OpenStack Content Sharing
Requirements
- Non-proprietary OpenStack content resides in OpenStack repository. Includes substitution variables for product name, endpoints, and so on. Consumable by OpenStack and non-OpenStack consumers.
- Proprietary content resides in non-OpenStack repositories. Consumable by non-OpenStack consumers.
- Consumers include OpenStack source files and proprietary content in their books, as needed.
- When consumers generate output, they enter values for substitution variables. Ex: productname="Rackspace Cloud Servers"
Risks
Implementation
- Proof of concept: Verify possibility of cross-repository communication. Work out how to implement substitution variables.
- Determine which substitution variables are required. Product name? Endpoints? Version number?
- Update OpenStack source with substitution variables and publish these for public consumption.
- Update non-OpenStack book files to include OpenStack source.
