npdocstring

Generate missing docstrings (numpydoc style) in your Python source code.

Requirements:

• Python 3.10+

This program will also parse the Python 3.X.X type hints and add them to the generated docstring.

For example, when the following file is piped to npdocstring

def test_function(a: int, b: List[int]) -> int:

  b.append(a)
  return sum(b)

npdocstring outputs this

def test_function(a: int, b: List[int]) -> int:
  '''

  Parameters
  ----------
  a : int
    FIXME

  b : list of int
    FIXME

  Returns
  -------
  int
    FIXME

  '''

  b.append(a)
  return sum(b)
