The developer documentation has been updated to include an optional command specs process. This process may be used to work out the specifications for new commands, objects and actions before their implementation. This new process could assist in the implementation of additional neutron support in OSC. Change-Id: I62f7472435a9caacee0d1b4c8d35417c123b5a44

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

Project Goals
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
* Use the OpenStack Python API libraries, extending or replacing them as required
|
|
* Use a consistent naming and structure for commands and arguments
|
|
* Provide consistent output formats with optional machine parseable formats
|
|
* Use a single-binary approach that also contains an embedded shell that can execute
|
|
multiple commands on a single authentication (see libvirt's virsh for an example)
|
|
* Independence from the OpenStack project names; only API names are referenced (to
|
|
the extent possible)

============
|
|
|
|
OpenStackClient utilizes all of the usual OpenStack processes and requirements for
|
|
contributions. The code is hosted `on OpenStack's Git server`_. `Bug reports`_
|
|
and `blueprints`_ may be submitted to the :code:`python-openstackclient` project
|
|
on `Launchpad`_. Code may be submitted to the
|
|
:code:`openstack/python-openstackclient` project using `Gerrit`_.
|
|
Developers may also be found in the `IRC channel`_ ``#openstack-sdks``.
