Connection

The Connection class is the primary interface to the Python SDK. It maintains a context for a connection to a region of a cloud provider. The Connection has an attribute to access each OpenStack service.

At a minimum, the Connection class needs to be created with a config or the parameters to build one.

While the overall system is very flexible, there are four main use cases for different ways to create a Connection.

• Using config settings and keyword arguments as described in Configuring OpenStack SDK Applications

• Using only keyword arguments passed to the constructor ignoring config files and environment variables.

• Using an existing authenticated keystoneauth1.session.Session, such as might exist inside of an OpenStack service operational context.

• Using an existing CloudRegion.

Using config settings

For users who want to create a Connection making use of named clouds in clouds.yaml files, OS_ environment variables and python keyword arguments, the openstack.connect() factory function is the recommended way to go:

import openstack

conn = openstack.connect(cloud='example', region_name='earth1')

If the application in question is a command line application that should also accept command line arguments, an argparse.Namespace can be passed to openstack.connect() that will have relevant arguments added to it and then subsequently consumed by the constructor:

import argparse
import openstack

options = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Awesome OpenStack App')
conn = openstack.connect(options=options)

Using Only Keyword Arguments

If the application wants to avoid loading any settings from clouds.yaml or environment variables, use the Connection constructor directly. As long as the cloud argument is omitted or None, the Connection constructor will not load settings from files or the environment.

Note

This is a different default behavior than the connect() factory function. In connect() if cloud is omitted or None, a default cloud will be loaded, defaulting to the envvars cloud if it exists.

from openstack import connection

conn = connection.Connection(
    region_name='example-region',
    auth=dict(
        auth_url='https://auth.example.com',
        username='amazing-user',
        password='super-secret-password',
        project_id='33aa1afc-03fe-43b8-8201-4e0d3b4b8ab5',
        user_domain_id='054abd68-9ad9-418b-96d3-3437bb376703'),
    compute_api_version='2',
    identity_interface='internal')

Per-service settings as needed by keystoneauth1.adapter.Adapter such as api_version, service_name, and interface can be set, as seen above, by prefixing them with the official service-type name of the service. region_name is a setting for the entire CloudRegion and cannot be set per service.

From existing authenticated Session

For applications that already have an authenticated Session, simply passing it to the Connection constructor is all that is needed:

from openstack import connection

conn = connection.Connection(
    session=session,
    region_name='example-region',
    compute_api_version='2',
    identity_interface='internal')

From oslo.conf CONF object

For applications that have an oslo.config CONF object that has been populated with keystoneauth1.loading.register_adapter_conf_options in groups named by the OpenStack service’s project name, it is possible to construct a Connection with the CONF object and an authenticated Session.

Note

This is primarily intended for use by OpenStack services to talk amongst themselves.

from openstack import connection

conn = connection.Connection(
    session=session,
    oslo_conf=CONF)

From existing CloudRegion

If you already have an CloudRegion you can pass it in instead:

from openstack import connection
import openstack.config

config = openstack.config.get_cloud_region(
    cloud='example', region_name='earth')
conn = connection.Connection(config=config)

Using the Connection

Services are accessed through an attribute named after the service’s official service-type.

List

An iterator containing a list of all the projects is retrieved in this manner:

projects = conn.identity.projects()

Find or create

If you wanted to make sure you had a network named ‘zuul’, you would first try to find it and if that fails, you would create it:

network = conn.network.find_network("zuul")
if network is None:
    network = conn.network.create_network(name="zuul")

Additional information about the services can be found in the Service Proxies documentation.

from_config

openstack.connection.from_config(cloud=None, config=None, options=None, **kwargs)

Create a Connection using openstack.config

Parameters

• cloud (str) – Use the cloud configuration details when creating the Connection.

• config (openstack.config.cloud_region.CloudRegion) – An existing CloudRegion configuration. If no config is provided, openstack.config.OpenStackConfig will be called, and the provided name will be used in determining which cloud’s configuration details will be used in creation of the Connection instance.

