Is Restructured Text supported ?

Thanks a lot for this package. I just came across it today and love the way it simplifies the documentation generation. As I attempted to test a few things, I ran into a question and hoping you can help clarify it.

• Project Structure

Project Name 
   docs 
      doc_test.md 
   src  
      doc_test.py 

• mkdocs.yml configuration file contents

site_name: Project Name
nav:
    - Home: index.md
    - About: about.md
    - Code Reference:
        - DocTest: doc_test.md
plugins:
    - search
    - mkdocstrings
theme: "material"

- *mkdocstrings* version: 0.15.

All of the code in the package that I am developing has docstrings in restructured text format. I noticed that version 0.15 has started to offer support for restructured text. I am not clear what is meant by this:

reStructuredText-style sections support in docstrings: pytkdocs understands all the reStructuredText fields, and returns structured data for mkdocstrings to render them. Note: only RST style is supported, not the whole markup.

Here is my script:

from random import randrange
from importlib.metadata import version

version('mkdocstrings')


# User Inputs
length_of_list = 10
my_list = [randrange(0, 100) for x in range(0, length_of_list)]


def add_list_restructured_text_doc_style(input_list: list) -> float:
    """Calculates the sum of the items in the list

    :param input_list: items to be summed
    """
    return float(sum(input_list))


def add_list_google_doc_style(input_list: list) -> float:
    """
    Calculates the sum of the items in the list.

    Args:
        input_list: items to be summed

    Returns:
        Sum of the elements of the list
    """
    return float(sum(input_list))

Apologies, it’s hard to find in the docs: you need to explicitly select this non-default docstring style.

https://mkdocstrings.github.io/handlers/python/#selection

plugins:
  - mkdocstrings:
      handlers:
        python:
          selection:
            docstring_style: restructured-text

docstring_style is implemented, and used as before, except for the restructured-text style which is renamed sphinx.

so instead of : docstring_style: restructured-text

now it is : docstring_style: sphinx
