Release notes

2.0 (TBD)

• Major renaming: the library is now called openstack.compute to reflect that Rackspace Cloud is just one instance of the open source project. This ripples to a lot of places:

  • The library is now called openstack.compute instead of cloudservers, and the main API entry point is now openstack.compute.Compute instead of cloudservers.CloudServers.
  • The shell program is now openstack-compute instead of cloudservers. Yes, the name’s a lot longer. Use alias.
  • The env variables are now OPENSTACK_COMPUTE_USERNAME and OPENSTACK_COMPUTE_API_KEY.

1.2 (August 15, 2010)

• Support for Python 2.4 - 2.7.
• Improved output of cloudservers ipgroup-list.
• Made cloudservers boot --ipgroup <name> work (as well as --ipgroup <id>).

1.1 (May 6, 2010)

• Added a --files option to cloudservers boot supporting the upload of (up to five) files at boot time.
• Added a --key option to cloudservers boot to key the server with an SSH public key at boot time. This is just a shortcut for --files, but it’s a useful shortcut.
• Changed the default server image to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
