+++++++++++++++++
This repository contains the cloud administrator documentation for the
OpenStack project. It includes documentation for:
* OpenStack Compute
* OpenStack Identity Service
* OpenStack Image Service
* OpenStack Object Storage
* OpenStack Dashboard
* OpenStack Network Connectivity
* OpenStack Volumes
For more details, see the `OpenStack Documentation HowTo wiki page
<http://wiki.openstack.org/Documentation/HowTo>`_.
In addition to the guides, this repository contains:
* api.openstack.org: ``doc/src/docbkx/openstack-api-site``
* docs.openstack.org: ``www``
Prerequisites
=============
`Apache Maven <http://maven.apache.org/>`_ must be installed to build the
documentation.
To install Maven 3 for Ubuntu 12.04 and later,and Debian wheezy and later::
apt-get install maven
On Fedora 15 and later::
yum install maven3
Building
========
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
Contributing
============
Our community welcomes all people interested in open source cloud computing,
and there are no formal membership requirements. The best way to join the
community is to talk with others online or at a meetup and offer contributions
