Leif Madsen a4a2ed7f99 Add note in README about Python 3 changes
Add a node that explains that for Python 3 you'll need to add a
.decode() function in the gitsha command. Also, note that you
need to import subprocess in the conf.py file.

OpenStack docs.openstack.org Sphinx Theme
=========================================
Theme and extension support for Sphinx documentation that is published to
docs.openstack.org and developer.openstack.org.
Intended for use by OpenStack `projects governed by the Technical Committee`_.
.. _`projects governed by the Technical Committee`:
http://governance.openstack.org/reference/projects/index.html
Using the Theme
===============
Prior to using this theme, ensure your project can use the OpenStack
brand by referring to the brand guidelines at
http://www.openstack.org/brand.
Update the requirements list for your project to
include ``openstackdocstheme`` (usually in test-requirements.txt).
If your project previously used the oslosphinx theme (without modifying
the header navigation), remove oslosphinx from your requirements list,
and then in your ``conf.py`` you can remove the import statement and
extension listing for oslosphinx.
Some of the settings below are included in the file generated by Sphinx when
you initialize a project, so they may already have values that need to be
changed.
Then modify your Sphinx settings in ``conf.py`` to include::
import openstackdocstheme
html_theme = 'openstackdocs'
html_theme_path = [openstackdocstheme.get_html_theme_path()]
Also, you must include these variables so that the "Log a bug" link sends
metadata for the project where the docs reside. You'll also need to add
``import subprocess`` to the top of your ``conf.py`` file::
# We ask git for the SHA checksum
# The git SHA checksum is used by "log-a-bug"
git_cmd = ["/usr/bin/git", "rev-parse", "HEAD"]
gitsha = subprocess.Popen(
git_cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()[0].strip('\n')
# tag that reported bugs will be tagged with
bug_tag = "your-chosen-tag"
# source tree
pwd = os.getcwd()
# html_context allows us to pass arbitrary values into the html template
html_context = {"pwd": pwd, "gitsha": gitsha}
# Must set this variable to include year, month, day, hours, and minutes.
html_last_updated_fmt = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M'
.. note::
If you're using Python 3 to build, you'll need to adjust the ``gitsha``
command to add a ``.decode('utf-8')`` option.
::
gitsha = subprocess.Popen(
git_cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()[0].decode('utf-8').strip('\n')
