Petr Kovar cf8b93918c Add install-guide for swift
This adds swift-specific contents from the OpenStack Installation Guide
in the swift repo per [1]. A separate change will remove the swift contents
from the OpenStack Installation Guide for Newton per [2].

The swift install-guide structure is based on the Install Guide
Cookiecutter [3].

Also adds tox.ini environment for install-guide and adds
openstackdocs-theme to test-requirements.txt.

Install and configure the controller node for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS

This section describes how to install and configure the proxy service that handles requests for the account, container, and object services operating on the storage nodes. For simplicity, this guide installs and configures the proxy service on the controller node. However, you can run the proxy service on any node with network connectivity to the storage nodes. Additionally, you can install and configure the proxy service on multiple nodes to increase performance and redundancy. For more information, see the Deployment Guide.

This section applies to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and CentOS 7.

Install and configure components

Note

Default configuration files vary by distribution. You might need to add these sections and options rather than modifying existing sections and options. Also, an ellipsis (...) in the configuration snippets indicates potential default configuration options that you should retain.

  1. Install the packages:

    # yum install openstack-swift-proxy python-swiftclient \
      python-keystoneclient python-keystonemiddleware \
      memcached

    Note

    Complete OpenStack environments already include some of these packages.

    1. Obtain the proxy service configuration file from the Object Storage source repository:

      # curl -o /etc/swift/proxy-server.conf https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/swift/plain/etc/proxy-server.conf-sample?h=stable/mitaka
