+# Read the Docs integration
+
+The {obj}`readthedocs_install` rule provides support for making it easy
+to build for, and deploy to, Read the Docs. It does this by having Bazel do
+all the work of building, and then the outputs are copied to where Read the Docs
+expects served content to be placed. By having Bazel do the majority of work,
+you have more certainty that the docs you generate locally will match what
+is created in the Read the Docs build environment.
+
+Setting this up is conceptually simple: make the Read the Docs build call `bazel
+run` with the appropriate args. To do this, it requires gluing a couple things
+together, most of which can be copy/pasted from the examples below.
+
+## `.readthedocs.yaml` config
+
+In order for Read the Docs to call our custom commands, we have to use the
+advanced `build.commands` setting of the config file. This needs to do two key
+things:
+1. Install Bazel
+2. Call `bazel run` with the appropriate args.
+
+In the example below, `npm` is used to install Bazelisk and a helper shell
+script, `readthedocs_build.sh` is used to construct the Bazel invocation.
+
+The key purpose of the shell script it to set the
+`--@rules_python//sphinxdocs:extra_env` and
+`--@rules_python//sphinxdocs:extra_defines` flags. These are used to communicate
+`READTHEDOCS*` environment variables and settings to the Bazel invocation.
+
+## BUILD config
+
+In your build file, the {obj}`readthedocs_install` rule handles building the
+docs and copying the output to the Read the Docs output directory
+(`$READTHEDOCS_OUTPUT` environment variable). As input, it takes a `sphinx_docs`
+target (the generated docs).
+
+## conf.py config
+
+Normally, readthedocs will inject extra content into your `conf.py` file
+to make certain integration available (e.g. the version selection flyout).
+However, because our yaml config uses the advanced `build.commands` feature,
+those config injections are disabled and we have to manually re-enable them.
+
+To do this, we modify `conf.py` to detect `READTHEDOCS=True` in the environment
+and perform some additional logic. See the example code below for the
+modifications.
+
+Depending on your theme, you may have to tweak the conf.py; the example is
+based on using the sphinx_rtd_theme.
+
+## Example
+
+```
+# File: .readthedocs.yaml

+    nodejs: "19"
+  commands:
+    - env
+    - npm install -g @bazel/bazelisk
+    - bazel version
+    # Put the actual action behind a shell script because it's
+    # easier to modify than the yaml config.
+    - docs/readthedocs_build.sh
