Noxfile is not updated with Sphinx version pin

[dandhlee]

is there a plan to use templated noxfile.py for this repo? If so, please help make it use the templated version, otherwise I'll manually update the noxfile content.

Not quite yet fixed as per Tres' comment in #224.

noxfile.py in this repo differs from the templated version on several counts:

• It doesn't exclude docfx from the default session list.
• It has a pytypes session.
• It does not have a system session.
• It has an additional unit_grpc_gcp session which runs unit tests with grpcio-gcp installed.
• It uses flake8-import-order in its lint session.

I see. It sounds like noxfile.py file in this repo has a lot more stuff that needs to stay, if that's the case I'm happy to come back and manually update when needed for docfx. However, for other parts of noxfile.py, is there a way we're keeping things up to date with the template?

is there a way we're keeping things up to date with the template?

Nope. The pain threshhold for re-injecting the needed changes using s.replace() is pretty high, especially because the template gets changed for "arbitrary" reasons, which tends to break such replacements, proportionally to their number / complexity.

For that much stuff we need to add for this repo, it does seem fairly obnoxious to be adding multiple lines of s.replace(), I think it's fine to move on with just manually updating noxfile.py on this repo then 👍

Thank you!
