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 20 and later::
|
|
|
|
yum install maven
|
|
|
|
On openSUSE 13.1 and later::
|
|
|
|
zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/building/openSUSE_13.1/devel:tools:building.repo
|
|
zypper install maven
|
|
|
|
Building
|
|
========
|
|
The different manuals are in subdirectories of the
|
|
``openstack-manuals/doc/`` directory.
|
|
|
|
DocBook guides
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
For example, the root directory of the *OpenStack Virtual Machine Image Guide*
|
|
is ``openstack-manuals/doc/image-guide``.
|
|
|
|
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/image-guide/
|
|
mvn clean generate-sources
|
|
|
|
The generated PDF documentation file is::
|
|
|
|
openstack-manuals/doc/image-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/image-guide/image-guide.pdf
|
|
|
|
The root of the generated HTML documentation is::
|
|
|
|
openstack-manuals/doc/image-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/image-guide/content/index.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
RST guides
|
|
----------
|
|
Then, you can see some guides written in the RST format, so we can't use mvn command.
|
|
You can use tox to prepare virtual environment and build all RST based 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::
|
|
|
|
openstack-manuals/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 checklinks`` - to run the tests for working remote URLs
|
|
* ``tox -e checkniceness`` - to run the niceness tests
|
|
* ``tox -e checksyntax`` - to run syntax checks
|
|
* ``tox -e checkdeletions`` - to check that no deleted files are referenced
|
|
* ``tox -e checkbuild`` - to actually build the manual
|
|
* ``tox -e checklang`` - to build translated manuals
|
|
|
|
tox will use the openstack-doc-tools package for execution of these
|
|
tests.
