Python Bindings for the OpenStack Images API
============================================
This is a client for the OpenStack Images API. There's :doc:`a Python API <ref/index>` (the :mod:`glanceclient` module) and a :doc:`command-line script<man/glance>` (installed as :program:`glance`).
Python API
----------
In order to use the python api directly, you must first obtain an auth token and identify which endpoint you wish to speak to. Once you have done so, you can use the API like so::
>>> from glanceclient import Client
>>> glance = Client('1', endpoint=OS_IMAGE_ENDPOINT, token=OS_AUTH_TOKEN)
>>> image = glance.images.create(name="My Test Image")
>>> print image.status
'queued'
>>> image.update(data=open('/tmp/myimage.iso', 'rb'))
>>> print image.status
'active'
>>> image.update(properties=dict(my_custom_property='value'))
>>> with open('/tmp/copyimage.iso', 'wb') as f:
for chunk in image.data:
f.write(chunk)
>>> image.delete()

Command-line Tool
-----------------
In order to use the CLI, you must provide your OpenStack username, password, tenant, and auth endpoint. Use the corresponding configuration options (``--os-username``, ``--os-password``, ``--os-tenant-id``, and ``--os-auth-url``) or set them in environment variables::
export OS_USERNAME=user
export OS_PASSWORD=pass
export OS_TENANT_ID=b363706f891f48019483f8bd6503c54b
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://auth.example.com:5000/v2.0
The command line tool will attempt to reauthenticate using your provided credentials for every request. You can override this behavior by manually supplying an auth token using ``--os-image-url`` and ``--os-auth-token``. You can alternatively set these environment variables::
export OS_IMAGE_URL=http://glance.example.org:9292/
export OS_AUTH_TOKEN=3bcc3d3a03f44e3d8377f9247b0ad155
Once you've configured your authentication parameters, you can run ``glance help`` to see a complete listing of available commands.
See also :doc:`/man/glance`.

0.16.0
------
* Add --limit option to the v2 list operation. This allows a user to limit the
number of images requested from the glance server. Previously the client
would always go through the entire list of images
* The CLI exit code on keyboard interrupt is now ``130``, changed from ``1``.
* 1370283_: The set of supported SSL ciphers is now reduced to a smaller and more secure subset
* 1384664_, 1402746_: Fix enabling the progress bar on download and upload when
image data is piped into the client causing the client to crash
* 1415935_: NoneType header values are now ignored when encoding headers
* 1341777_: Requests which are streamed are now explicitly closed when the end
of the stream has been reached
* 1394236_: The CLI is now strict about what it counts as a boolean, and exits
with an error if a non-boolean value is used as input to a boolean option
* 1401197_: The CLI is now strict about valid inputs to ``--os-image-api-version``
* 1333119_: The CLI now raises a more useful error message when a user requests the deletion of an image which is already deleted
* 1384759_: Fix client erroring if ``--os-tenant-id`` and ``--os-tenant-name``
are not defined
* 1228744_: Add globoff option to debug curl statements. This allows it to work with IPv6 addresses

0.15.0
------
* Stop requiring a version to create a Client instance. The ``version`` argument is
now a keyword. If no ``version`` is specified and a versioned endpoint is
supplied, glanceclient will use the endpoint's version. If the endpoint is
unversioned and a value for ``version`` is not supplied, glanceclient falls
back to v1. This change is backwards-compatible. Examples::
>>> glanceclient.Client(version=1, endpoint='http://localhost:9292') # returns a v1 client
>>> glanceclient.Client(endpoint='http://localhost:9292/v2') # returns a v2 client
>>> glanceclient.Client(endpoint='http://localhost:9292') # returns a v1 client
>>> glanceclient.Client(2, 'http://localhost:9292/v2') # old behavior is preserved
* Add bash completion to glance client. The new bash completion files are stored in ``tools/glance.bash_completion``
* Add tty password entry. This prompts for a password if neither ``--os-password`` nor ``OS_PASSWORD`` have been set
* Add the ``--property-filter`` option from the v1 client to v2 image-list. This allows you to do something similar to::
$ glance --os-image-api-version 2 image-list --property-filter os_distro=NixOS
* 1324067_: Allow --file flag in v2 image-create. This selects a local disk image to upload during the creation of the image
* 1395841_: Output a useful error on an invalid ``--os-image-api-version`` argument
* 1394965_: Add ``identity_headers`` back into the request headers
* 1350802_: Remove read only options from v2 shell commands. The options omitted are
- ``created_at``
- ``updated_at``
- ``file``
- ``checksum``
- ``virtual_size``
- ``size``
- ``status``
- ``schema``
- ``direct_url``
* 1381295_: Stop setting X-Auth-Token key in http session header if there is no token provided
* 1378844_: Fix ``--public`` being ignored on image-create
* 1367782_: Fix to ensure ``endpoint_type`` is used by ``_get_endpoint()``
* 1381816_: Support Pagination for namespace list
* 1401032_: Add support for enum types in the schema that accept ``None``
