Andreas Jaeger 6e0c821b4d Update api-ref location
The api documentation is now published on docs.openstack.org instead
of developer.openstack.org. Update all links that are changed to the
new location.

Note that redirects will be set up as well but let's point now to the
new location.

python-cyborgclient is a python bindings to the OpenStack Cyborg API. There's
a Python API (the ``cyborgclient`` module), and a command-line script
(``cyborg``). Each implements 100% of the OpenStack Cyborg API.
See the `OpenStack CLI Reference`_ for information on how to use the ``cyborg``
command-line tool. You may also want to look at the
`OpenStack API documentation`_.

The project is hosted on `Launchpad`_, where bugs can be filed. The code is
hosted on `OpenStack`_. Patches must be submitted using `Gerrit`_.

Command-line API
----------------
Installing this package gets you a shell command, ``cyborg``, that you
can use to interact with any Rackspace compatible API (including OpenStack).
You'll need to provide your OpenStack username and password. You can do this
with the ``--os-username``, ``--os-password`` and ``--os-tenant-name``
params, but it's easier to just set them as environment variables::
export OS_USERNAME=openstack
export OS_PASSWORD=yadayada
export OS_TENANT_NAME=myproject
You will also need to define the authentication url with ``--os-auth-url``
and the version of the API with ``--os-accelerator-api-version``. Or set them
as environment variables as well, ``OS_ACCELERATOR_API_VERSION=1``. If you
are using Keystone, you need to set the ``OS_AUTH_URL`` to the keystone
endpoint::
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://controller:5000/v3
export OS_ACCELERATOR_API_VERSION=1
Since Keystone can return multiple regions in the Service Catalog, you
can specify the one you want with ``--os-region-name`` (or
``export OS_REGION_NAME``). It defaults to the first in the list returned.
You'll find complete documentation on the shell by running
``cyborg help``
Python API
----------
There's also a complete Python API, but it has not yet been documented.
Quick-start using keystone::
# pass auth plugin and session to Client init.
# service_parameters contains servive_name, service_type, interface and
# region name.
>>> from cyborgclient.v1 import client
>>> nt = client.Client(auth=auth,session=_SESSION,**service_parameters)
>>> nt.accelerators.list()
