The sectiondoc extension parses the function and class docstrings as
they are retrieved by the autodoc extension and renders the section
blocks into sphinx friendly rst. The extension shares similarities
with alternatives (such as numpydoc) but aims at reflecting the
original form of the docstring and support project specific
customizations.

Key features of **sectiondoc** are:

- Do not change the order of sections.
- Allow sphinx directives between (and inside) section blocks.
- Custom rendering styles

.. note::

Sectiondoc should work with sphinx >= 0.4 that provides
the ``autodoc-process-docstring`` hook.
