Python Docstring Generator

What docstring formats does the Python Docstring Generator support?

The tool supports three major docstring formats: Google Style (clean and readable), NumPy Style (ideal for scientific computing), and Sphinx Style (perfect for documentation tools). Each format follows industry standards and best practices.

How do I use the Python Docstring Generator effectively?

Simply paste your Python function or class code, click "Analyze Code" to detect parameters and structure, customize the docstring format and settings, then copy the generated docstring or complete documented code. The tool automatically detects parameters, types, and return values.

Is the Docstring Generator compatible with all Python versions?

Yes, the tool generates docstrings compatible with Python 2.7+ and all Python 3.x versions. It supports modern Python features like type hints, async functions, and various parameter formats while maintaining backward compatibility.

Are there any limitations for the docstring generator?

The tool works entirely client-side for privacy and speed. It performs intelligent code parsing but may not handle extremely complex nested functions or unusual syntax. For optimal results, use standard Python function definitions with clear parameter structures.

Can I customize the generated docstring content and format?

Absolutely! You can choose between Google, NumPy, and Sphinx formats, toggle type hints inclusion, enable/disable examples and raises sections, edit parameter descriptions, and customize the complete documentation structure. The tool provides full control over the output.
