-=============
-Configuration
-=============
-
-OpenStackClient is primarily configured using command line options and environment
-variables. Most of those settings can also be placed into a configuration file to
-simplify managing multiple cloud configurations.
-
-There is a relationship between the global options, environment variables and
-keywords used in the configuration files that should make translation between
-these three areas simple.
-
-Most global options have a corresponding environment variable that may also be
-used to set the value. If both are present, the command-line option takes priority.
-The environment variable names are derived from the option name by dropping the
-leading dashes (--), converting each embedded dash (-) to an underscore (_), and
-converting to upper case.
-
-The keyword names in the configurations files are derived from the global option
-names by dropping the ``--os-`` prefix if present.
-
-Global Options
---------------
-
-The :doc:`openstack manpage <man/openstack>` lists all of the global
-options recognized by OpenStackClient and the default authentication plugins.
-
-Environment Variables
----------------------
-
-The :doc:`openstack manpage <man/openstack>` also lists all of the
-environment variables recognized by OpenStackClient and the default
-authentication plugins.
-
-Configuration Files
--------------------
-
-clouds.yaml
-~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-:file:`clouds.yaml` is a configuration file that contains everything needed
-to connect to one or more clouds. It may contain private information and
-is generally considered private to a user.
-
-OpenStackClient looks for a file called :file:`clouds.yaml` in the following
-locations:
-
-* current directory
-* :file:`~/.config/openstack`
-* :file:`/etc/openstack`
-
-The first file found wins.
-
-The keys match the :program:`openstack` global options but without the
-``--os-`` prefix.
-
-::
-
- clouds:
- devstack:
- auth:
- auth_url: http://192.168.122.10:35357/
- project_name: demo
- username: demo
- password: 0penstack
- region_name: RegionOne
- ds-admin:
- auth:
- auth_url: http://192.168.122.10:35357/
- project_name: admin
- username: admin
- password: 0penstack
- region_name: RegionOne
- infra:
- cloud: rackspace
- auth:
- project_id: 275610
- username: openstack
- password: xyzpdq!lazydog
- region_name: DFW,ORD,IAD
- interface: internal
-
-In the above example, the ``auth_url`` for the ``rackspace`` cloud is taken
-from :file:`clouds-public.yaml` (see below).
-
-The first two entries are for two of the default users of the same DevStack
-cloud.
-
-The third entry is for a Rackspace Cloud Servers account. It is equivalent
-to the following options if the ``rackspace`` entry in :file:`clouds-public.yaml`
-(below) is present:
-
-::
-
- --os-auth-url https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com/v2.0/
- --os-project-id 275610
- --os-username openstack
- --os-password xyzpdq!lazydog
- --os-region-name DFW
- --os-interface internal
-
-and can be selected on the command line::
-
- openstack --os-cloud infra server list
-
-Note that multiple regions are listed in the ``rackspace`` entry. An otherwise
-identical configuration is created for each region. If ``-os-region-name`` is not
-specified on the command line, the first region in the list is used by default.
-
-The selection of ``interface`` (as seen above in the ``rackspace`` entry)
-is optional. For this configuration to work, every service for this cloud
-instance must already be configured to support this type of interface.
-
-If you are using Identity v3 you need to specify the user and the project
-domain name as shown in the example below:
-
-::
-
- clouds:
- devstack:
- auth:
- auth_url: http://192.168.122.10:35357/
- project_name: demo
- username: demo
- password: 0penstack
- user_domain_name: Default
- project_domain_name: Default
- region_name: RegionOne
-
-clouds-public.yaml
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-:file:`clouds-public.yaml` is a configuration file that is intended to contain
-public information about clouds that are common across a large number of users.
-The idea is that :file:`clouds-public.yaml` could easily be shared among users
-to simplify public cloud configuration.
-
-Similar to :file:`clouds.yaml`, OpenStackClient looks for
-:file:`clouds-public.yaml` in the following locations:
-
-* current directory
-* :file:`~/.config/openstack`
-* :file:`/etc/openstack`
-
-The first file found wins.
