Overview
--------

This is a client for the OpenStack `Bare Metal API
<https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/baremetal/>`_. It provides:

* a Python API: the ``ironicclient`` module, and
* a command-line interfaces: ``openstack baremetal``

Development takes place via the usual OpenStack processes as outlined in the
`developer guide <https://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html>`_.
The master repository is on `opendev.org
<https://opendev.org/openstack/python-ironicclient/>`_.

Quick-start Example::

    >>> from ironicclient import client
    >>>
    >>> kwargs = {'os_auth_token': '3bcc3d3a03f44e3d8377f9247b0ad155',
    >>>           'ironic_url': 'http://ironic.example.org:6385/'}
    >>> ironic = client.get_client(1, **kwargs)


``openstack baremetal`` CLI
---------------------------

The ``openstack baremetal`` command line interface is available when the bare
metal plugin (included in this package) is used with the `OpenStackClient
<https://docs.openstack.org/python-openstackclient/latest/>`_.

There are two ways to install the OpenStackClient (python-openstackclient)
package:

* along with this python-ironicclient package::

  # pip install python-ironicclient[cli]

* directly::

  # pip install python-openstackclient

An example of creating a basic node with the ``ipmi`` driver::

    $ openstack baremetal node create --driver ipmi

An example of creating a port on a node::

    $ openstack baremetal port create --node <UUID> AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF

An example of updating driver properties for a node::

    $ openstack baremetal node set --driver-info ipmi_address=<IPaddress> <UUID or name>

For more information about the ``openstack baremetal`` command and
the subcommands available, run::
