python-searchlightclient
OpenStack Indexing and Search API Client Library
This is a client library for Searchlight built on the Searchlight API. It
provides a Python API (the searchlightclient module) and a command-line
tool (searchlight).
The project is hosted on Storyboard, where bugs can be filed. The code is
hosted on OpenStack git repository. Patches must be submitted using
Gerrit, not git repo
pull requests.
python-searchlightclient is licensed under the Apache License like the rest of
OpenStack.

Install the client from PyPI
The program python-searchlightclient package is published on PyPI and
so can be installed using the pip tool, which will manage installing all
python dependencies:
$ pip install python-searchlightclient

Note
The packages on PyPI may lag behind the git repo in functionality.

Setup the client from source

Clone repository for python-searchlightclient:
$ git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/python-searchlightclient.git
$ cd python-searchlightclient

Setup a virtualenv

Note
This is an optional step, but will allow Searchlightclient’s dependencies
to be installed in a contained environment that can be easily deleted
if you choose to start over or uninstall Searchlightclient.

$ tox -evenv --notest
Activate the virtual environment whenever you want to work in it.
All further commands in this section should be run with the venv active:
$ source .tox/venv/bin/activate

Note
When ALL steps are complete, deactivate the virtualenv: $ deactivate

Install Searchlightclient and its dependencies:
(venv) $ python setup.py develop

Command-line API
Set Keystone environment variables to execute CLI commands against searchlight.

To execute CLI commands:
$ export OS_USERNAME=<user>
$ export OS_PASSWORD=<password>
$ export OS_TENANT_NAME=<project>
$ export OS_AUTH_URL='http://localhost:5000/v2.0/'

Note
With devstack you just need to $ source openrc <user> <project>. And you can
work with a local installation by passing –os-token <TOKEN> and –os-url
http://localhost:9393. You can also set up a Openstackclient config file
to work with the CLI.

>>> auth = generic.Password(auth_url=OS_AUTH_URL, username=OS_USERNAME, password=OS_PASSWORD, tenant_name=OS_TENANT_NAME)
>>> keystone_session = session.Session(auth=auth)
>>> sc = client.Client('1', session=keystone_session)
>>> sc.resource_types.list()
