User should be able to specify the endpoint type through a CLI optional argument/ENV variable setting. We will name this new optional argument: --os-endpoint-type (Env: OS_ENDPOINT_TYPE) and based on the value given, the service API will use that specific endpoint type. Possible values: public, admin, internal. DocImpact Closes-Bug: #1454392 Change-Id: Ife3d4e46b44c0ddcd712b1130e27e362545a9a29

Configuration
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
OpenStackClient is primarily configured using command line options and environment
|
|
variables. Most of those settings can also be placed into a configuration file to
|
|
simplify managing multiple cloud configurations.
|
|
|
|
There is a relationship between the global options, environment variables and
|
|
keywords used in the configuration files that should make translation between
|
|
these three areas simple.
|
|
|
|
Most global options have a corresponding environment variable that may also be
|
|
used to set the value. If both are present, the command-line option takes priority.
|
|
The environment variable names are derived from the option name by dropping the
|
|
leading dashes (--), converting each embedded dash (-) to an underscore (_), and
|
|
converting to upper case.
|
|
|
|
The keyword names in the configurations files are derived from the global option
|
|
names by dropping the ``--os-`` prefix if present.
|
|
|
|
Global Options
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
The :doc:`openstack manpage <man/openstack>` lists all of the global
|
|
options recognized by OpenStackClient and the default authentication plugins.
|
|
|
|
Environment Variables
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
The :doc:`openstack manpage <man/openstack>` also lists all of the
|
|
environment variables recognized by OpenStackClient and the default
|
|
authentication plugins.
|
|
|
|
Configuration Files
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
clouds.yaml
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
:file:`clouds.yaml` is a configuration file that contains everything needed
|
|
to connect to one or more clouds. It may contain private information and
|
|
is generally considered private to a user.
|
|
|
|
OpenStackClient looks for a file called :file:`clouds.yaml` in the following
|
|
locations:
|
|
|
|
* current directory
|
|
* :file:`~/.config/openstack`
|
|
* :file:`/etc/openstack`
|
|
|
|
The first file found wins.
|
|
|
|
The keys match the :program:`openstack` global options but without the
|
|
``--os-`` prefix.

|
|

|
|
|
|
In the above example, the ``auth_url`` for the ``rackspace`` cloud is taken
|
|
from :file:`clouds-public.yaml` (see below).
|
|
|
|
The first two entries are for two of the default users of the same DevStack
|
|
cloud.
|
|
|
|
The third entry is for a Rackspace Cloud Servers account. It is equivalent
|
|
to the following options if the ``rackspace`` entry in :file:`clouds-public.yaml`
|
|
(below) is present:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
--os-auth-url https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com/v2.0/
|
|
--os-project-id 275610
|
|
--os-username openstack
|
|
--os-password xyzpdq!lazydog
|
|
--os-region-name DFW
|
|
--os-endpoint-type internal
|
|
|
|
and can be selected on the command line::
|
|
|
|
openstack --os-cloud infra server list
|
|
|
|
Note that multiple regions are listed in the ``rackspace`` entry. An otherwise
|
|
identical configuration is created for each region. If ``-os-region-name`` is not
|
|
specified on the command line, the first region in the list is used by default.
|
|
|
|
The selection of ``endpoint_type`` (as seen above in the ``rackspace`` entry)
|
|
is optional. For this configuration to work, every service for this cloud
|
|
instance must already be configured to support this type of endpoint.
|
|
|
|
clouds-public.yaml
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
:file:`clouds-public.yaml` is a configuration file that is intended to contain
|
|
public information about clouds that are common across a large number of users.
|
|
The idea is that :file:`clouds-public.yaml` could easily be shared among users
|
|
to simplify public cloud configuration.
|
|
|
|
Similar to :file:`clouds.yaml`, OpenStackClient looks for
|
|
:file:`clouds-public.yaml` in the following locations:
|
|
|
|
* current directory
|
|
* :file:`~/.config/openstack`
|
|
* :file:`/etc/openstack`
|
|
|
|
The first file found wins.
|
|
|

The keys here are referenced in :file:`clouds.yaml` ``cloud`` keys. Anything
