works |

Why can't we continue to use the markdown table with ===== as we do through most of the pandas docs?

I didn't check but as said multiple times, rST has a lot of implicit rules about where it accepts inline syntax, block syntax, both, or neither.
I assume table syntax might only support inline syntax and not block syntax, and directives are block syntax.
But as said, that's only an assumption based on the PR author not using table syntax.

When this is rendered it looks like:
type pandas.api.typing.aliases.AggFuncType
The module pandas.api.typing.aliases is quite redundant for every entry. Is there a way that could be removed?

ok thanks for clarification i think two backtick method will work by changing the module back to current module

No, double backticks mean “this is code”. There point of this PR is to create reference targets.
In reference roles, using ~ will leave out the redundant part, but I'm not sure if it's possible to shorten here.

I have no clue why you keep breaking this. It must be this:
.. module:: pandas.api.typing.aliases
and the table needs to look like this
==================================== ================================================================
Alias Meaning
==================================== ================================================================
.. type:: AggFuncType Type of functions that can be passed to :meth:`agg` methods
.. type:: AlignJoin Argument type for ``join`` in :meth:`DataFrame.join`
just do both of these things and the PR actually does what it says.
