This patch would now > parse that segment as: > > "lorem ipsum\n dolor sit amet\n consectetur adipiscing elit" I'm afraid it's less than clear *why* we want to parse the entire block directly as rST. I have just enough insight into what you've built on top of this series to hazard a guess. Bear with me while I try to explain it. We first parse the doc comment with parser.py into an internal representation. The structural parts become objects, and the remainder becomes text attributes of these objects. Currently, parser.py carefully adjusts indentation for these text attributes. Why? I'll get to that. For your example, parser.py creates an ArgSection object, and sets its @text member to "lorem ipsum\ndolor sit amet\n consectetur adipiscing elit" Printing this string gives us lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit qapidoc.py then transforms parser.py's IR into Sphinx IR. The objects become (more complicated) Sphinx objects, and their text attributes get re-parsed as rST text into still more Sphinx objects. This re-parse rejects your example with "Unexpected indentation." Let me use a slightly different one: # @name: lorem ipsum # dolor sit amet # consectetur adipiscing elit Results in this @text member lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit which is re-parsed as paragraph, i.e. exactly what we want. > This understandably breaks qapidoc.py; Without indentation adjustment, we'd get lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit which would be re-parsed as a definition list, I guess.

You move it so you can branch off your new rendering pipeline before the indentation adjustment, because ... > Once the new generator is merged, this function > will not be needed any longer and can be dropped. ... yours doesn't want it. I believe it doesn't want it, because it generates rST (with a QAPI extension) instead of Sphinx objects. For your example, something like :arg name: lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit For mine: :arg name: lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit Fair? The transition from the doc comment to (extended) rST is straightforward for these examples. I hope it'll be as straightforward (and thus predictable) in other cases, too. > (I verified this patch changes absolutely nothing by comparing the > md5sums of the QMP ref html pages both before and after the change, so > it's certified inert.

This patch merely moves an indentation adjustment from parser.py to qapidoc.py. Checks out: you remove indentation adjustment in parser.py, add it in qapidoc.py, and that's it. 1. The new indentation adjuster in qapidoc.py behaves just like the old one in parser.py did. parser.py's .get_doc_indented() is used to parse what follows certain sections' first line. It's users store the text on this first line, if any, with leading whitespace stripped, then call .get_doc_indented() to eat the section's remaining lines. All non-blank lines eaten must be indented at least as much as the first non-blank line. .get_doc_indented() appends the lines eaten to the stored text with the first non-blank line's indentation stripped from all the non-blank lines. Your patch drops this stripping of indentation from non-first lines. This is what must now be done in qapidoc.py. If the section's first line has no text, the first non-blank line's indentation must be stripped from all non-blank lines. If the section's first line has text, the next non-blank line's indentation must be stripped from all lines but the first. How can qapidoc.py detect whether the section's first line has text? Fortunately, such a line will be unindented, i.e. start with a non-blank character, and all remaining lines will be blank or indented. qapidoc.py's dedent() seems to remove indentation common to all non-blank lines. Except when there are multiple lines, and the first one is not indented, it removes common indentation from the remaining lines. Common indentation works, because all lines are indented at least as much as the one whose indentation we want to remove. The conditional doesn't quite match the "if the section's first line" above. This simpler dedent() does, and also works in my testing: def dedent(text: str) -> str: lines = text.splitlines(True) if re.match(r"\s+", lines[0]): # First line is indented; description started on # the line after the name. dedent the whole block. return textwrap.dedent(text) # Descr started on same line. Dedent line 2+. return lines[0] + textwrap.dedent("".join(lines[1:])) What do you think? 2. The new one is applied exactly when the old one was. The old one is applied to the sections starting with @FOO: and the tagged sections (Returns:, Errors:, ...). The new one is applied in ._nodes_for_members(), ._nodes_for_enum_values(), _nodes_for_features(), and ._nodes_for_sections(). It is not applied to the text of untagged sections, including the body section.

Unlike paragraphs, we want indents to "keep the block". New parsing, new generator: :arg type name: lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur apidiscing elit indent is preserved, maintaining the block-level element. I don't have to re-add indents and any nested block elements will be preserved correctly. i.e. you can use code examples, nested lists, etc. in argument definitions. The goal here was "Do not treat this as a paragraph, treat it directly as rST and do not modify it needlessly." It's a lot simpler than trying to manage the indent and injecting spaces manually - and adding a temporary dedent to scheduled-for-demolition code seemed the nicer place to add the hack. > The transition from the doc comment to (extended) rST is straightforward > for these examples. > > I hope it'll be as straightforward (and thus predictable) in other > cases, too. > > > (I verified this patch changes absolutely nothing by comparing the > > md5sums of the QMP ref html pages both before and after the change, so > > it's certified inert.

Understand. A bit more rationale in the commit message would be nice.

Prior to this patch, a section like this: @name: lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit would be parsed as: "lorem ipsum\ndolor sit amet\n consectetur adipiscing elit" We want to preserve the indentation for even the first body line so that the entire block can be parsed directly as rST. This patch would now parse that segment as: "lorem ipsum\n dolor sit amet\n consectetur adipiscing elit" This understandably breaks qapidoc.py; so a new function is added there to re-dedent the text. Once the new generator is merged, this function will not be needed any longer and can be dropped. (I verified this patch changes absolutely nothing by comparing the md5sums of the QMP ref html pages both before and after the change, so it's certified inert. QAPI test output has been updated to reflect the new strategy of preserving indents for rST.)
