APPENDIX B: Outstanding issues
...
2) How do we fit the existing 'copy_from' functionality in?
Is the v2 API retaining some equivalent of the existing
x-image-meta-location header, to allow an externally-stored
image be registered with glance?
e.g. via an image field specified on create or update:
POST /images HTTP/1.1
{"external-location": "s3://access:secret@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/image", ...}
or:
PUT /images/<IMAGE_ID> HTTP/1.1
{"external-location": "s3://access:secret@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/image", ...}
If so, the most straight-forward approach for copy-from would be to
follow a similar pattern with an image field such as:
POST /images HTTP/1.1
{"copy-from": "s3://access:secret@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/image", ...}
... etc.
Cheers,
Eoghan
