openstacksdk
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
openstacksdk is a client library for building applications to work
|
|
with OpenStack clouds. The project aims to provide a consistent and
|
|
complete set of interactions with OpenStack's many services, along with
|
|
complete documentation, examples, and tools.
|
|
|
|
It also contains an abstraction interface layer. Clouds can do many things, but
|
|
there are probably only about 10 of them that most people care about with any
|
|
regularity. If you want to do complicated things, the per-service oriented
|
|
portions of the SDK are for you. However, if what you want is to be able to
|
|
write an application that talks to any OpenStack cloud regardless of
|
|
configuration, then the Cloud Abstraction layer is for you.
|
|

|
|
|
|
Getting started
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
openstacksdk aims to talk to any OpenStack cloud. To do this, it requires a
|
|
configuration file. openstacksdk favours ``clouds.yaml`` files, but can also
|
|
use environment variables. The ``clouds.yaml`` file should be provided by your
|
|
cloud provider or deployment tooling. An example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
clouds:
|
|
mordred:
|
|
region_name: Dallas
|
|
auth:
|
|
username: 'mordred'
|
|
password: XXXXXXX
|
|
project_name: 'demo'
|
|
auth_url: 'https://identity.example.com'
|
|
|
|
openstacksdk will look for ``clouds.yaml`` files in the following locations:
|
|
|
|
* ``.`` (the current directory)
|
|
* ``$HOME/.config/openstack``
|
|
* ``/etc/openstack``
|
|
|
|
openstacksdk consists of three layers. Most users will make use of the *proxy*
|
|
layer. Using the above ``clouds.yaml``, consider listing servers:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
import openstack
|
|
|
|
# Initialize and turn on debug logging
|
|
openstack.enable_logging(debug=True)
|
|
|
|
# Initialize connection
|
|
conn = openstack.connect(cloud='mordred')
|
|
|
|
# List the servers
|
|
for server in conn.compute.servers():
|
|
print(server.to_dict())
|
|
|
|
openstacksdk also contains a higher-level *cloud* layer based on logical
|
|
operations:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
import openstack
|
|
|
|
# Initialize and turn on debug logging
|
|
openstack.enable_logging(debug=True)
|
|
|
|
# Initialize connection
|
|
conn = openstack.connect(cloud='mordred')
|
|
|
|
# List the servers
|
|
for server in conn.list_servers():
|
|
print(server.to_dict())
|
|
|
|
The benefit of this layer is mostly seen in more complicated operations that
|
|
take multiple steps and where the steps vary across providers. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
import openstack
|
|
|
|
# Initialize and turn on debug logging
|
|
openstack.enable_logging(debug=True)
|
|
|
|
# Initialize connection
|
|
conn = openstack.connect(cloud='mordred')
|
|
|
|
# Upload an image to the cloud
|
|
image = conn.create_image(
|
|
'ubuntu-trusty', filename='ubuntu-trusty.qcow2', wait=True)
|
|
|
|
# Find a flavor with at least 512M of RAM
|
|
flavor = conn.get_flavor_by_ram(512)
|
|
|
|
# Boot a server, wait for it to boot, and then do whatever is needed
|
|
# to get a public IP address for it.
|
|
conn.create_server(
|
|
'my-server', image=image, flavor=flavor, wait=True, auto_ip=True)
|
|
|
|
Finally, there is the low-level *resource* layer. This provides support for the
|
|
basic CRUD operations supported by REST APIs and is the base building block for
|
|
the other layers. You typically will not need to use this directly:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
import openstack
|
|
import openstack.config.loader
|
|
import openstack.compute.v2.server
|
|
|
|
# Initialize and turn on debug logging
|
|
openstack.enable_logging(debug=True)
|
|
|
|
# Initialize connection
|
|
conn = openstack.connect(cloud='mordred')
|
|
|
|
# List the servers
|
|
for server in openstack.compute.v2.server.Server.list(session=conn.compute):
|
|
print(server.to_dict())
|
|
|
|
.. _openstack.config:
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
openstacksdk uses the ``openstack.config`` module to parse configuration.
|
|
``openstack.config`` will find cloud configuration for as few as one cloud and
|
|
as many as you want to put in a config file. It will read environment variables
|
|
and config files, and it also contains some vendor specific default values so
|
|
that you don't have to know extra info to use OpenStack
|
|
|
|
* If you have a config file, you will get the clouds listed in it
|
|
* If you have environment variables, you will get a cloud named `envvars`
|
|
* If you have neither, you will get a cloud named `defaults` with base defaults
|
|
|
|
You can view the configuration identified by openstacksdk in your current
|
|
environment by running ``openstack.config.loader``. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ python -m openstack.config.loader
|
|
