Hi,
I just want to ask about the relationship among openstackclient
https://launchpad.net/python-openstackclientand other clients.
Will openstackclient replace other clients ( such as quantum client,
keystone client, nova client, xx) or just a supplement?
My understanding (and hope) is that ultimately there will be a
separation between shell interfaces and REST interfaces.
Openstackclient will implement the commandline, and the other clients
(python-novaclient, python-glanceclient, etc.) will provide python APIs
for REST clients, of which openstackclient is one.
by now, the openstackclient is calling codes from other clients, so it
seems it is just another client wrapper. In this case, we will have to
implement two set of front codes to call specific client. One will be
in openstackclient, and one will be in separate client itself.
I expect non-common shell clients to be deprecated and eventually ripped
out. We're probably a bit too early in the game to explicitly
discourage development on those shell commands though.
