John Griffith ea7a9820fd Add attach/detach doc to index
Doesn't do much good to add a doc if you never add it
to the index and remove spurious headers that cause it
to not publish.

This patch fixes those problems.

Building the docs

Dependencies

Sphinx

You'll need sphinx (the python one) and if you are using the virtualenv you'll need to install it in the virtualenv specifically so that it can load the cinder modules.

pip install Sphinx
Graphviz

Some of the diagrams are generated using the dot language from Graphviz.

sudo apt-get install graphviz

Use make

Just type make:

% make

Look in the Makefile for more targets.

Manually

  1. Generate the code.rst file so that Sphinx will pull in our docstrings:

    % ./generate_autodoc_index.sh > source/code.rst
  2. Run `sphinx_build`:

    % sphinx-build -b html source build/html

Use tox

The easiest way to build the docs and avoid dealing with all dependencies is to let tox prepare a virtualenv and run the build_sphinx target inside the virtualenv:

% cd ..
% tox -e docs

The docs have been built

Check out the build directory to find them. Yay!
