Create OpenStack client environment scriptsThe previous section used a combination of environment variables and
command options to interact with the Identity service via the
openstack client. To increase efficiency of client
operations, OpenStack supports simple client environment scripts also
known as OpenRC files. These scripts typically contain common options for
all clients, but also support unique options. For more information, see the
OpenStack User Guide.To create the scriptsCreate client environment scripts for the admin
and demo projects and users. Future portions of this
guide reference these scripts to load appropriate credentials for client
operations.Edit the admin-openrc.sh file and add the
following content:export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID=default
export OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID=default
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=admin
export OS_TENANT_NAME=admin
export OS_USERNAME=admin
export OS_PASSWORD=ADMIN_PASS
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://controller:35357/v3Replace ADMIN_PASS with the password you chose
for the admin user in the Identity service.Edit the demo-openrc.sh file and add the
following content:export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID=default
export OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID=default
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=demo
export OS_TENANT_NAME=demo
export OS_USERNAME=demo
export OS_PASSWORD=DEMO_PASS
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://controller:5000/v3Replace DEMO_PASS with the password you chose
for the demo user in the Identity service.To load client environment scriptsTo run clients as a specific project and user, you can simply load
the associated client environment script prior to running them. For
example:Load the admin-openrc.sh file to populate
environment variables with the location of the Identity service
and the admin project and user credentials:$source admin-openrc.shRequest an authentication token:$openstack token issue+------------+----------------------------------+
