Miguel Grinberg 428e6b75a7 Add versions to all contrib plugins This change adds versions to the setup.cfg files of all the contrib plugins, so that pbr can determine the plugin version when the plugins are installed with pip. Because contrib plugins are not officially supported, a version of 0.1 is used. Change-Id: I7e55d7d018ecdbb878a22b236d75ecf87f7e3ed6 Closes-Bug: #1428879		2015-03-27 19:03:06 -07:00

ExtraRoute plugin for OpenStack Heat

This plugin enables using ExtraRoute as a resource in a Heat template.

This resource allows assigning extra routes to Neutron routers via Heat templates.

NOTE: Implementing ExtraRoute in the main heat tree is under discussion in the heat community.

This plugin has been implemented in contrib to provide access to the functionality while the discussion takes place, as some users have an immediate requirement for it. It may be moved to the main heat tree in due-course, depending on the outcome of the community discussion.

1. Install the ExtraRoute plugin in Heat

NOTE: Heat scans several directories to find plugins. The list of directories is specified in the configuration file "heat.conf" with the "plugin_dirs" directive.

2. Restart heat

Only the process "heat-engine" needs to be restarted to load the newly installed plugin.
