Stuart McLaren 0f0fe2ba1b New -k/--insecure command line option 
Fix for bug 929591.

Change glance to require server certificate validation
by default when using https. The standard system
CA file will be used if available (and an alternative was not
provided).

The --insecure option can be used by clients to skip server
certificate validation if appropriate.

* This change will impact Nova clients accessing glance over https.
  If the standard CA file is not suitable they will need to provide
  a CA file or else create an 'insecure' glance client.
* Accesses to a https registry server must now perform server
  certificate validation.
* If the package which provides the standard
  system CA file is installed then that file will be used by default.
  It probably makes sense for the glance package to have a
  dependency on whichever package provides the default CA bundle.
  (In Ubuntu this is 'ca-certificates')

README.rst

Glance

Glance is a project that defines services for discovering, registering, retrieving and storing virtual machine images. The discovery and registration responsibilities are handled by the glance-registry component while the retrieval and storage responsiblities are handled by the glance-api component.

Quick Start

If you'd like to run trunk, you can clone the git repo:

git clone git@github.com:openstack/glance.git

Install Glance by running:

python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install

By default, glance-registry will use a SQLite database. If you'd like to use MySQL, or make other adjustments, you can modify the glance.cnf file (see documentation for more details).

Now that Glance is installed, you can start the service. The easiest way to do that is by using the glance-control utility which runs both the glance-api and glance-registry services:

glance-control all start

Once both services are running, you can now use the glance tool to register new images in Glance.

glance add name="My Image" < /path/to/my/image

With an image registered, you can now configure your IAAS provider to use Glance as its image service and begin spinning up instances from your newly registered images.
