Building

Various manuals are in subdirectories of the doc/ directory.

Guides

Some pre-requisites are needed to build the guides. If you are using a Linux operating system you can generate a report of missing local requirements with the bindep command:

$ tox -e bindep

All guides are in the RST format. You can use tox to prepare virtual environment and build all guides (HTML only):

$ tox -e docs

You can also build a specific guide.

For example, to build OpenStack Virtual Machine Image Guide, use the following command:

$ tox -e build -- image-guide

You can find the root of the generated HTML documentation at:

doc/image-guide/build/html/index.html

To build a specific guide with a PDF file, add a -pdf option like:

$ tox -e build -- image-guide --pdf

The generated PDF file will be copied to the root directory of the generated HTML documentation.

If you get this message make: xelatex: No such file or directory it means your local environment does not have LaTeX installed. Read Getting LaTeX for instructions.

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 the OpenStack CI jobs.

If you like to run individual tests, run:

tox -e checkbuild - to actually build the manual
tox -e checklang - to build translated manuals
tox -e checkniceness - to run the niceness tests
tox -e linkcheck - to run the tests for working remote URLs

The tox command uses the openstack-doc-tools package to run the tests.

Generated files
