        pyVmomi is the Python SDK for the VMware vSphere API that allows you to manage 
        ESX, ESXi, and vCenter.
        
        Getting Started
        ================
        To get started, check out the samples project at:
        
        *  http://vmware.github.io/pyvmomi-community-samples/
        
        * community discussion on IRC freenode.net channels `#pyvmomi and #pyvmomi-dev <http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#pyvmomi,#pyvmomi-dev>`_
        
        * community email is on `nabble <http://pyvmomi.2338814.n4.nabble.com>`_
        
        Installing
        ==========
        The master is code that is in development, official releases are tagged and 
        posted to `pypi <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyvmomi/>`_
        
        * The official release is availabe using pip, just run 
          ``pip install --upgrade pyvmomi``. 
        * To install the version in `github <https://github.com/vmware/pyvmomi>`_ use 
          ``python setup.py develop`` for development install or 
          ``python setup.py install``. 
        
        Testing
        =======
        Unit tests can be invoked by using the ``tox`` command. You may have to
        configure multiple python interpreters so that you can test in all the
        environments listed in ``tox.ini`` or you will have to run ``tox`` with the
        ``-e`` flag to run only in your version of python. For example, if you only
        have Python 2.7 then ``tox -e py27`` will limit your test run to Python 2.7.
        
        Contributing

        Documentation
        =============
        For general language neutral documentation of vSphere Management API see: 
        
        * `vSphere WS SDK API Docs <http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-55/topic/com.vmware.wssdk.apiref.doc/right-pane.html>`_
        
        Python Support
        ==============
        * pyVmomi 5.5.0.2014.1 and later support Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3 and 3.4
        * pyVmomi 5.5.0 and below support Python 2.6 and 2.7
        
        Compatibility Policy
        ====================
        pyVmomi versions are marked vSphere_version.release . Pyvmomi maintains minimum
        backward compatibility with the previous _four_ releases of *vSphere* and it's 
        own previous four releases. Compatibility with much older versions may continue 
        to work but will not be actively supported.
        
        For example, version v5.5.0.2014.1 is most compatible with vSphere 5.5, 5.1,
        5.0, and 4.1 and was the first release in 2014. Initial releases compatible with
        a version of vSphere will bare a naked version number of v5.5.0 indicating that 
        version of pyVmomi was released simultaneously with the *GA* version of vSphere 
        with the same version number.
