Warnings

openstacksdk uses the warnings infrastructure to warn users about deprecated resources and resource fields, as well as deprecated behavior in openstacksdk itself. These warnings are derived from Warning or DeprecationWarning. In Python, warnings are emitted by default while deprecation warnings are silenced by default and must be turned on using the -Wa Python command line option or the PYTHONWARNINGS environment variable. If you are writing an application that uses openstacksdk, you may wish to enable some of these warnings during test runs to ensure you migrate away from deprecated behavior.
