Can't get ``imported-members`` to work.

[amueller]

Following the discussion at #1892 I tried to make the scikit-learn docs build using the imported-members flag.

I tried autodoc_default_flags = ['members', 'inherited-members', 'imported-members'] but that didn't include any additional classes. I also just did autodoc_default_flags = ['imported-members'] with the same result. (version 1.3.1)

Did I misunderstand anything? Were there changes to this in master?
And is there a timeline for a release?

:imported-members: works for me when the package's __init__.py imports classes from sub-modules; the classes are meant as an interface to the module's provided functionality. E.g.:

# krakenex/krakenex/__init__.py
from .api import API
from .connection import Connection
__all__ = ['API', 'Connection']

# krakenex/doc/source/index.rst
.. automodule:: krakenex
   :members:
   :imported-members:

@amueller As I understand, you want to document sub-modules in scikit-learn's __all__, correct?.. JIC, I haven't found a way to do it (yet).

I think what I wanted to do is possible in 1.3.2. I'm not sure how it related to that flag.

Is the issue OK to close then ? ;)

Let's close as I don't have time to investigate now and the original problem is solved. We can always reopen.
