Usage

First create a client instance with your credentials:

>>> from novaclient.client import Client
>>> nova = Client(VERSION, USERNAME, PASSWORD, PROJECT_ID, AUTH_URL)

Here VERSION can be: 1.1, 2 and 3.

Then call methods on its managers:

>>> nova.servers.list()
[<Server: buildslave-ubuntu-9.10>]

>>> nova.flavors.list()
[<Flavor: 256 server>,
 <Flavor: 512 server>,
 <Flavor: 1GB server>,
 <Flavor: 2GB server>,
 <Flavor: 4GB server>,
 <Flavor: 8GB server>,
 <Flavor: 15.5GB server>]

>>> fl = nova.flavors.find(ram=512)
>>> nova.servers.create("my-server", flavor=fl)
<Server: my-server>
