OpenStack Manuals

This repository contains documentation for the OpenStack project.

For more details, see the OpenStack Documentation wiki page.

It includes these manuals:

  • Admin User Guide
  • Architecture Design Guide
  • Cloud Administrator Guide
  • Command-Line Interface Reference
  • Configuration Reference
  • End User Guide
  • Heat Orchestration Template reference
  • HOT Guide
  • Installation Guides
  • Virtual Machine Image Guide

In addition to the guides, this repository contains:

  • docs.openstack.org: www

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 that the openstack-manuals/doc/user-guides is the RST based guide, So we can't use mvn command. You can use tox to prepare virtual environment and build it:

tox -e docs

The root of the generated End User Guide HTML documentation is:

openstack-manuals/doc/user-guides/build/html/index.html

The root of the generated Admin User Guide HTML documentation is:

openstack-manuals/doc/user-guides/build-admin/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 URLs
  • 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 -e checklang - to build translated manuals

tox will use the openstack-doc-tools package for execution of these tests.
