Python bindings to the OpenStack Network API
|
|
============================================
|
|
|
|
In order to use the python neutron client 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::
|
|
|
|
>>> import logging
|
|
>>> from neutronclient.neutron import client
|
|
>>> logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
|
|
>>> neutron = client.Client('2.0', endpoint_url=OS_URL, token=OS_TOKEN)
|
|
>>> neutron.format = 'json'
|
|
>>> network = {'name': 'mynetwork', 'admin_state_up': True}
|
|
>>> neutron.create_network({'network':network})
|
|
>>> networks = neutron.list_networks(name='mynetwork')
|
|
>>> print networks
|
|
>>> network_id = networks['networks'][0]['id']
|
|
>>> neutron.delete_network(network_id)
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, if you have a username and password, authentication is done
|
|
against the public endpoint. You must also specify a tenant that is associated
|
|
with the user::
|
|
|
|
>>> from neutronclient.v2_0 import client
|
|
>>> username='adminUser'
|
|
>>> password='secretword'
|
|
>>> tenant_name='openstackDemo'
|
|
>>> auth_url='http://192.168.206.130:5000/v2.0'
|
|
>>> neutron = client.Client(username=username, password=password,
|
|
... tenant_name=tenant_name, auth_url=auth_url)
|
|
>>>nets = neutron.list_networks()
|
|
|
|
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-name``, and ``--os-auth-url``) or set them in environment variables::
|
|
|
|
export OS_USERNAME=user
|
|
export OS_PASSWORD=pass
|
|
export OS_TENANT_NAME=tenant
|
|
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-url`` and ``--os-auth-token``. You can alternatively set these environment variables::
|
|
|
|
export OS_URL=http://neutron.example.org:9696/
|
|
export OS_TOKEN=3bcc3d3a03f44e3d8377f9247b0ad155
|
|
|
|
If neutron server does not require authentication, besides these two arguments or environment variables (We can use any value as token.), we need manually supply ``--os-auth-strategy`` or set the environment variable::
|
|
|
|
export OS_AUTH_STRATEGY=noauth
|
|
|
|
Once you've configured your authentication parameters, you can run ``neutron -h`` to see a complete listing of available commands.
