该文章一方面从量子线路的打印着手,介绍了一个简单的python量子线路工程。同时基于这个简单的小工程,我们顺带的介绍了python的API文档自动化生成工具Sphinx的基本使用方法。
在前面几篇博客中,有介绍过使用开源量子计算编程框架ProjectQ进行量子线路的绘制,会给我们输出一个tex格式的线路图,在文章中可以直接使用。关于量子线路与量子逻辑门操作,在这篇博客中有比较初步的介绍。而本文章中所创建的工程,是直接在cmd窗口里面打印输出字符串形式的量子线路,同样的,在量子计算资源估计和量子线路工程中,可以产生一定的作用。
对于一个比较优雅的python开源项目来说,一份简介的文档是必不可少的。一般一个python项目的文档有两部分组成:一部分是用markdown撰写的使用说明文档,其宗旨在于概述的介绍整个项目的重点内容,以及可能包含少部分的使用示例。这部分的文档可以先用markdown写,然后通过一些开源工具,如mkdocs等转换成read_the_docs格式的文档。read_the_docs格式的文档大概如下图所示,也可以直接参考其官方文档。而文档的第二个部分则是具体到每个函数、每个类的接口文档。在开发阶段,我们先按照格式要求写好注释文档,然后通过开源工具Sphinx就可以自动化的生成API接口文档。
这里我们直接使用python的包管理工具pip来安装Sphinx以及一个read_the_docs
格式的python库。如果不需要使用read_the_docs
格式也可以不安装后者,只是后者在python的开源项目中还是最常用的一种文档格式,并且可以配合read_the_docs网站进行API文档的托管,因此推荐使用。

我们先看一下使用的方法以及效果,再回过头来分析代码实现的原理:
if __name__ == '__main__':
qc = QuantumCircuit(3)
qc.apply(0, 0)
qc.apply(1, (1,0))
qc.apply(1, (2,1))
qc.apply(1, (2,0))
qc.apply(2)
print (qc)
输出结果如下所示(注意使用等宽字体):
|0> |0> |0>
| | |
| | h
| | |
| x ----- c
| | |
x ----- c |
| | |
x ----- | ----- c
| | |
m m m
这里我们就可以了解到,这个项目的核心功能就是通过构造一个量子线路的对象,并且对这个对象逐一的施加量子门操作,就可以输出成对应的量子线路字符串。接下来我们再看看源码实现:
# qcprinter.py
"""

class QuantumCircuit:
"""The class of quantum circuit from input quantum logical gates.

>>> qc.apply(1, (1,0))
>>> qc.apply(1, (2,1))
>>> qc.apply(1, (2,0))
>>> qc.apply(2)

在这个简单的代码实现中,我们主要是为量子线路的类设置了一个魔法函数__str__
,将我们所需要的量子线路的字符串作为整个对象的字符串返回值(关于python的魔法函数的使用方法可以参考前面这篇博客介绍)。这个字符串的类的核心功能是通过字符串拼接来实现的,我们不过多的赘述。这里为了方便操作,我们将量子逻辑门操作使用整型数字来替代:0
代表
门,1
代表
门,2
代表全局的量子测量操作。同时,为了展示API文档的制作过程,这里我们在类与函数内都写了一部分的示例注释代码,在下一个章节介绍一下文档的效果。
首先使用sphinx-quickstart
来生成一些配置文件:
[dechin@dechin-manjaro circuit]$ sphinx-quickstart
欢迎使用 Sphinx 3.5.1 快速配置工具。
Please enter values for the following settings (just press Enter to
accept a default value, if one is given in brackets).
Selected root path: .
You have two options for placing the build directory for Sphinx output.
Either, you use a directory "_build" within the root path, or you separate
"source" and "build" directories within the root path.
> 独立的源文件和构建目录(y/n) [n]: y
The project name will occur in several places in the built documentation.
> 项目名称: qcprinter
> 作者名称: DechinPhy
> 项目发行版本 []: 1.0
If the documents are to be written in a language other than English,
you can select a language here by its language code. Sphinx will then
translate text that it generates into that language.
For a list of supported codes, see
https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/configuration.html#confval-language.
> 项目语种 [en]: en
创建文件 /home/dechin/projects/2021-quantum/circuit/source/conf.py。
创建文件 /home/dechin/projects/2021-quantum/circuit/source/index.rst。
创建文件 /home/dechin/projects/2021-quantum/circuit/Makefile。
创建文件 /home/dechin/projects/2021-quantum/circuit/make.bat。
完成:已创建初始目录结构。
You should now populate your master file /home/dechin/projects/2021-quantum/circuit/source/index.rst and create other documentation
source files. Use the Makefile to build the docs, like so:
make builder
where "builder" is one of the supported builders, e.g. html, latex or linkcheck.
在这一系列的配置之后,会在当前目录下生成几个新的文件(由于我们选择了build和source分离的模式,因此这里会有2个目录):
[dechin@dechin-manjaro circuit]$ ll
总用量 52
drwxr-xr-x 2 dechin dechin 4096 2月 23 00:04 build
-rw-r--r-- 1 dechin dechin 799 2月 23 00:04 make.bat
-rw-r--r-- 1 dechin dechin 638 2月 23 00:04 Makefile
-rw-r--r-- 1 dechin dechin 3055 2月 22 23:26 qcprinter.py
drwxr-xr-x 4 dechin dechin 4096 2月 23 00:04 source
在source目录下会产生一些配置文件,这里我们需要修改其中的conf.py
文件:
[dechin@dechin-manjaro circuit]$ cd source/
[dechin@dechin-manjaro source]$ ll
总用量 16
-rw-r--r-- 1 dechin dechin 1884 2月 23 00:04 conf.py
-rw-r--r-- 1 dechin dechin 443 2月 23 00:04 index.rst
drwxr-xr-x 2 dechin dechin 4096 2月 23 00:04 _static
drwxr-xr-x 2 dechin dechin 4096 2月 23 00:04 _templates
可以参考楼主的配置方案,这里我们主要是将主题配置成了rtd
的格式,同时打开了autodoc
的选项以及通过sys
配置了索引目录(索引目录不配置的话,有可能导致找不到模块,从而无法正常的生成API接口文档):
[dechin@dechin-manjaro circuit]$ cat source/conf.py

