Known subclasses: libcloud.compute.drivers.openstack.OpenStackComputeConnection, libcloud.loadbalancer.drivers.rackspace.RackspaceConnection, libcloud.storage.drivers.cloudfiles.CloudFilesConnection
| Parameters | user_id | User name to use when authenticating (type: string) |
| key | Secret to use when authenticating. (type: string) | |
| secure | Use HTTPS? (True by default.) (type: bool) | |
| ex_force_base_url | Base URL for connection requests. If not specified, this will be
determined by authenticating. (type: string) | |
| ex_force_auth_url | Base URL for authentication requests. (type: string) | |
| ex_force_auth_version | Authentication version to use. If not specified, defaults to
AUTH_API_VERSION. (type: string) | |
| ex_force_auth_token | Authentication token to use for connection requests. If specified, the
connection will not attempt to authenticate, and the value of
ex_force_base_url will be used to determine the base request URL. If
ex_force_auth_token is passed in, ex_force_base_url must also be provided. (type: string) | |
| ex_tenant_name | When authenticating, provide this tenant name to the identity service. A
scoped token will be returned. Some cloud providers require the tenant name
to be provided at authentication time. Others will use a default tenant if
none is provided. (type: string) | |
| ex_force_service_type | Service type to use when selecting an service. If not specified, a
provider specific default will be used. (type: string) | |
| ex_force_service_name | Service name to use when selecting an service. If not specified, a
provider specific default will be used. (type: string) | |
| ex_force_service_region | Region to use when selecting an service. If not specified, a provider
specific default will be used. (type: string) |
| Method | __init__ | Initialize `user_id` and `key`; set `secure` to an int
based on passed value. |
| Method | get_endpoint | Selects the endpoint to use based on provider specific values, or overrides passed in by the user when setting up the driver. |
| Method | add_default_headers | Adds default headers (such as Authorization, X-Foo-Bar) to the passed `headers` |
| Method | morph_action_hook | Undocumented |
| Method | request | Request a given `action`. |
| Method | _populate_hosts_and_request_paths | OpenStack uses a separate host for API calls which is only provided after an initial authentication request. |
| Method | _add_cache_busting_to_params | Undocumented |
Inherited from Connection (via ConnectionUserAndKey, ConnectionKey):
| Method | set_context | Undocumented |
| 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 | pre_connect_hook | A hook which is called before connecting to the remote server. This hook can perform a final manipulation on the params, headers and url parameters. |
| Method | encode_data | Encode body data. |
| Method | _tuple_from_url | Undocumented |
| Method | _user_agent | Undocumented |
int
based on passed value.| Returns | url of the relevant endpoint for the driver | |
Should return a dictionary.
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) | |
| raw | True to perform a "raw" request aka only send the headers and use
the rawResponseCls class. This is used with storage API when uploading a
file. (type: bool) | |
| Returns | An instance of type responseCls | |
