Currently, the value of all extra options is expected to be a string; other types are not supported in various aspects of sphinx-needs (such as
needextend
, dynamic functions and filtering), and in-fact are already silently converted to strings during processing,see:
sphinx-needs/sphinx_needs/api/need.py
Line 791 in 92b47b1
This PR adds the
needs.mistyped_external_values
andneeds.mistyped_import_values
warnings for non-string values, forneeds_external_needs
andneedimport
sources respectively. The warning is only emitted once per source, to avoid creating too many warnings.Note, in the future it is hoped that more types will be supported via configuration in
needs_extra_options
(see #1338)
