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 20 and later:
yum install maven
On openSUSE 13.1 and later:
zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/building/openSUSE_13.1/devel:tools:building.repo
zypper install maven
Building
The different manuals are in subdirectories of the
openstack-manuals/doc/
directory.
DocBook guides
For example, the root directory of the OpenStack Virtual Machine
Image Guide is openstack-manuals/doc/image-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/image-guide/
mvn clean generate-sources
The generated PDF documentation file is:
openstack-manuals/doc/image-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/image-guide/image-guide.pdf
The root of the generated HTML documentation is:
openstack-manuals/doc/image-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/image-guide/content/index.html
RST guides
Then, you can see some guides written in the RST format, so we can't use mvn command. You can use tox to prepare virtual environment and build all RST based guides:
tox -e docs
You can also build a specific guide. For example, to build OpenStack End User Guide, use the following command:
tox -e build -- user-guide
You can find the root of the generated HTML documentation at:
openstack-manuals/doc/user-guide/build/html/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 checklinks
- to run the tests for working remote URLstox -e checkniceness
- to run the niceness teststox -e checksyntax
- to run syntax checkstox -e checkdeletions
- to check that no deleted files are referencedtox -e checkbuild
- to actually build the manualtox -e checklang
- to build translated manuals
tox will use the openstack-doc-tools package for execution of these tests.
