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-project-id, and --os-auth-url or set corresponding environment variables:

          export OS_USERNAME=user
          export OS_PASSWORD=pass
          export OS_PROJECT_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.
