Jeremy Stanley 389b4065b8 Remove tox locale overrides
* tox.ini: The LANG, LANGUAGE and LC_ALL environment overrides were
introduced originally during the testr migration in an attempt to be
conservative about the possibility that locale settings in the
calling environment could cause consistency problems for test runs.
In actuality, this should be unnecessary and any place where it does
cause issues ought to be considered an actual bug. Also, having
these in the configuration actively causes older pip to have
problems with non-ASCII content in some package metadata files under
Python 3, so drop it now.

Object Storage API

This repository contains the RESTful API information for the OpenStack Object Storage Service, also known as Swift. The Swift project provides services for object storage and retrieval as well as assigning metadata.

Prerequisites

Apache Maven 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 manual is in the openstack-object-storage-dev directory.

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-object-storage-dev
mvn clean generate-sources

The generated PDF documentation file is:

openstack-object-storage-dev/target/docbkx/webhelp/api/openstack-object-storage/1.0/os-objectstorage-devguide-1.0.pdf

The root of the generated HTML documentation is:

openstack-object-storage-dev/target/docbkx/webhelp/api/openstack-object-storage/1.0/content/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 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 will use the openstack-doc-tools package for execution of these tests. openstack-doc-tools has a requirement on maven for the build check.

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 through Launchpad, the OpenStack wiki, or blogs. We welcome all types of contributions, from blueprint designs to documentation to testing to deployment scripts.

Installing
