Building the docs

Dependencies

Sphinx

You'll need sphinx (the python one) and if you are using the virtualenv you'll need to install it in the virtualenv specifically so that it can load the cinder modules.

pip install Sphinx

Graphviz

Some of the diagrams are generated using the dot language from Graphviz.

sudo apt-get install graphviz

Use make

Just type make:

% make

Look in the Makefile for more targets.

Manually

Generate the code.rst file so that Sphinx will pull in our docstrings:
% ./generate_autodoc_index.sh > source/code.rst
Run `sphinx_build`:
% sphinx-build -b html source build/html

Use tox

The easiest way to build the docs and avoid dealing with all dependencies is to let tox prepare a virtualenv and run the build_sphinx target inside the virtualenv:

% cd ..
% tox -e docs

The docs have been built

Check out the build directory to find them. Yay!
