stackforge/golang-client is yet another implementation of [OpenStack] (http://www.openstack.org/) API client in Go language. The code follows OpenStack licensing and borrows its infrastructure for code hosting. It currently implements [Identity Service v2] (http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-identity-service/2.0/content/) and [Object Storage v1] (http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-object-storage/1.0/content/). Some API calls are not implemented initially, but the intention is to expand the lib over time (where pragmatic).
Code maturity is considered experimental.
Use go get git.openstack.org/stackforge/golang-client.git. Or alternatively,
download or clone the repository.
The lib was developed and tested on go 1.2. No external dependencies, so far.
The examples directory contains examples for using the SDK using
real world working code. Each example starts with a two digit number followed
by a name (e.g., 00-authentication.go). If you have a config.json file in the
examples directory following the format of config.json.dist the example can be
executed using go run [example name] setup.go. Or, all the examples can be
executed running the script run-all.sh from the examples directory.
There are two types of test files. The *_test.go are standard
golang unit test files. The examples can be run as integration tests.
The tests were written against the [OpenStack API specifications] (http://docs.openstack.org/api/api-specs.html). The integration test were successful against the following:
If you use another provider and successfully completed the tests, please email the maintainer(s) so your service can be mentioned here. Alternatively, if you are a service provider and can arrange a free (temporary) account, a quick test can be arranged.
Apache v2.
The code repository borrows OpenStack StackForge infrastructure. Please use the [recommended workflow] (https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/GerritWorkflow). If you are not a member yet, please consider joining as an [OpenStack contributor] (https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/HowToContribute). If you have questions or comments, you can email the maintainer(s).
The source code is automatically formatted to follow go fmt by the [IDE]
(https://code.google.com/p/liteide/). And where pragmatic, the source code
follows this general [coding style]
(http://slamet.neocities.org/coding-style.html).
