  • Add sphinxcontrib.actdiag to Sphinx extentions in conf.py (Included in SPHINX_ENV_INSTALL, Sphinx Environment via defaults.py)

This is your .rst file code example to create a Activity Diagram http://blockdiag.com/en/actdiag/index.html:

Table 1.4 actdiag Options

Option	Values
:align:	left, center or right
:scale:	0-100 percentage value
:caption:	text to label Figure
:name:	text to create hyperlink for sphinx (no spaces)
:desctable:	Adds description table as shown in example. (no spaces in labels)

.. actdiag::
    :align: center
    :caption: Example - Activity Diagram
    :name: triton_coe_test_actdiag
    :scale: 100
    :desctable:

    actdiag {
        Level-1 ->  Level-2 ->  Level-3;
                    Level-2 ->              Req-Verify;
                                Level-3 ->  Req-Verify;
        lane COE {
            Level-1 [description = "Integration in Lab 9"];
        }
        lane IPT {
            Level-2 [description = "Qualification in Lab 10 West"];
            Level-3 [description = "Certification in Triton System Center (TSC)"];
        }
        lane Program {
            Req-Verify [description = "Requirements Verification"];
        }
    }

The previous code-block will generate this Activity Diagram:
