===============================================
:program:`watcher` Command-Line Interface (CLI)
===============================================
.. program:: watcher
.. highlight:: bash
SYNOPSIS
========
:program:`watcher` [options] <command> [command-options]
:program:`watcher help`
:program:`watcher help` <command>
DESCRIPTION
===========
The :program:`watcher` command-line interface (CLI) interacts with the
OpenStack infra-optim Service (Watcher).
In order to use the CLI, you must provide your OpenStack username, password,
project (historically called tenant), and auth endpoint. You can use
configuration options :option:``--os-username``, :option:``--os-password``,
:option:``--os-tenant-id`` (or :option:``--os-tenant-name``),
and :option:``--os-auth-url``, or set the corresponding
environment variables::
$ export OS_USERNAME=user
$ export OS_PASSWORD=password
$ export OS_TENANT_ID=b363706f891f48019483f8bd6503c54b # or OS_TENANT_NAME
$ export OS_TENANT_NAME=project # or OS_TENANT_ID
$ export OS_AUTH_URL=http://auth.example.com:5000/v2.0
The command-line tool will attempt to reauthenticate using the provided
credentials for every request. You can override this behavior by manually
supplying an auth token using :option:``--watcher-url`` and
:option:``--os-auth-token``, or by setting the corresponding environment variables::
$ export WATCHER_URL=http://watcher.example.org:9322/
$ export OS_AUTH_TOKEN=3bcc3d3a03f44e3d8377f9247b0ad155
Since Keystone can return multiple regions in the Service Catalog, you can
specify the one you want with :option:``--os-region-name`` or set the following
environment variable. (It defaults to the first in the list returned.)
::
$ export OS_REGION_NAME=region
Watcher CLI supports bash completion. The command-line tool can automatically
fill partially typed commands. To use this feature, source the below file
(available at
https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/python-watcherclient/tree/tools/watcher.bash_completion)
to your terminal and then bash completion should work::
$ source watcher.bash_completion
To avoid doing this every time, add this to your ``.bashrc`` or copy the
watcher.bash_completion file to the default bash completion scripts directory
on your linux distribution.
