mkdocstrings Attrs Support

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. As of right now, this library does not support attrs dataclasses. Default values or types are not recognised.

Describe the solution you'd like Attrs to be detected and their attributes documented correctly

Describe alternatives you've considered Writing the documentation in the class docstring manually.

Additional context Attrs: https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/

As per https://github.com/mkdocstrings/mkdocstrings/issues/317#issuecomment-922075687, the new extractor will make it easy to write extensions to support third-party libs such as attrs.

Any chance to bump this? :)

I attempted to implement an extension for Griffe. However it really needs to be a post processing extension. To my knowledge this isn't possible yet

Thank you for giving it a try @LordOfPolls. Post-processing extensions are on the Griffe to do list :slightly_smiling_face: I'll also try to think a bit more about attrs support in particular.

Hi @pawamoy, just checking in; has there been any movement on this?

Hey @LordOfPolls, no movement yet! But I've recently announced that I'm now working full-time on open source, so the development pace of mkdocstrings should greatly increase :slightly_smiling_face:

Oh neat, congratulations on the move. If attrs support became a insiders feature, i'd definitely jump on your sponsors list
