Prereqs
Apache Maven must be installed to build the documentation.
To install Maven for Ubuntu:
apt-get install maven2
Building
To build the Compute Admin Manual, Object Storage Admin Manual, and Image Service Manual:
cd openstack-manuals/doc
mvn clean generate-sources
The different manuals are in subdirectories of the
openstack-manuals/doc/src/docbkx
directory. For example,
the root directory of the OpenStack Compute
Administration Guide is
openstack-manuals/doc/src/docbkx/openstack-compute-admin
.
To build a specific guide, look for a pom.xml file within a subdirectory, then run the mvn command in that directory. For example:
cd openstack-manuals/doc/src/docbkx/openstack-compute-admin
mvn clean generate-sources
The generated PDF documentation file is:
openstack-manuals/doc/src/docbkx/openstack-compute-admin/target/docbkx/webhelp/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/os-compute-adminguide-trunk.pdf
The root of the generated HTML documentation is:
openstack-manuals/doc/src/docbkx/openstack-compute-admin/target/docbkx/webhelp/os-compute-adminguide/content/index.html
