Problem description

Documentation for openstack-doc-tools and openstackdocstheme is currently divided between various README files in the project repositories and the OpenStack Documentation Contributor Guide. In some cases content is duplicated, outdated, or missing.

Proposed change

Create Sphinx documentation projects within the openstack-doc-tools and openstackdocstheme repositories, update and complete the documentation for both repositories, then publish the guides to docs.openstack.org/developer/.

Add appropriate links to the new guides from the OpenStack Documentation Contributor Guide and the repository README files.

The openstack-doc-tools repository already has a Sphinx documentation project that is not currently published but that can be used as the basis for the guide.

openstackdocstheme also has a Sphinx documentation project that provides sample content for theme testing which should be retained or incorporated into the published guide.

Alternatives

  • Consolidate the content into a new OpenStack Documentation Tools Guide in the openstack-manuals repository.
  • Consolidate the content into the existing OpenStack Documentation Contributor Guide.
  • Maintain the status quo (do nothing).
