Creating custom directives

[Robin Liu]

Is there an existing way to create a duplicate of :param: that's formatted /displays the same way, but renamed to something else (say "states")? So something like:

class temp():

""" temp class

     :param a: ....

     :type a:  ....

     :states state1: ....

     :type state1:  ....

"""

Thanks!

There might be a simpler way, but by subclassing PyClassLike, probably changing the values of doc_field_types and registering this with app.add_directive_to_domain("py", "class", YourClass, override=True) in a setup(app) fonction in your conf.py, you might get what you want.
