NAME
glance - Client for OpenStack Images API
SYNOPSIS
glance [options] <command> [command-options]
glance help
glance help <command>
DESCRIPTION
The glance command line utility interacts with OpenStack Images Service
(Glance).
In order to use the CLI, you must provide your OpenStack username,
password, project (historically called tenant), and auth endpoint. You
can use configuration options --os-username, --os-password,
--os-tenant-id, and --os-auth-url or set corresponding environment
variables:
export OS_USERNAME=user
export OS_PASSWORD=pass
export OS_TENANT_ID=b363706f891f48019483f8bd6503c54b
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://auth.example.com:5000/v2.0
The command line tool will attempt to reauthenticate using provided
credentials for every request. You can override this behavior by
manually supplying an auth token using --os-image-url and
--os-auth-token or by setting corresponding environment variables:
export OS_IMAGE_URL=http://glance.example.org:9292/
export OS_AUTH_TOKEN=3bcc3d3a03f44e3d8377f9247b0ad155
You can select an API version to use by --os-image-api-version option
or by setting corresponding environment variable:
export OS_IMAGE_API_VERSION=1
Default Images API used is v2.
