API-Site repository

This repository contains documentation for the OpenStack project.

For details, see the OpenStack Documentation wiki page, which includes these pages and PDFs:

  • API Quick Start
  • API Complete Reference (web pages)
  • API Reference PDFs
  • API Guide (in progress)

In addition to these documents, this repository contains:

  • developer.openstack.org: www
  • Writing your first OpenStack application tutorial (in progress): firstapp

Prerequisites

To build the documentation, you must install Apache Maven.

To install Maven 3 for Ubuntu 12.04 or later or Debian 7 ("wheezy") or later:

apt-get install maven

On Fedora 20 or later:

yum install maven

To run tests, you must install Python Tox.

To install Tox for Ubuntu 14.04 or later:

apt-get install python-tox python-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev

"Writing your First OpenStack Application" tutorial

To build the "Writing your first OpenStack application" tutorial, you must install Graphviz.

To install Graphviz for Ubuntu 12.04 or later or Debian 7 ("wheezy") or later:

apt-get install graphviz

On Fedora 22 and later:

dnf install graphviz

On openSUSE:

zypper install graphviz

On Mac OSX with Homebrew installed:

brew install graphviz

Build and update API docs

To complete code reviews in this repository, use the standard OpenStack Gerrit workflow . For details, see Gerrit Workflow.

To build and update the API documents:

  1. Open a Terminal window.

  2. Change into a directory where you want to clone api-site.

  3. Run this command to clone openstack/api-site:

    git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/api-site
  4. CD into the api-site directory.

  5. Run these commands to ensure that you have the latest changes:

    git remote update
    git checkout master
    git pull origin master
  6. To check out a new branch:

    git checkout -b "*my_branch*"

    Otherwise, to check out an existing review:

    git review -d change-number /* where change-number is the change number of the review
  7. Make your changes.

  8. Run this command to build the docs locally:

    mvn clean generate-sources

#. To check in your changes, see Gerrit Workflow.

  • The root of the generated API guide (in progress) is:

    api-site/api-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/api-guide/index.html
  • The generated PDFs for the API pages are at:

    api-site/api-ref-guides/target/docbkx/pdf/*.pdf
  • The root of the API quick start is at:

    api-site/api-quick-start/target/docbkx/webhelp/api-quick-start-onepager-external/api-quick-start-onepager.pdf

Run tests

To use the same tests that are used as part of our Jenkins gating jobs, install the Python tox package and run tox from the top-level directory.

To run individual tests:

  • tox -e checkniceness - Niceness tests
  • tox -e checksyntax - Syntax checks
  • tox -e checkdeletions - Verifies that no deleted files are referenced
  • tox -e checkbuild - Builds the manual

To run these tests, the Tox package uses the OpenStack doc tools package.

The OpenStack doc tools require Maven for the build check.
