Python API ========== In order to use the python api directly, you must first obtain an auth token and identify which endpoint you wish to speak to. Once you have done so, you can use the API like so:: >>> from cinderclient import client >>> cinder = client.Client('1', $OS_USER_NAME, $OS_PASSWORD, $OS_TENANT_NAME, $OS_AUTH_URL) >>> cinder.volumes.list() [] >>> myvol = cinder.volumes.create(display_name="test-vol", size=1) >>> myvol.id ce06d0a8-5c1b-4e2c-81d2-39eca6bbfb70 >>> cinder.volumes.list() [] >>>myvol.delete Alternatively, you can create a client instance using the keystoneauth session API:: >>> from keystoneauth1 import loading >>> from keystoneauth1 import session >>> from cinderclient import client >>> loader = loading.get_plugin_loader('password') >>> auth = loader.load_from_options(auth_url=AUTH_URL, ... username=USERNAME, ... password=PASSWORD, ... project_id=PROJECT_ID) >>> sess = session.Session(auth=auth) >>> cinder = client.Client(VERSION, session=sess) >>> cinder.volumes.list() [] Command-line Tool ================= In order to use the CLI, you must provide your OpenStack username, password, tenant, and auth endpoint. Use the corresponding configuration options (``--os-username``, ``--os-password``, ``--os-tenant-id``, and ``--os-auth-url``) or set them in environment variables:: export OS_USERNAME=user export OS_PASSWORD=pass export OS_TENANT_ID=b363706f891f48019483f8bd6503c54b export OS_AUTH_URL=http://auth.example.com:5000/v2.0 Once you've configured your authentication parameters, you can run ``cinder help`` to see a complete listing of available commands. See also :doc:`/man/cinder`.
