This will allow to trigger profiling of various services that allow it currently and which APIs support is added to openstackclient. Cinder and Glance have osprofiler support already, Nova and Keystone are in progress. To use this functionality osprofiler (and its storage backend) needs to be installed in the environment. If so, you will be able to trigger profiling via the following command, for example: $ openstack --profile SECRET_KEY user list At the end of output there will be message with <trace_id>, and to plot nice HTML graphs the following command should be used: $ osprofiler trace show <trace_id> --html --out result.html Related Keystone change: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/103368/ Related Nova change: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/254703/ The similar change to the keystoneclient (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/255308/) was abandoned as new CLI extenstions are not more accepted to python-keystoneclient.

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.

Getting Started
OpenStack Client can be installed from PyPI using pip:
pip install python-openstackclientThere are a few variants on getting help. A list of global options
and supported commands is shown with --help:
openstack --helpThere is also a help command that can be used to get
help text for a specific command:
openstack help
openstack help server createConfiguration
The CLI is configured via environment variables and command-line options as listed in http://docs.openstack.org/developer/python-openstackclient/authentication.html.
Authentication using username/password is most commonly used:
export OS_AUTH_URL=<url-to-openstack-identity>
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=<project-name>
export OS_USERNAME=<username>
export OS_PASSWORD=<password> # (optional)The corresponding command-line options look very similar:
--os-auth-url <url>
--os-project-name <project-name>
--os-username <username>
[--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>
