The :program:`ceilometer` shell utility
=========================================
.. program:: ceilometer
.. highlight:: bash
The :program:`ceilometer` shell utility interacts with OpenStack Ceilometer API
from the command line. It supports the entirety of the OpenStack Ceilometer API.
You'll need to provide :program:`ceilometer` with your OpenStack credentials.
You can do this with the :option:`--os-username`, :option:`--os-password`,
:option:`--os-tenant-id` and :option:`--os-auth-url` options, but it's easier to
just set them as environment variables:
.. envvar:: OS_USERNAME
Your OpenStack username.
.. envvar:: OS_PASSWORD
Your password.
.. envvar:: OS_TENANT_NAME
Project to work on.
.. envvar:: OS_AUTH_URL
The OpenStack auth server URL (keystone).
For example, in Bash you would use::
export OS_USERNAME=user
export OS_PASSWORD=pass
export OS_TENANT_NAME=myproject
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://auth.example.com:5000/v2.0
The command line tool will attempt to reauthenticate using your provided credentials
for every request. You can override this behavior by manually supplying an auth
token using :option:`--os-ceilometer-url` and :option:`--os-auth-token`. You can alternatively
set these environment variables::
export OS_CEILOMETER_URL=http://ceilometer.example.org:8777
export OS_AUTH_TOKEN=3bcc3d3a03f44e3d8377f9247b0ad155
From there, all shell commands take the form::
ceilometer <command> [arguments...]
Run :program:`ceilometer help` to get a full list of all possible commands,
and run :program:`ceilometer help <command>` to get detailed help for that
command.
V2 client tips
++++++++++++++
Use queries to narrow your search (more info at `Ceilometer V2 API reference`__)::
ceilometer sample-list --meter cpu_util --query 'resource_id=5a301761-f78b-46e2-8900-8b4f6fe6675a' --limit 10
