openstack.compute.v2.keypair

The Keypair Class

The Keypair class inherits from Resource.

class openstack.compute.v2.keypair.Keypair(attrs=None, loaded=False)

fingerprint = None

The short fingerprint associated with the public_key for this keypair.

name = None

A name identifying the keypair

private_key = None

The private key for the keypair

public_key = None

The SSH public key that is paired with the server.

create(session)

Create a new keypair from this instance.

This is needed because the name is the id, but we can’t create one with a PUT. That and we need the private_key out of the response.
