Python bindings to the OpenStack Nova API
2011-01-25 14:01:22 -06:00
==================================================
This is a client for OpenStack Nova API. There's :doc:`a Python API
<api>` (the :mod:`novaclient` module), and a :doc:`command-line script
<shell>` (installed as :program:`nova`). Each implements the entire
OpenStack Nova API.

You'll need credentials for an OpenStack cloud that implements the
Compute API, such as TryStack, HP, or Rackspace, in order to use the nova client.

You may want to read the `OpenStack Compute Developer Guide`__ -- the overview, at
least -- to get an idea of the concepts. By understanding the concepts

this library should make more sense.
