Using Mistral with OpenStack
============================
The **mistral** shell utility interacts with OpenStack Mistral API from the
command-line. It supports the features in the OpenStack Mistral API.
Basic Usage
-----------
In order to use the CLI, you must provide your OpenStack credentials
(for both user and project), and auth endpoint. Use the corresponding
configuration options (``--os-username``, ``--os-password``,
``--os-project-name``, ``--os-user-domain-id``, ``os-project-domain-id``, and
``--os-auth-url``), but it is easier to set them in environment variables.
.. code-block:: shell
$ export OS_AUTH_URL=http://<Keystone_host>:5000/v2.0
$ export OS_USERNAME=admin
$ export OS_TENANT_NAME=tenant
$ export OS_PASSWORD=secret
$ export OS_MISTRAL_URL=http://<Mistral host>:8989/v2
When authenticating against keystone over https:
.. code-block:: shell
$ export OS_CACERT=<path_to_ca_cert>
Once you've configured your authentication parameters, you can run **mistral**
commands. All commands take the form of::
mistral <command> [arguments...]
Run **mistral --help** to get a full list of all possible commands, and run
**mistral help <command>** to get detailed help for that command.

Using Mistral without Authentication
====================================
It is possible to execute a workflow on any arbitrary cloud without additional
configuration on the Mistral server side. If authentication is turned off in
the Mistral server (Pecan's `auth_enable = False` option in `mistral.conf`),
there is no need to set the `keystone_authtoken` section. It is possible to
have Mistral use an external OpenStack cloud even when it isn't deployed in
an OpenStack environment (i.e. no Keystone integration).
This setup is particularly useful when Mistral is used in standalone mode,
where the Mistral service is not part of the OpenStack cloud and runs
separately.
To enable this operation, the user can use ``--os-target-username``,
``--os-target-password``, ``--os-target-tenant-id``,
``--os-target-tenant-name``, ``--os-target-auth-token``,
``--os-target-auth-url``, ``--os-target_cacert``, and
``--os-target-region-name`` parameters.
For example, the user can return the heat stack list with this setup as shown
below:
.. code-block:: shell
$ mistral \
--os-target-auth-url=http://keystone2.example.com:5000/v3 \
--os-target-username=testuser \
--os-target-tenant=testtenant \
--os-target-password="MistralRuleZ" \
--os-mistral-url=http://mistral.example.com:8989/v2 \
run-action heat.stacks_list
The OS-TARGET-* parameters can be set in environment variables as:
.. code-block:: shell
$ export OS_TARGET_AUTH_URL=http://keystone2.example.com:5000/v3
$ export OS_TARGET_USERNAME=admin
$ export OS_TARGET_TENANT_NAME=tenant
$ export OS_TARGET_PASSWORD=secret
$ export OS_TARGET_REGION_NAME=region
