ironicclient.client module

ironicclient.client.Client(version, endpoint_override=None, session=None, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Create a client of an appropriate version.

This call requires a session. If you want it to be created, use get_client instead.

Parameters
  • endpoint_override – A bare metal endpoint to use.

  • session – A keystoneauth session to use. This argument is actually required and is marked optional only for backward compatibility.

  • args – Other arguments to pass to the HTTP client. Not recommended, use kwargs instead.

  • kwargs – Other keyword arguments to pass to the HTTP client (e.g. insecure).
