This is a client for OpenStack Nova API. There's :doc:`a Python API
|
2017-07-04 11:06:56 +01:00
|
|
|
<reference/api/index>` (the :mod:`novaclient` module), and a :doc:`command-line
|
|
|
|
script </user/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.
