Apache DataFusion Java Documentation

May 13, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

This directory contains the Sphinx source for the Apache DataFusion Java documentation site.

Build

Building the docs requires Python 3.9 or newer and a working ./mvnw at the repo root (the build runs ./mvnw javadoc:javadoc to generate the API reference, which also needs JDK 17 and one-time network access to fetch upstream .proto files). A virtual environment under docs/venv/ is the recommended workflow.

cd docs
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
./build.sh

The generated site is written to docs/build/html/. Open docs/build/html/index.html in a browser to preview.

Subsequent builds need only:

cd docs
source venv/bin/activate
./build.sh

./build.sh runs sphinx-build with -W so warnings fail the build.
