A documented shell script to build complete OpenStack development environments.
from Rackspace Cloud Builders.
git clone https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack.git
cd devstack && ./stack.sh
In order to correctly install all the dependencies, we assume a specific version of Ubuntu to make it as easy as possible. OpenStack works on other flavors of Linux (and some folks even run it on Windows!) We recommend using a minimal install of Ubuntu server in a VM if this is your first time.
git clone git://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack.git
The devstack repo contains a script that installs openstack and templates for configuration files
cd devstack; ./stack.sh
It takes a few minutes, we recommend reading the script while it is building.
