sphinxcontrib-ocaml

sphinxcontrib-ocaml is a Sphinx (1.6.3+) extension to document OCaml libraries. It provides a Sphinx domain for OCaml and autodoc-like directives to generate documentation from source code.

It’s licensed under the MIT license. It’s available in two parts, on the Python package index and OPAM (both are required). Its documentation and its source code are on GitHub.
