Monty Taylor bb8b4bf5a5 Swap human-facing links to use opendev.org 
While we should not start using this for cloning things in the gate yet,
the opendev.org links provide for a nicer browsing experience already
even though the service is in beta. Go ahead and swap our browsing
links.

While in there, remove some masakari references to github links to the
source code. Masakari now publishes api docs to developer.openstack.org
so there is no need to point people to source code for api docs.

Connect

In order to work with an OpenStack cloud you first need to create a ~openstack.connection.Connection to it using your credentials. A ~openstack.connection.Connection can be created in 3 ways, using the class itself, config-clouds-yaml, or config-environment-variables. It is recommended to always use config-clouds-yaml as the same config can be used across tools and languages.

Create Connection

To create a ~openstack.connection.Connection instance, use the ~openstack.connect factory function.

../examples/connect.py

Full example at connect.py

Note

To enable logging, see the logging user guide.

Next

Now that you can create a connection, continue with the user_guides to work with an OpenStack service.
