PMIx Reference Library (OpenPMIx)

Official documentation

The OpenPMIx documentation can be viewed in the following ways:

1. Online at https://docs.openpmix.org/
2. In self-contained (i.e., suitable for local viewing, without an internet connection) in official distribution tarballs under https://github.com/openpmix/openpmix/releases.

Building the documentation locally

The source code for OpenPMIx's docs can be found in the OpenPMIx Git repository under the docs folder.

Developers who clone the OpenPMIx Git repository will not have the HTML documentation and man pages by default; it must be built. Instructions for how to build the OpenPMIx documentation can be found here: https://docs.openpmix.org/en/latest/developers/prerequisites.html#sphinx-and-therefore-python.
