OpenStack Neutron Specifications
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
This git repository is used to hold approved design specifications for additions
|
|
to the Neutron project. Reviews of the specs are done in gerrit, using a
|
|
similar workflow to how we review and merge changes to the code itself.
|
|
|
|
The layout of this repository is::
|
|
|
|
specs/<release>/
|
|
|
|
You can find an example spec in `doc/source/specs/template.rst`. A
|
|
skeleton that contains all the sections required for a spec
|
|
file is located in `doc/source/specs/skeleton.rst` and can
|
|
be copied, then filled in with the details of a new blueprint for
|
|
convenience.
|
|
|
|
Specifications are proposed for a given release by adding them to the
|
|
`specs/<release>` directory and posting it for review. The implementation
|
|
status of a blueprint for a given release can be found by looking at the
|
|
blueprint in launchpad. Not all approved blueprints will get fully implemented.
|
|
|
|
Specifications have to be re-proposed for every release. The review may be
|
|
quick, but even if something was previously approved, it should be re-reviewed
|
|
to make sure it still makes sense as written.
|
|
|
|
Prior to the Juno development cycle, this repository was not used for spec
|
|
reviews. Reviews prior to Juno were completed entirely through Launchpad
|
|
blueprints::
|
|
|
|
http://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron
|
|
|
|
Please note, Launchpad blueprints are still used for tracking the
|
|
current status of blueprints. For more information, see::
|

|

|
|
|
|
To validate that the specification is syntactically correct (i.e. get more
|
|
confidence in the Jenkins result), please execute the following command::
|
|
|
|
$ tox
|
|
|
|
After running ``tox``, the documentation will be available for viewing in HTML
|
|
format in the ``doc/build/`` directory. Please do not checkin the generated
|
|
HTML files as a part of your commit.
