Python language bindings for the Rackspace Cloud.
Project description
#pyrax Python SDK for OpenStack/Rackspace APIs
See the COPYING file for license and copyright information.
pyrax should work with most OpenStack-based cloud deployments, though it specifically targets the Rackspace public cloud. For example, the code for cloudfiles contains the ability to publish your content on Rackspace’s CDN network, even though CDN support is not part of OpenStack Swift. But if you don’t use any of the CDN-related code, your app will work fine on any standard Swift deployment.
See the [Release Notes](https://github.com/rackspace/pyrax/tree/master/samples) for what has changed in the latest release
##Getting Started with OpenStack/Rackspace To sign up for a Rackspace Cloud account, go to

## Installation The best way to install pyrax is by using [pip](http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/) to get the latest official release:
pip install pyrax
> Note: during the beta period, the above will not work. Use the github install below
If you would like to work with the current development state of pyrax, you can install directly from trunk on GitHub:
pip install git+git://github.com/rackspace/pyrax.git
If you are not using [virtualenv](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv), you will need to run pip install as admin using sudo.
You may also download and install from source. The source code for pyrax is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/rackspace/pyrax/).
Once you have the source code, cd to the base directory of the source and run (using sudo, if necessary):
python setup.py install
## Updates If you installed pyrax using pip, it is simple to get the latest updates from either PyPI or GitHub:
# PyPI pip install –upgrade pyrax # GitHub pip install –upgrade git+git://github.com/rackspace/pyrax.git
## Support and Feedback Your feedback is appreciated! If you have specific issues with the pyrax SDK, developers should file an [issue via Github](https://github.com/rackspace/pyrax/issues).
