Description
===========

The OpenStack Client plugin interacts with the Bare Metal service
through the ``openstack baremetal`` command line interface (CLI).

To use ``openstack`` CLI, the OpenStackClient should be installed::

    # pip install python-openstackclient

To use the CLI, you must provide your OpenStack username, password,
project, and auth endpoint. You can use configuration options
:option:`--os-username`, :option:`--os-password`, :option:`--os-project-id`
(or :option:`--os-project-name`), and :option:`--os-auth-url`,
or set the corresponding environment variables::

    $ export OS_USERNAME=user
    $ export OS_PASSWORD=password
    $ export OS_PROJECT_NAME=project                         # or OS_PROJECT_ID
    $ export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID=default
    $ export OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID=default
    $ export OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3
    $ export OS_AUTH_URL=http://auth.example.com:5000/identity

This CLI is provided by python-openstackclient and osc-lib projects:
