# Export Image ## Prerequisite * ต้องมี image อยู่ใน project ## **If you want to export using Windows OS, follow these steps:** 1. Download & Install Python * Download Python from this link: * Check the box for **"Add python.exe to PATH"** and click **"Install Now"**. ![](https://t9003005656.p.clickup-attachments.com/t9003005656/3d4c4f1b-c19d-473d-8e11-cfdb991525f7/image.png) 2. Test if Python is working correctly by opening cmd and running the following command: ``` C:\Users\OhmzPC>python --version Python 3.13.3 ``` 3. Create a venv to use for the OpenStack client. ``` C:\Users\OhmzPC>cd Documents C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents>mkdir Export_Image C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents>cd Export_Image C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export_Image>python -m venv osclient C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export_Image>osclient\Scripts\activate (osclient) C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export_Image>pip install --upgrade pip Requirement already satisfied: pip in c:\users\ohmzpc\documents\export_image\osclient\lib\site-packages (25.0.1) (osclient) C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export_Image>pip install python-openstackclient (osclient) C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export_Image>openstack --version openstack 8.0.0 ``` 4. Download your Public API RC File.
5. Modify the RC file from .sh to .bat > * Change #!/usr/bin/env bash to @echo off > * Change # to rem > * Change export to set > * Change if \[ -z "$\" ]; then unset \; fi to if "%\%"=="" set \= > * Example: if \[ -z "$OS\_USER\_DOMAIN\_NAME" ]; then unset OS\_USER\_DOMAIN\_NAME; fi becomes if "%OS\_USER\_DOMAIN\_NAME%"=="" set OS\_USER\_DOMAIN\_NAME= > * Change read -sr OS\_PASSWORD\_INPUT to set /p OS\_PASSWORD\_INPUT= > * Open the file in a text editor to make these changes. For example: notepad your\_project\_RC\_file.bat From (osclient) C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export\_Image>notepad test\_project\_RC\_file.sh ``` #!/usr/bin/env bash # To use NIPA Cloud Space public API you need to authenticate against the Identity # service named keystone, which returns a **Token** and **Service Catalog**. # The catalog contains the endpoints for all services the user/project has # access to - such as Compute Instance, Compute Image, Block Storage, Networking. export OS_AUTH_URL=https://identity-api.nipa.cloud/ # Co-working project identity export OS_PROJECT_ID=834995e704b44fa888b7xxxxxxxxxxxx export OS_PROJECT_NAME="test_project" export OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME="nipacloud" if [ -z "$OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME" ]; then unset OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME; fi export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID="c6b00adf4ed04fc5a958121fadb0e401" if [ -z "$OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID" ]; then unset OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID; fi # unset v2.0 items in case set unset OS_TENANT_ID unset OS_TENANT_NAME # performing the action as the **user**. export OS_USERNAME="test_user@nipa.cloud" echo "Please enter your NIPA Cloud Space user's password for project $OS_PROJECT_NAME as user $OS_USERNAME: " read -sr OS_PASSWORD_INPUT export OS_PASSWORD=$OS_PASSWORD_INPUT # NIPA Cloud Space only have 1 region "NCP-TH" export OS_REGION_NAME="NCP-TH" # Don't leave a blank variable, unset it if it was empty if [ -z "$OS_REGION_NAME" ]; then unset OS_REGION_NAME; fi export OS_INTERFACE=public export OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3 ``` To (osclient) C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export\_Image>notepad test\_project\_RC\_file.bat ``` @echo off rem To use NIPA Cloud Space public API you need to authenticate against the Identity rem service named keystone, which returns a **Token** and **Service Catalog**. rem The catalog contains the endpoints for all services the user/project has rem access to - such as Compute Instance, Compute Image, Block Storage, Networking. set OS_AUTH_URL=https://identity-api.nipa.cloud/ rem Co-working project identity set OS_PROJECT_ID=834995e704b44fa888b7xxxxxxxxxxxx set OS_PROJECT_NAME=test_project set OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME=nipacloud if "%OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME%"=="" set OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME= set OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID=c6b00adf4ed04fc5a958121fadb0e401 if "%OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID%"=="" set OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID= rem unset v2.0 items in case set set OS_TENANT_ID= set OS_TENANT_NAME= rem performing the action as the **user**. set OS_USERNAME=test_user@nipa.cloud echo Please enter your NIPA Cloud Space user's password for project %OS_PROJECT_NAME% as user %OS_USERNAME%: set /p OS_PASSWORD_INPUT= set OS_PASSWORD=%OS_PASSWORD_INPUT% rem NIPA Cloud Space only have 1 region "NCP-TH" set OS_REGION_NAME=NCP-TH rem Don't leave a blank variable, unset it if it was empty if "%OS_REGION_NAME%"=="" set OS_REGION_NAME= set OS_INTERFACE=public set OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3 ``` 6. Run the .bat file and check if you can use the OpenStack client in your project. ``` (osclient) C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export_Image>test_project_RC_file.bat Please enter your NIPA Cloud Space user's password for project test_project as user test_user@nipa.cloud: <ใส่ password> (osclient) C:\Users\OhmzPC\Documents\Export_Image>openstack token issue +------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | expires | 2025-04-26T03:59:41+0000 | | id | gAAAAABoCwithNSV3tPsaDzi54VvrSxIz6V9rreRJBurlVV2e4Ii5aolilEBRWtUnargn4iKPu8ru-Rt0XqXJl3HHs1x5ZzmH-oM-XQoFRRi7ov_ofiuhryudjdbvSmKHX7d0ZsrEOIvrbCkAqH4gnPNlpsbNc6dnnY5P1s5vmqDrXsOAOB9ywY | | project_id | 834995e704b44fa888b7xxxxxxxxxxxx | | user_id | e6275119d15648bfb7c2xxxxxxxxxxxx | +------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ``` 7.
