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.
PDF builds are accomplished using LaTeX as an intermediate format.
Currently, you can generate a PDF file for a limited number of guides.
The supported list is maintained in the
tools/build-all-rst.sh
file.
If you get the error message
make: xelatex: No such file or directory
, it means your
local environment does not have LaTeX installed. Read Getting LaTeX and Install
dependencies for building documentation for instructions.
Testing of changes and building of all manuals
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; this also generates a directorypublish-docs
that contains the built files for inspectiontox -e checklang
- to build translated manualstox -e linters
- to run the niceness tests, for example, to see extra whitespacestox -e linkcheck
- to run the tests for working remote URLs
The tox
command uses the openstack-doc-tools package to
run the tests.