• options (argparse.Namespace) – Allows direct passing in of options to be added to the cloud config. This does not have to be an actual instance of argparse.Namespace, despite the naming of the openstack.config.loader.OpenStackConfig.get_one argument to which it is passed.

Return type

Connection

Connection Object

class openstack.connection.Connection(cloud=None, config=None, session=None, app_name=None, app_version=None, extra_services=None, strict=False, use_direct_get=False, task_manager=None, rate_limit=None, oslo_conf=None, service_types=None, global_request_id=None, strict_proxies=False, pool_executor=None, **kwargs)

Create a connection to a cloud.

A connection needs information about how to connect, how to authenticate and how to select the appropriate services to use.

The recommended way to provide this information is by referencing a named cloud config from an existing clouds.yaml file. The cloud name envvars may be used to consume a cloud configured via OS_ environment variables.

A pre-existing CloudRegion object can be passed in lieu of a cloud name, for cases where the user already has a fully formed CloudRegion and just wants to use it.

Similarly, if for some reason the user already has a Session and wants to use it, it may be passed in.

Parameters

• cloud (str) – Name of the cloud from config to use.

• config (CloudRegion) – CloudRegion object representing the config for the region of the cloud in question.

• session (Session) – A session object compatible with Session.

• app_name (str) – Name of the application to be added to User Agent.

• app_version (str) – Version of the application to be added to User Agent.

• extra_services – List of ServiceDescription objects describing services that openstacksdk otherwise does not know about.

• use_direct_get (bool) – For get methods, make specific REST calls for server-side filtering instead of making list calls and filtering client-side. Default false.

• task_manager – Ignored. Exists for backwards compat during transition. Rate limit parameters should be passed directly to the rate_limit parameter.

• rate_limit – Client-side rate limit, expressed in calls per second. The parameter can either be a single float, or it can be a dict with keys as service-type and values as floats expressing the calls per second for that service. Defaults to None, which means no rate-limiting is performed.

• oslo_conf (ConfigOpts An oslo.config CONF object that has been populated with keystoneauth1.loading.register_adapter_conf_options in groups named by the OpenStack service’s project name.) – An oslo.config CONF object.

• service_types – A list/set of service types this Connection should support. All other service types will be disabled (will error if used). Currently only supported in conjunction with the ``oslo_conf`` kwarg.

• global_request_id – A Request-id to send with all interactions.

• strict_proxies (bool Throw an openstack.exceptions.ServiceDiscoveryException if the endpoint for a given service doesn’t work. This is useful for OpenStack services using sdk to talk to other OpenStack services where it can be expected that the deployer config is correct and errors should be reported immediately. Default false.) – If True, check proxies on creation and raise ServiceDiscoveryException if the service is unavailable.

• pool_executor (Executor A futurist Executor object to be used for concurrent background activities. Defaults to None in which case a ThreadPoolExecutor will be created if needed.) –

• kwargs – If a config is not provided, the rest of the parameters provided are assumed to be arguments to be passed to the CloudRegion constructor.

add_service(service)

Perform integer range searches across a list of dictionaries.

Given a list of dictionaries, search across the list using the given dictionary keys and a range of integer values for each key. Only dictionaries that match ALL search filters across the entire original data set will be returned.

It is not a requirement that each dictionary contain the key used for searching. Those without the key will be considered non-matching.

The range values must be string values and is either a set of digits representing an integer for matching, or a range operator followed by a set of digits representing an integer for matching. If a range operator is not given, exact value matching will be used. Valid operators are one of: <,>,<=,>=

Parameters

If a failure is detected creating the network ports, any ports created are deleted, and the node is removed from Ironic.

Parameters

• nics –

  An array of ports that represent the network interfaces for the node to be created. The ports are created after the node is enrolled but before it goes through cleaning.

  Example:

  [
      {'address': 'aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:01'},
      {'address': 'aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:02'}
  ]
  

  Alternatively, you can provide an array of MAC addresses.
