ideas

  • DONE: tests for POD correctness
  • DONE: add make targets to check doc
  • DONE: generate documentation for testapi with pod2html testapi.pm > testapi.html
  • DONE: write a script to checkout gh-pages branch on github and put auto-generated documentation there
  • DONE: call this as part of travis commands
  • include (or reference) the html document instead of the manually written testapi table in openQA documentation
  • DONE: automate the documentation generation of openQA docs
  • optional: beautify

I think this is quite important. The only separate documentation for os-autoinst should be "this is how you run os-autoinst without OpenQA" and likewise for OpenQA if it is practical to run it with something other than os-autoinst. I think perhaps there has been some progress on this since it was posted though?

very limited progress. Since creating this issue I created two tests as part of os-autoinst:

  • t/05-pod.pl
  • t/06-pod-coverage.pl

Also, I added targets to the Makefile, e.g. "check-doc", which checks spelling and pod correctness.

I added some ideas to the description how to continue.

Thanks for keeping track of such issues :-)

To publish the documentation the recommended way seems to be to use travis and scripts to publish to the gh-pages branch, e.g. see

If concerned about travis pushing something to our repository then one could create another fork and only give push access there.
If you are still not convinced I I suggest to use ci.opensuse.org and trigger the doc building and publishing there.

Triggering from ci.opensuse.org SGTM :)

github has updated the procedure how to interact with github pages, should make it even easier for us: https://github.com/blog/2289-publishing-with-github-pages-now-as-easy-as-1-2-3

With pr#1106 Most of the ideas proposed by this PR are already covered.

However, it would be great to have also the test library's api (os-autoinst-distri-opensuse for starters) generated within the same fashion, for that we can use Pod::Autopod to generate automated pod for modules existing in the lib/ directory.

http://open.qa/api/testapi/#_assert_screen does not seem to be up-to-date after https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/pull/690 got merged. when is a regeneration of os-autoinst doc triggered?

Actions #14

Updated by coolo over 7 years ago

we need to create a push to master of openQA repo. There is hopefully activity on openQA repo that we don't have to create something artificial

Updated by okurz@suse.de over 7 years ago

My original idea was that os-autoinst publishes his own gh-pages and the
openQA doc page only statically references the os-autoinst gh-pages.

documentation publishing does not work anymore -> https://travis-ci.org/os-autoinst/openQA/jobs/192442200

https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/commit/19e0f8316e176794c3c19900049fb7ab2f504cf0 - I found the bug. But there is a new problem: we need to make sure it only runs once, we now have 4 tests that run in parallel

just regard it as done. The "beautify" part should be part of the boy scout principle we follow.
