OpenStack Theme Creation for RDO (PackStack and OOO )

This process has been tested on Ocata, Pike (OOO) and Rocky (PackStack)

Manual Steps

Backup your data

Make sure you backup your data before you make any changes

Directory

cd to /usr/share/openstack-dashboard/openstack_dashboard/themes and create a new folder for your new theme.

mkdir remo
cd remo
echo ""@import "/themes/default/variables";" > _variables.scss
echo ""@import "/themes/default/styles";" >   _styles.scss

mkdir img

Create New logo

Create a new login logo and a top logo in the format of .svg Use the following URL if you have a PNG to convert it to svg

https://www.aconvert.com/image/jpg-to-svg/

I use the link above and works very well

Logo

Save the login logo as

logo-splash.svg

Save the top logo as

logo.svg

Update the local_settings

Edit the /etc/openstack-dashboard/local_settings

Add the followings:

 DEFAULT_THEME = 'Juve'
          AVAILABLE_THEMES = [
          ('default', 'Default', 'themes/default'),
          ('material', 'Material', 'themes/material'),
          ('Juve', 'Juventus', 'themes/juventus'),
           ]
          SITE_BRANDING = 'Juventus, Inc. Cloud'

Restart httpd

systemctl restart httpd

Using Ansible Playbook

Playbook to add theme, remove volume creation by default and add Site title

          ('Juve', 'Juventus', 'themes/juventus'),
           ]

          LAUNCH_INSTANCE_DEFAULTS = {

           }
          SITE_BRANDING = 'Juventus FC'

      replace:

Ansible Use

If you want to use the ansible script you need to change the imags from the img folder and make sure you have the info into the _variables.scss. There are a few tags if you want to check it before you push them up you can alawys do that with

Playbook usage

ansible-playbook -i hosts remo-theme-os-local.yaml -C --diff
