The motivation for this conversion is to have DevStack's docs be generated using a more familair workflow for OpenStack projects, using Sphinx. Changing from raw HTML to RST will also make it easier to contribute more documentation, as well as making edits less of a hassle. The majority of the work was done by using Pandoc to convert from HTML to RST, with minor edits to the output to remove errors in Sphinx. Change-Id: I9636017965aeade37b950ddf5bdb0c22ab9004bd

openrc User authentication settings
openrc
configures login credentials suitable for use
with the OpenStack command-line tools. openrc
sources
stackrc
at the beginning (which in turn sources the
localrc
setion of local.conf
) in order to pick
up HOST_IP
and/or SERVICE_HOST
to use in the
endpoints. The values shown below are the default values.
- OS_TENANT_NAME
-
The introduction of Keystone to the OpenStack ecosystem has standardized the term tenant as the entity that owns resources. In some places references still exist to the original Nova term project for this use. Also, tenant_name is preferred to tenant_id.
OS_TENANT_NAME=demo
- OS_USERNAME
-
In addition to the owning entity (tenant), Nova stores the entity performing the action as the user.
OS_USERNAME=demo
- OS_PASSWORD
-
With Keystone you pass the keystone password instead of an api key. Recent versions of novaclient use OS_PASSWORD instead of NOVA_API_KEYs or NOVA_PASSWORD.
OS_PASSWORD=secrete
- HOST_IP, SERVICE_HOST
-
Set API endpoint host using
HOST_IP
.SERVICE_HOST
may also be used to specify the endpoint, which is convenient for somelocalrc
configurations. Typically,HOST_IP
is set in thelocalrc
section.HOST_IP=127.0.0.1 SERVICE_HOST=$HOST_IP
- OS_AUTH_URL
-
Authenticating against an OpenStack cloud using Keystone returns a Token and Service Catalog. The catalog contains the endpoints for all services the user/tenant has access to - including Nova, Glance, Keystone and Swift.
OS_AUTH_URL=http://$SERVICE_HOST:5000/v2.0
- GLANCE_HOST
-
Some exercises call Glance directly. On a single-node installation, Glance should be listening on
HOST_IP
. If its running elsewhere it can be set here.GLANCE_HOST=$HOST_IP
- KEYSTONECLIENT_DEBUG, NOVACLIENT_DEBUG
-
Set command-line client log level to
DEBUG
. These are commented out by default.# export KEYSTONECLIENT_DEBUG=1 # export NOVACLIENT_DEBUG=1
