libcloud.drivers.rackspace.RackspaceConnection : API documentation

Method	__init__	Initialize `user_id` and `key`; set `secure` to an `int` based on passed value.
Method	add_default_headers	Adds default headers (such as Authorization, X-Foo-Bar) to the passed `headers`
Method	host	Rackspace uses a separate host for API calls which is only provided after an initial authentication request. If we haven't made that request yet, do it here. Otherwise, just return the management host.
Method	request	Request a given `action`.

Inherited from ConnectionKey (via ConnectionUserAndKey):

Method	connect	Establish a connection with the API server.
Method	user_agent_append	Append a token to a user agent string.
Method	add_default_params	Adds default parameters (such as API key, version, etc.) to the passed `params`
Method	encode_data	Encode body data.
Method	_user_agent	Undocumented

@property
def host(self): (source)

Rackspace uses a separate host for API calls which is only provided after an initial authentication request. If we haven't made that request yet, do it here. Otherwise, just return the management host.

TODO: Fixup for when our token expires (!!!)

def request(self, action, params=None, data='', headers=None, method='GET'): (source)

overrides libcloud.base.ConnectionKey.request

Basically a wrapper around the connection object's `request` that does some helpful pre-processing.

Parameters	action	A path (type: `str`)
	params	Optional mapping of additional parameters to send. If None, leave as an empty `dict`. (type: `dict`)
	data	A body of data to send with the request. (type: `unicode`)
	headers	Extra headers to add to the request None, leave as an empty `dict`. (type: `dict`)
	method	An HTTP method such as "GET" or "POST". (type: `str`)
Returns	An instance of type responseCls
