Samuel de Medeiros Queiroz 6eb1551573 Use identity auth v3 the README examples
Identity auth v3 is the default in devstack. The keystone team
advertises all deployments to migrate over to v3.

If we get our examples to use v3, that would be a great help.

OpenStackClient (aka OSC) is a command-line client for OpenStack that brings
the command set for Compute, Identity, Image, Object Store and Block Storage
APIs together in a single shell with a uniform command structure.
The primary goal is to provide a unified shell command structure and a common
language to describe operations in OpenStack.

Getting Started
===============
OpenStack Client can be installed from PyPI using pip::
pip install python-openstackclient
There are a few variants on getting help. A list of global options and supported
commands is shown with ``--help``::
openstack --help
There is also a ``help`` command that can be used to get help text for a specific
command::
openstack help
openstack help server create
If you want to make changes to the OpenStackClient for testing and contribution,
make any changes and then run::
python setup.py develop
or::
pip install -e .
Configuration
=============
The CLI is configured via environment variables and command-line
options as listed in http://docs.openstack.org/developer/python-openstackclient/authentication.html.
Authentication using username/password is most commonly used::
export OS_AUTH_URL=<url-to-openstack-identity>
export OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=<project-name>
export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_NAME=<project-domain-name>
export OS_USERNAME=<username>
export OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME=<user-domain-name>
export OS_PASSWORD=<password> # (optional)
The corresponding command-line options look very similar::
--os-auth-url <url>
--os-identity-api-version 3
--os-project-name <project-name>
--os-project-domain-name <project-domain-name>
--os-username <username>
--os-user-domain-name <user-domain-name>
[--os-password <password>]
If a password is not provided above (in plaintext), you will be interactively
prompted to provide one securely.
Authentication may also be performed using an already-acquired token
and a URL pointing directly to the service API that presumably was acquired
from the Service Catalog::
export OS_TOKEN=<token>
export OS_URL=<url-to-openstack-service>
The corresponding command-line options look very similar::
--os-token <token>
--os-url <url-to-openstack-service>
