Nikhila Ravi 474c8b456a remove bin_size from the settings in the tutorials
Summary: Remove `bin_size` and `max_faces_per_pixel` from being specified. This means the coarse-to-fine rasterization will be used by default and will help avoid confusion with the naive version.

Setup

Install dependencies

pip install -U recommonmark mock sphinx sphinx_rtd_theme sphinx_markdown_tables

We want to include the root readme as an overview. Before generating the docs create a symlink to the root readme.

cd docs        
ln -s ../README.md  overview.md

In conf.py for deployment this is done using subprocess.call.

Add a new file

Add a new .md or .rst file and add the name to the doc tree in index.rst e.g

.. toctree::
   :maxdepth: 1
   :caption: Intro Documentation

   overview

To autogenerate docs from docstrings in the source code, add the import path for the function e.g.

Chamfer Loss
--------------------

.. autoclass:: loss.chamfer.chamfer_distance
    :members:
    :undoc-members:

    .. automethod:: __init__

Build

From pytorch3d/docs run:

> make html

The website is generated in _build/html.

Common Issues

Sphinx can be fussy, and sometimes about things you werent expecting. For example, you might encounter something like:

WARNING: toctree contains reference to nonexisting document u'overview' ... checking consistency... /docs/overview.rst:: WARNING: document isn't included in any toctree

You might have indented overview in the .. toctree:: in index.rst with four spaces, when Sphinx is expecting three.