templates_path = ['_templates']

# This pattern also affects html_static_path and html_extra_path.
exclude_patterns = []
# -- Options for HTML output -------------------------------------------------
# The theme to use for HTML and HTML Help pages. See the documentation for

#
html_theme = 'sphinx_rtd_theme'
# Add any paths that contain custom static files (such as style sheets) here,
# relative to this directory. They are copied after the builtin static files,
# so a file named "default.css" will overwrite the builtin "default.css".
html_static_path = ['_static']
执行sphinx-build
指令将source中的rst文档编译成html文档,并输出到build目录下:

build 成功, 7 warnings.
HTML 页面保存在 build 目录。
在这个执行的过程中,有一部分的告警是跟注释规范相关的,其实不用处理也没有关系。接下来就可以打开build目录,查看已经生成成功的html文档,首先我们可以打开index.html,是常用的网页主页索引,大概内容如下图所示:
我们先点击这里的index和module看看内容,分别为下列的两个图所示:
最后在这个索引列表中我们点击进入qcprinter
这个类中,去查看详细的类的文档说明:
相应的函数注释内容也会在接口文档中体现:
需要注意的是,如果相关的类或者函数是受保护的类型,那么在sphinx生成的文档中是不会显示的(构造过程中自动忽略)。
如果在使用sphinx的过程中,发现代码中的注释文件并未被成功生成。如果成功执行的化,诸如module1.rst
和module2.rst
等会被自动的生成在source
目录下。这些rst文件没有被自动生成的情况下,可能需要使用sphinx-apidoc
去手动的添加:
[dechin@dechin-manjaro hiqfermion]$ sphinx-apidoc -f src/hiqfermion -o docs/source/
创建文件 docs/source/hiqfermion.rst。
创建文件 docs/source/hiqfermion.ansatzes.rst。
创建文件 docs/source/hiqfermion.drivers.rst。
创建文件 docs/source/hiqfermion.ops.rst。
创建文件 docs/source/hiqfermion.optimizers.rst。
创建文件 docs/source/hiqfermion.third_party.rst。
创建文件 docs/source/hiqfermion.transforms.rst。
创建文件 docs/source/hiqfermion.utils.rst。
创建文件 docs/source/modules.rst。
在上述示例中,src/hiqfermion
是源代码的存放地址,而docs/source
是生成的rst文件存放的位置。一般我们需要先生成这些rst文件,再使用sphinx-build
执行文档构建。
还有一点需要注意的是,如果我们直接使用sphinx-apidoc -f src/hiqfermion -o docs/source/
这样的指令去生成的话,最终文档中的结构都是hiqfermion.module1
和hiqfermion.module2
,这样显得不太简洁,因为正常情况下我们需要的是module1
和module2
这样比较直接的形式。此时我们可以更改其中的module.rst
文件。当然,首先我们需要逐一的去执行sphinx-apidoc来生成一些模块化的rst文件:sphinx-apidoc -f src/hiqfermion/module1 -o docs/source/
以及sphinx-apidoc -f src/hiqfermion/module2 -o docs/source/
分开执行。这样我们可以把module.rst
修改成这样的形式:
module1
=======
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 4
module1
module2
=======
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 4
module2
这里rst文档会自动搜寻同目录下的module1.rst
和module2.rst
文件,并自动化的生成文档。
在这篇文章中,我们主要通过一个量子线路打印的python项目介绍,也顺带通过sphinx将python项目的注释文档自动化的生成API接口文档,完成了一个项目开发及文档输出流程的简要分析,在实战中掌握更多的工具使用方法。
