The only in-tree implementation of the nova.image.download.modules extension point was nova.image.download.file which was removed in Pike: I7687cc89545a7a8b295dd6535b4ccebc913a2e0e At the time of that removal, there was an operators ML thread asking if anyone was using this code, or the extension point, and the answer was no (or no answer at all). Since we have no in-tree implementation of this extension point and the extension point itself is not maintained or documented, and even the TransferBase base class was removed in Pike, we should deprecate the extension point and the configuration option associated with its use so that we can simplify our internal glance API client code. Note that the libvirt Rbd image backend which does support direct_url / image locations configuration for fast clones is still supported and unrelated to this code.

deprecations:
|
|
- |
|
|
The ``[glance]/allowed_direct_url_schemes`` configuration option and
|
|
``nova.image.download.modules`` extension point have been deprecated for
|
|
removal. These were originally added for the *nova.image.download.file*
|
|
FileTransfer extension which was removed in the 16.0.0 Pike release. The
|
|
``nova.image.download.modules`` extension point is not maintained
|
|
and there is no indication of its use in production clouds. If you are
|
|
using this extension point, please make the nova development team
|
|
aware by contacting us in the #openstack-nova freenode IRC channel or
|
|
on the openstack-dev mailing list.
