Jim Rollenhagen b1dfb53ba1 Switch tox unit test command to use ostestr
Blatantly plagiarized from I1acc2deadc01421baec256352b35a646676445e5

This commit switches the tox command to use ostestr instead of calling
testr through setup.py. The primary advantage here is that it uses the
subunit-trace output filter. ostestr primarily exists as a replacement
for pretty_tox.sh bash scripts which spread like a plague through
OpenStack projects after Nova copied it from Tempest. (although ostestr
also provides some other useful features) Granted ironic wasn't using
that, but this commit makes the switch to enable getting the
subunit-trace output which is generally useful.

Note that this dramatically increases output while running tests.
However, test failures are still at the bottom of the output, so it
shouldn't cause much pain, if any.

Python bindings for the Ironic API

This is a client for the OpenStack Ironic API. It provides a Python API (the ironicclient module) and a command-line interface (ironic).

Development takes place via the usual OpenStack processes as outlined in the developer guide. The master repository is on git.openstack.org.

python-ironicclient is licensed under the Apache License like the rest of OpenStack.

Python API

Quick-start Example::

>>> from ironicclient import client >>> >>> kwargs = {'os_auth_token': '3bcc3d3a03f44e3d8377f9247b0ad155' >>> 'ironic_url': 'http://ironic.example.org:6385/'} >>> ironic = client.get_client(1, **kwargs)

Command-line API

This package will install the ironic command line interface that you can use to interact with the ironic API.

In order to use the ironic CLI you'll need to provide your OpenStack tenant, username, password and authentication endpoint. You can do this with the --os-tenant-name, --os-username, --os-password and --os-auth-url parameters, though it may be easier to set them as environment variables:

export OS_TENANT_NAME=project
export OS_USERNAME=user
export OS_PASSWORD=pass
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://auth.example.com:5000/v2.0

To use a specific Ironic API endpoint:

export IRONIC_URL=http://ironic.example.com:6385

An example of how to create a basic node with the pxe_ipmitool driver:

ironic node-create -d pxe_ipmitool

An example of creating a port on a node:

ironic port-create -a AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF -n nodeUUID

An example of updating driver properties for a node:

ironic node-update nodeUUID add driver_info/ipmi_address=<IPaddress>
ironic node-update nodeUUID add driver_info/ipmi_username=<username>
ironic node-update nodeUUID add driver_info/ipmi_password=<password>
