Currently the glance client can't operate on IPv6 address based openstack controller IPs. The reason for this is the absence of creation of a IPv6 socket in the glance client code (in https.py). The glance client is trying to create sockets from the AF_INET socket family but this will lead to errors when glance client makes a call on the IPv6 IP addresses. In order to fix this limitation, we ensure that if the hostname resolves to IPv6 or an explicit IPv6 address is used to configure the openstack controller - glance client shall be able to detect that and then create a AF_INET6 socket family. In all other cases a AF_INET socket is created. We default to IPv4 sockets in all other cases. Change-Id: I7d5a09675cd5dab2e39f0faeaa7c169291eedac6 Closes-bug: #1348030
Python bindings to the OpenStack Images API
This is a client library for Glance built on the OpenStack Images
API. It provides a Python API (the glanceclient module) and
a command-line tool (glance). This library fully supports
the v1 Images API, while support for the v2 API is in progress.
Development takes place via the usual OpenStack processes as outlined in the OpenStack wiki. The master repository is on GitHub.
