Developer Guide =============== .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 design components invocation caches developing_elements dib_lint stable_interfaces vhd_creation Module index This documentation explains how to get started with creating your own disk-image-builder elements as well as some high level concepts for element creation. Quickstart ---------- To get started developing with ``diskimage-builder``, install to a ``virtualenv``:: $ mkdir dib $ cd dib $ virtualenv env $ source env/bin/activate $ git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/diskimage-builder $ cd diskimage-builder $ pip install -e . You can now simply use ``disk-image-create`` to start building images and testing your changes. When you are done editing, use ``git review`` to submit changes to the upstream gerrit. Python module documentation --------------------------- For internal documentation on the DIB python components, see the :ref:`modindex`. Finding Work ------------ We maintain a list of low-hanging-fruit tags on launchpad: * `https://bugs.launchpad.net/diskimage-builder/+bugs?field.tag=low-hanging-fruit `_
