Rather than providing a Python API binding, it focuses on CLI convenience for users who need to manage placement operations from the shell. The plugin integrates with the OpenStackClient framework and relies on the REST API directly, meaning you invoke placement operations as CLI commands rather than through Python method calls.\n\nThe package depends on pbr, keystoneauth1, osc-lib, and oslo.utils. It requires Python 3.11 or later and is actively maintained. The plugin is designed for system administrators and operators working with OpenStack infrastructure who prefer command-line tools over programmatic access.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you operate an OpenStack environment and need CLI access to the Placement service. The package has low install friction, active maintenance, permissive licensing, and no known vulnerabilities. Install only if you are already using OpenStackClient and need placement-specific commands; it is not useful outside an OpenStack context."},"id":"osc-placement","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/osc-placement","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/osc-placement.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/osc-placement/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-01","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"osc-placement","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"OpenStackClient plugin for the Placement service"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":87022,"position":13820,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"4.9.0"}
