Prerequisites
Apache Maven must be installed to build the documentation.
To install Maven 3 for Ubuntu 12.04 and later,and Debian wheezy and later:
apt-get install maven
On Fedora 15 and later:
yum install maven3
Building
The different manuals are in subdirectories of the
openstack-manuals/doc/
directory.
For example, the root directory of the OpenStack User Guide
is openstack-manuals/doc/user-guide
.
To build a specific guide, look for a pom.xml
file
within a subdirectory, then run the mvn
command in that
directory. For example:
cd openstack-manuals/doc/user-guide/
mvn clean generate-sources
The generated PDF documentation file is:
openstack-manuals/doc/user-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/user-guide.pdf
The root of the generated HTML documentation is:
openstack-manuals/doc/src/user-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/user-guide/content/index.html
Testing of changes and building of the manual
Install the python tox package and run tox
from the
top-level directory to use the same tests that are done as part of our
Jenkins gating jobs.
If you like to run individual tests, run: *
tox -e checkniceness
- to run the niceness tests *
tox -e checksyntax
- to run syntax checks *
tox -e checkdeletions
- to check that no deleted files are
referenced * tox -e checkbuild
- to actually build the
manual
tox will use the openstack-doc-tools package for execution of these tests.