-
-The keys here are referenced in :file:`clouds.yaml` ``cloud`` keys. Anything
-that appears in :file:`clouds.yaml`
-
-::
-
- public-clouds:
- rackspace:
- auth:
- auth_url: 'https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com/v2.0/'
-
-Debugging
-~~~~~~~~~
-You may find the :doc:`configuration show <command-objects/configuration>`
-command helpful to debug configuration issues. It will display your current
-configuration.
-
-Logging Settings
-----------------
-
-By setting `log_level` or `log_file` in the configuration
-:file:`clouds.yaml`, a user may enable additional logging::
-
- clouds:
- devstack:
- auth:
- auth_url: http://192.168.122.10:35357/
- project_name: demo
- username: demo
- password: 0penstack
- region_name: RegionOne
- operation_log:
- logging: TRUE
- file: /tmp/openstackclient_demo.log
- level: info
- ds-admin:
- auth:
- auth_url: http://192.168.122.10:35357/
- project_name: admin
- username: admin
- password: 0penstack
- region_name: RegionOne
- log_file: /tmp/openstackclient_admin.log
- log_level: debug
-
-:dfn:`log_file`: ``</path/file-name>``
- Full path to logging file.
-:dfn:`log_level`: ``error`` | ``info`` | ``debug``
- If log level is not set, ``warning`` will be used.
-
-If log level is ``info``, the following information is recorded:
-
-* cloud name
-* user name
-* project name
-* CLI start time (logging start time)
-* CLI end time
-* CLI arguments
-* CLI return value
-* and any ``info`` messages.
-
-If log level is ``debug``, the following information is recorded:
-
-* cloud name
-* user name
-* project name
-* CLI start time (logging start time)
-* CLI end time
-* CLI arguments
-* CLI return value
-* API request header/body
-* API response header/body
-* and any ``debug`` messages.
-
-When a command is executed, these logs are saved every time. Recording the user
-operations can help to identify resource changes and provide useful information
-for troubleshooting.
-
-If saving the output of a single command use the `--log-file` option instead.
-
-* `--log-file <LOG_FILE>`
-
-The logging level for `--log-file` can be set by using following options.
-
-* `-v, --verbose`
-* `-q, --quiet`
-* `--debug`
-
-Locale and Language Support
----------------------------
-
-Full support for languages is included as of OpenStackClient 3.0.0. Here are a
-few tips to ensure you have a correct configuration.
-
-Verify preferred python encoding
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Please perform the following to diagnose ensure locale settings are correct.
-Run python interactively and print the preferred encoding value, e.g.:
-
-::
-
- $ python -c "import locale; print locale.getpreferredencoding()"
-
-If the value is ``ascii`` or ``ANSI_X3.4-1968`` or any other equivalent name for
-ASCII the problem is in your environment. You most likely do not have your LANG
-environment variable set correctly.
-
-Check the LANG environment variable
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-``LANG`` should be of the form: `lang_code`_`[region_code]`.`encoding`.
-For example, it may look like: ``en_US.UTF-8``
-
-The critical part here is the `encoding` value of ``UTF-8``. Python will look
-up locale information and if it finds an encoding value, it will set the
-encoding property of stdin, stdout and stderr to the value found in your
-environment, if it's not defined in your environment it defaults to ASCII.
-
-Redirecting output
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The above only occurs if stdin, stdout and stderr are attached to a TTY. If
-redirecting data the encoding on these streams will default to the default
-encoding which is set in the `site.py` of your Python distribution, which
-defaults to ASCII. A workaround for this is to set ``PYTHONIOENCODING`` to UTF8.
-
-::
-
- $ PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8
-
-A final note about DevStack
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-A common post devstack operation is to source the ``openrc`` file to set up
-environment variables. Doing so will unset the default ``LANG`` environment
-variable in your terminal, which will cause the preferred python encoding to
-be ``ascii``. We recommend either setting these environment variables
-independently or using the ``devstack`` or ``devstack-admin`` os-cloud profile.
-
-::
-
- $ openstack project list --os-cloud devstack-admin
