Documentation
|
|
=============
|
|
Each UCP component will maintain documentation addressing two audiences:
|
|
|
|
#. Consumer documentation
|
|
#. Developer documentation
|
|
|
|
Consumer Documentation
|
|
----------------------
|
|
Consumer documentation is that which is intended to be referenced by users of
|
|
the component. This includes information about each of the following:
|
|
|
|
- Introduction - the purpose and charter of the software
|
|
- Features - capabilies the software has
|
|
- Usage - interaction with the software - e.g. API and CLI documentation
|
|
- Setup/Installation - how an end user would set up and run the software
|
|
including system requirements
|
|
- Support - where and how a user engages support or makes change requests for
|
|
the software
|
|
|
|
Developer Documentation
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
Developer documentation is used by developers of the software, and addresses
|
|
the following topics:
|
|
|
|
- Archiecture and Design - features and structure of the software
|
|
- Inline, Code, Method - documentaiton specific to the fuctions and procedures
|
|
in the code
|
|
- Development Environment - explaining how a developer would need to configure
|
|
a working environment for the software
|
|
- Contribution - how a developer can contribute to the software
|
|
|
|
Format
|
|
------
|
|
There are multiple means by which consumers and developers will read the
|
|
documentation for UCP components. The two common places for UCP components are
|
|
`Github`_ in the form of README and code-based documentation, and
|
|
`Readthedocs`_ for more complete/formatted documentation.
|
|
|
|
Documentation that is expected to be read in Github must exist and may use
|
|
either `reStructuredText`_ or `Markdown`_. This generally would be limited to
|
|
the README file at the root of the project and/or a documentation directory.
|
|
The README should direct users to the published documentation location.
|
|
|
|
Documentation intended for Readthedocs will use reStructuredText, and should
|
|
provide a `Sphinx`_ build of the documentation.
|
|
|
|
Finding Treasuremap
|
|
-------------------
|
|
`Treasuremap`_ is a project that serves as a starting point for the larger
|
|
Containerized Cloud Platform, and provides context for the Undercloud Platform
|
|
component projects.
|
|
|
|
Undercloud component projects should include the following at the top of the
|
|
main/index page of their `Readthedocs`_ documentation:
|
|
|
|
.. tip::
|
|
|
|
{{component name}} is part of the containerized Local Control Plane (cLCP).
|
