Colleen Murphy 5203cc9707 Remove auth_with_unscoped_saml decorator
The auth_with_unscoped_saml decorator existed to make sure the user
selected the right auth plugin before trying to call either a
'federation domain' or 'federation project' command. This is outdated,
because openstackclient now uses keystoneauth[1] and keystoneauth
removed its entrypoints for the federation plugins[2] since its
_Rescoped class no longer needs them. This patch removes the decorator
since that validation check was the only thing standing in the way of
the commands working correctly. Also removed the '*_list_wrong_auth'
tests since those only existed to test the decorator, and stopped
setting the plugin in the positive tests since the
automatically-determined token plugin should now be fine.

OpenStackClient

Latest Version

Downloads

OpenStackClient (aka OSC) is a command-line client for OpenStack that brings the command set for Compute, Identity, Image, Object Store and Block Storage APIs together in a single shell with a uniform command structure.

The primary goal is to provide a unified shell command structure and a common language to describe operations in OpenStack.

Getting Started

OpenStack Client can be installed from PyPI using pip:

pip install python-openstackclient

There are a few variants on getting help. A list of global options and supported commands is shown with --help:

openstack --help

There is also a help command that can be used to get help text for a specific command:

openstack help
openstack help server create

If you want to make changes to the OpenStackClient for testing and contribution, make any changes and then run:

python setup.py develop

or:

pip install -e .

Configuration

The CLI is configured via environment variables and command-line options as listed in http://docs.openstack.org/developer/python-openstackclient/authentication.html.

Authentication using username/password is most commonly used:

export OS_AUTH_URL=<url-to-openstack-identity>
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=<project-name>
export OS_USERNAME=<username>
export OS_PASSWORD=<password>  # (optional)

The corresponding command-line options look very similar:

--os-auth-url <url>
--os-project-name <project-name>
--os-username <username>
[--os-password <password>]

If a password is not provided above (in plaintext), you will be interactively prompted to provide one securely.

Authentication may also be performed using an already-acquired token and a URL pointing directly to the service API that presumably was acquired from the Service Catalog:

export OS_TOKEN=<token>
export OS_URL=<url-to-openstack-service>

The corresponding command-line options look very similar:

--os-token <token>
--os-url <url-to-openstack-service>
