Sphinx 6.0.0: Theme Error: Reason: UndefinedError("'logo' is undefined")

[juliotux]

After upgrade to sphinx==6.0.0, a ThemeError is raised. This error disapear when using another theme, so I think it's related to pydata_sphinx_theme.

I'm also seeing this on a different project.

I added a section logo in html_theme_options and it worked:

html_theme_options = {
   "logo": {
      "image_light": "logo-light.png",
      "image_dark": "logo-dark.png",
   }
}

The problem is coming from here:

pydata-sphinx-theme/src/pydata_sphinx_theme/theme/pydata_sphinx_theme/components/navbar-logo.html

Line 10 in 13d4692

{% set is_logo = logo or theme_logo.get("image_light") or theme_logo.get("image_dark") %}

I need to investigate but it seems the default "logo" (provided by Sphinx itself) is not reaching the template anymore.

As a workaround and as @sdpython suggested, you can rely on the html_theme_options logo to overwrite Sphinx definition.

Apparently, logo and favicon were removed in Sphinx 6, see sphinx-doc/sphinx#11062 and sphinx-doc/sphinx#11063.

I'm seeing this same error when writing the first page:

| pickling environment... done
| checking consistency... done
| preparing documents... done
| writing output... [ 25%] changes                                               
| Theme error:
| An error happened in rendering the page changes.
| Reason: UndefinedError("'logo' is undefined")

No text logo anywhere in the pysumreg repository, BTW.

The error was encountered in a local CI build of the publishing workflow using act. The local CI installs Downloading sphinx-6.0.0-py3-none-any.whl (3.0 MB). The error is reported on the first file to be output.

Adding an installation restriction on the Sphinx version allows the build to complete:

      - name: Install Sphinx build requirements
        run: |
          pip install setuptools-scm "sphinx<6" pydata-sphinx-theme
          echo "--------------- diagnostic pip list ---------------"
          pip list
