AI interpretation — verify before relying

AI-generated interpretation of the package facts above; every digit, version, license, or vulnerability id it cites is grounded in the facts already shown on this page

A Sphinx extension that generates QtHelp documentation output, enabling Sphinx-based projects to produce help files compatible with Qt's help system.

Low install friction with no runtime dependencies. Maintenance is dormant—745 days since last release—though the repository remains active with a recent commit on 2024-10-25, suggesting occasional upkeep rather than active development.

Licensed under a permissive BSD license, allowing free use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions.

Usage

pip install sphinxcontrib-qthelp==2.0.0

In conf.py, add to extensions:
extensions = ['sphinxcontrib.qthelp']

Requires Python >=3.9; intended as a Sphinx extension, so a Sphinx project setup is assumed.

Verdict: A stable, low-friction Sphinx extension for QtHelp output with no known vulnerabilities and permissive licensing. Dormant maintenance (745 days since release) is typical for mature, specialized documentation tools; the recent repository commit suggests it is not abandoned. Suitable for projects needing Qt help integration with Sphinx.

Needs verification

Whether the extension is actively maintained by the Sphinx project or has transitioned to community maintenance
Compatibility with the latest Qt help system versions and any breaking changes in recent Sphinx releases
