The Oslo libraries have moved all of their code out of the 'oslo' namespace package into per-library packages. The namespace package was retained during kilo for backwards compatibility, but will be removed by the liberty-2 milestone. This change removes the use of the namespace package, replacing it with the new package names. The patches in the libraries will be put on hold until application patches have landed, or L2, whichever comes first. At that point, new versions of the libraries without namespace packages will be released as a major version update. Please merge this patch, or an equivalent, before L2 to avoid problems with those library releases.

Python bindings to the OpenStack Manila API
This is a client for the OpenStack Manila API. There's a Python API
(the manilaclient module), and a command-line script
(manila). Each implements 100% of the OpenStack Manila
API.
See the OpenStack CLI
guide for information on how to use the manila
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 Github. Patches must be submitted using Gerrit, not Github pull requests.
This code is a fork of Cinderclient of Grizzly release and then it was developed separately. Cinderclient code is a fork of Jacobian's python-cloudservers If you need API support for the Rackspace API solely or the BSD license, you should use that repository. python-manilaclient is licensed under the Apache License like the rest of OpenStack.

Command-line API
Installing this package gets you a shell command,
manila, 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=foouser
export OS_PASSWORD=barpass
export OS_TENANT_NAME=fooprojectYou will also need to define the authentication url either with param
--os-auth-url or as an environment variable:
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://example.com:5000/v2.0/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
manila help, see manila help COMMAND for help
on a specific command.
Python API
There's also a complete Python API, but it has not yet been documented.
Quick-start using keystone:
# use v2.0 auth with http://example.com:5000/v2.0/")
>>> from manilaclient.v1 import client
>>> nt = client.Client(USER, PASS, TENANT, AUTH_URL, service_type="share")
>>> nt.shares.list()
