Thanks for the PR.

I think we also need to activate the extension in the conf.py file so that it gets used.

There is a mechanism inside Sphinx, which allows extensions to be based on other extensions, so that they get activated automatically. I think we should integrate the usage of this mechanism into this PR as well, then the user doesn't need to do anything else as simply installing our extension.

Hi @danwos

Thanks for the review.

I updated the PR.

Is the new commit what you meant?

Sorry, not really.
We can configure Sphinx-Data-Viewer to activate the Sphinx-Query extension whenever a user loads our extension via extensions = ["sphinx_data_viewer"].
If we don't do this, the user needs to write:

extensions = [
   "sphinx_data_viewer",
   "sphinxcontrib.jquery"
   ]

And I guess a lot of users may miss this step.
But I can support you here and figure out how to do it, just need some days to find a free slot...

@danwos Thanks! Keep me posted on that.

Finally found some time and even better the Sphinx function to load other extensions.
See: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/extdev/appapi.html#sphinx.application.Sphinx.setup_extension

I hope we can call it in the setup() function of Sphinx-Data-Viewer. Something like:

setup_extension("sphinxcontrib.jquery")

I hope this does the trick without adding it to the user's conf.py file.

@jgarte: Do you find some time to add this to your PR?

Help needed here? As this is blocking #12
