NAME

       lp-shell - Open an interactive launchpadlib shell.

SYNOPSIS

       lp-shell [-a] [-cPROGRAM] [--python] [--ipython] [service] [LP API version]

DESCRIPTION

       lp-shell  opens  an interactive Python shell with a launchpadlib.Launchpad object "lp" which is ready for
       use.

       It authenticates against Launchpad with the consumer name "udt-lp-shell". When using lp-shell with the -a
       option it will use the anonymous login from launchpadlib.Launchpad.

       By default lp-shell connects to the "production" Launchpad service using the "1.0" LP API version.

       If  you  want  to connect to another Launchpad service, call lp-shell with the service name as the second
       argument. lp-shell supports all services known by launchpadlib Python module.  Currently known are  (list
       can be incomplete or outdated): "production", "staging", "dogfood".

       A  different  LP  API  version  can  be selected by passing the API version to use as the third argument.
       Current supported are: "beta", "1.0" and "devel".
