OpenStack Manuals
+++++++++++++++++
This repository contains documentation for the OpenStack project.
For more details, see the `OpenStack Documentation Contributor
Guide <http://docs.openstack.org/contributor-guide/>`_.
It includes these manuals:
* Administrator Guide
* Architecture Design Guide
* Command-Line Interface Reference
* Configuration Reference
* Documentation Contributor Guide
* End User Guide
* High Availability Guide
* Installation Tutorials
* Networking Guide
* Operations Guide
* Virtual Machine Image Guide
In addition to the guides, this repository contains:
* docs.openstack.org contents: ``www``
Building
========
Various manuals are in subdirectories of the ``doc/`` directory.
Guides
------
All guides are in the RST format. You can use ``tox`` to prepare
virtual environment and build all 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::
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 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
tox will use the openstack-doc-tools package for execution of these
tests.
