This is a client for Rackspace's Cloud Servers API. There's :doc:`a Python API <api>` (the :mod:`cloudservers` module), and a :doc:`command-line script <shell>` (installed as :program:`cloudservers`). Each implements the entire Rackspace Cloud Servers API.
You'll need a Rackspace Cloud account, and you'll need to make sure to sign up for both Cloud Servers and Cloud Files -- Rackspace won't let you get an API key unless you've got a Cloud Files account, too. Once you've got an account, you'll find your API key in the management console under "Your Account".

You may want to read `Rackspace's API guide`__ (PDF) -- the first bit, at
least -- to get an idea of the concepts. Rackspace is doing the cloud
hosting thing a bit differently from Amazon, and if you get the concepts
this library should make more sense.
