Make py27 and py35 versions of the tips job, and a project-template to hold them so it's easy for other projects to use both (or more, we ever add them) The base tox job knows how to install siblings based on required-projects, which makes it easy to piggyback on them. Remove the irrelevant-files sections, as these are specified in the base openstack-tox jobs. Using the unit-tips or functional-tips tox env is no longer neccessary. For the gate it's actually important to not do the sibling processing by hand in tox as the base tox job version of the logic does all the right things to deal with constraints and whatnot. Leave them for local developer convenience. Leave the osc-tox-unit-tips job for now, since there are some other repos using it. Once we switch them to the template, we can remove the job.

OpenStackClient
OpenStackClient (aka OSC) is a command-line client for OpenStack that brings the command set for Compute, Identity, Image, Object Store and Block Storage APIs together in a single shell with a uniform command structure.
The primary goal is to provide a unified shell command structure and a common language to describe operations in OpenStack.
- PyPi - package installation

- Bugs - issue tracking

Getting Started
OpenStack Client can be installed from PyPI using pip:
pip install python-openstackclient
There are a few variants on getting help. A list of global options
and supported commands is shown with --help
:
openstack --help
There is also a help
command that can be used to get
help text for a specific command:
openstack help
openstack help server create
If you want to make changes to the OpenStackClient for testing and contribution, make any changes and then run:
python setup.py develop
or:
pip install -e .
Configuration
The CLI is configured via environment variables and command-line options as listed in https://docs.openstack.org/python-openstackclient/latest/cli/authentication.html.
Authentication using username/password is most commonly used:
export OS_AUTH_URL=<url-to-openstack-identity>
export OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=<project-name>
export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_NAME=<project-domain-name>
export OS_USERNAME=<username>
export OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME=<user-domain-name>
export OS_PASSWORD=<password> # (optional)
The corresponding command-line options look very similar:
--os-auth-url <url>
--os-identity-api-version 3
--os-project-name <project-name>
--os-project-domain-name <project-domain-name>
--os-username <username>
--os-user-domain-name <user-domain-name>
[--os-password <password>]
If a password is not provided above (in plaintext), you will be interactively prompted to provide one securely.
Authentication may also be performed using an already-acquired token and a URL pointing directly to the service API that presumably was acquired from the Service Catalog:
export OS_TOKEN=<token>
export OS_URL=<url-to-openstack-service>
The corresponding command-line options look very similar:
--os-token <token>
--os-url <url-to-openstack-service>
