You can use :Version: |version| in your rst

I actually never use Python Sphinx, but I remember seeing a similar question on SO. After searching through, I found the Q+A here

So you could output the config value directly into your index.rst master doc.

I tried that but it didnt seem to show on generated HTML page. I am using forked version of read the docs theme. I instead found a different method and much more simpler. I just use `:Version: |version|` in my rst. – kaosar Jun 13 '16 at 22:48
