python-troveclient
Client library for OpenStack DBaaS API
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are working with OpenStack Trove or managing databases within an OpenStack deployment. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries no known vulnerabilities, and is the canonical client for the Trove API. Not relevant for non-OpenStack database management.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires an authenticated OpenStack Keystone session; typically used within an OpenStack deployment or with credentials to an OpenStack cloud.
- Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel distribution.
- Active maintenance status with a recent release (168 days ago).

What it is and what it does
python-troveclient is the official Python client for OpenStack Trove, OpenStack's database-as-a-service component. It provides both a programmatic API (the troveclient module) and a command-line interface (trove command) for managing database instances, backups, and configurations on OpenStack clouds. The package implements the full Trove API surface and integrates with OpenStack's authentication and identity services through keystoneauth1.
The package is designed for operators, developers, and automation tools that need to provision, configure, and manage databases through OpenStack. It depends on the broader OpenStack client ecosystem (osc-lib, python-openstackclient, keystoneauth1) and uses standard OpenStack patterns for authentication, service discovery, and API interaction. It supports Python 3.9 through 3.12.
Use it for
- Automate database instance provisioning and lifecycle management in OpenStack environments.
- Build monitoring or management dashboards that query Trove database instances and their status.
- Integrate database operations into infrastructure-as-code or orchestration workflows using the Python API.
- Manage database backups, restores, and configurations programmatically across an OpenStack deployment.
- Extend OpenStack CLI tooling with custom database management commands via the trove command-line interface.
