I have my source code in one directory, and in another I use Sphinx to make the documentation. In the documentation, I reference certain sections of code, which you can do by line number, or you can do by some pattern to begin and end.

Since I control all my source code, I put in comments with certain flags for regions of code.

I can then reference said section of code as follows

  .. literalinclude:: ../../src/demo06/demo.py
     :language: python
     :start-after: doc-region-begin define uniform scale
     :end-before: doc-region-end define uniform scale
     :linenos:
     :lineno-match:
     :caption: src/demo06/demo.py
