Open edX Proposals Index

OEP (pronounced “oh-epp”) stands for Open edX (Enhancement) Proposal. An OEP is a document that details a specific technology decision being made by the Open edX community, in the form of a best practice, architecture design, or process adjustment. An OEP should provide the use cases and rationales that surround that choice. OEPs are not the only way for a change to be made to Open edX, however, the goal is to create a collection of OEP documents as a repository or knowledge archive of large and broadly relevant choices made for the platform.

Testing locally

To test locally in a Python virtual env, you will first need to install GraphViz On a Mac, this can be done via brew install graphviz; on Ubuntu, use sudo apt install graphviz; on Red Hat variants use sudo dnf install graphviz. Next run the following commands:

pip install sphinx  # it may fail for non-obvious reasons without this
make requirements

make html

Common Warnings

Document isn't Included in any toctree

If you have some documents that you only reference via :doc: or :ref: tags you may get this error. If there is no table of contents that the files obviously belong in, an easy way to fix this error is to put the documents in a hidden toctree near where they are referenced:

.. toctree::
    :hidden:

    path/to/referenced-file.rst
