The patch fix the following issues: 1. ValueError is raised if input don't contain "=". Sometimes the whole "server create" command is very complex, it's difficult to find out root reason directly. 2. Don't support to add block device from snapshot, like: --block-device-mapping vdb=0c8ae9d8-cadc-4a23-8337-4254614d277e:snapshot:1, it's supported by novaclient, but not in osc. 3. If input "vdb=", not add any mapping information, the server will be launched successfully, not raise error message to let use add volume/snapshot id, just ignore "--block-device-mapping" option. 4. The help message of "block-device-mapping" option is so simple, need to add some details about how to add <type>, <delete_on_terminate> contains.

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 createIf you want to make changes to the OpenStackClient for testing and contribution, make any changes and then run:
python setup.py developor:
pip install -e .Configuration
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>
