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

      export OS_USERNAME=user
      export OS_PASSWORD=pass
      export OS_TENANT_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.
