Public bug reported:

The placement api is exposed only as a wsgi script however there is no
documentation in nova or example configuration on how to use it. While
this tends to fit into a standard mold providing users with this
guidance is very useful. Right now the docs just say deploy it without
saying how:

https://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/placement.html

The only place to see the example config is in the devstack code:

https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack/blob/master/files/apache-
placement-api.template

which isn't really discoverable.

The keystone docs for example provide a very useful guide on how to do
this with in tree example configs:

https://docs.openstack.org/developer/keystone/apache-httpd.html
