Replace guts with openstack.config
The code has been moved into openstacksdk. Make os-client-config a
thin wrapper around that code.

The legacy client code needs to stay, as it was removed in openstacksdk.

We also have to plumb os_client_config.defaults and
os_client_config.cloud_region.CloudRegion in so that users get the
os-client-config versions from the openstacksdk methods that return the
relevant objects.

Support for per-service region_name has been dropped. This was never
used anywhere and was added for compatibility with openstacksdk Profile
objects. Since Profile objects are no more, we can remove it. It never
made any sense.

Warning

os-client-config has been superceded by openstacksdk. While os-client-config will continue to exist, it is highly recommended that users transition to using openstacksdk directly.

os-client-config is a library for collecting client configuration for using an OpenStack cloud in a consistent and comprehensive manner. It will find cloud config for as few as 1 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
