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 bindepAll guides are in the RST format. You can use tox to
prepare virtual environment and build all guides (HTML only):
$ tox -e docsYou can also build a specific guide.
For example, to build OpenStack Virtual Machine Image Guide, use the following command:
$ tox -e build -- image-guideYou can find the root of the generated HTML documentation at:
doc/image-guide/build/html/index.htmlTo build a specific guide with a PDF file, add a -pdf
option like:
$ tox -e build -- image-guide --pdfThe 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 manualtox -e checklang- to build translated manualstox -e linters- to run the niceness teststox -e linkcheck- to run the tests for working remote URLs
The tox command uses the openstack-doc-tools package to
run the tests.
