This is a client for the OpenStack Keystone API. There's a Python API (the keystoneclient module), and a command-line script (keystone). The Keystone 2.0 API is still a moving target, so this module will remain in "Beta" status until the API is finalized and fully implemented.
Development takes place on GitHub. Bug reports and patches may be filed there.
This code a fork of Rackspace's python-novaclient which is in turn a fork of Jacobian's python-cloudservers. The python-keystoneclient is licensed under the Apache License like the rest of OpenStack.

By way of a quick-start:
# use v2.0 auth with http://example.com:5000/v2.0")
>>> from keystoneclient.v2_0 import client
>>> keystone = client.Client(username=USERNAME, password=PASSWORD, tenant_name=TENANT, auth_url=KEYSTONE_URL)
>>> keystone.tenants.list()
>>> tenant = keystone.tenants.create(name="test", descrption="My new tenant!", enabled=True)
>>> tenant.delete()Attention
COMING SOON
The CLI is not yet implemented, but will follow the pattern laid out below.
Installing this package gets you a shell command, keystone, that you can use to interact with Keystone's API.
You'll need to provide your OpenStack username and API key. You can do this with the --username, --apikey and --projectid params, but it's easier to just set them as environment variables:
export OS_TENANT_NAME=project
export OS_USERNAME=user
export OS_PASSWORD=passYou will also need to define the authentication url with --url and the version of the API with --version. Or set them as an environment variables as well:
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://example.com:5000/v2.0
export KEYSTONE_ADMIN_URL=http://example.com:35357/v2.0Since Keystone can return multiple regions in the Service Catalog, you can specify the one you want with --region_name (or export KEYSTONE_REGION_NAME). It defaults to the first in the list returned.
You'll find complete documentation on the shell by running keystone help:
usage: keystone [--username user] [--password password]
[--tenant_name tenant] [--auth_url URL]
