Python bindings for the Ironic API
==================================
This is a client for the OpenStack `Ironic
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/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 <http://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html>`_. The master
repository is on `git.openstack.org
<https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/python-ironicclient>`_.
``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_PROJECT_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>

available, run::
