Extending the CloudStack API
Hi,
I don't really know if such a feature exists or not, but I was under the
impression it was possible to extend the CloudStack API via a plug-in.
Is this remotely true? :)
Thanks!

Hi Rohit,
It's funny as...I watch this video, it dawned on me that I was literally in
the room during this presentation.
The thing is, this was like day 2 for me at my new company and I was super
new to CloudStack. Much of that weekend was a blur in retrospect as I was
exposed to SO many new things. :)
Thanks again!

Just remembered, Alex gave a talk on how to write plugin for 4.0.0:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGtt169nv20
The video does not show his screen, but you can see the plugin in
plugins/network-elements/dns-notifier

Re: Extending the CloudStack API
Posted by Rohit Yadav <bh...@apache.org>.
You may for example study smaller plugins such as ldap, md5 etc. (in
plugins/user-authenticators) for both 4.1+ and pre-4.1 versions.
For 4.1+ you should take a look at plugins/{acl, api} as well, they
too are small and read-able. And, may be you can help us write the
stub: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/CloudStack+API+Development
as a fresh developer trying to write a plugin you would be able to
write it with verbosity.

Re: Extending the CloudStack API
Posted by Mike Tutkowski <mi...@solidfire.com>.
Hi Rohit,
I appreciate you taking the time to answer these questions. :)
I could probably pull out an example from the codebase, but do you have one
in mind that might be a really good one for me to look at to learn first
hand how the code for this works (maybe one that exists in 3.x and 4.x)?
Thanks so much!

No, pluggable service was there before 4.1, but it was implemented
slightly differently. Each plugin would have it's own ACL mapping
file. Now we keep one ACL properties file, we have modified
annotations, api discovery service itself it a pluggable service
(plugin) which helps discovers any API.
You may use latest cloudmonkey and use sync to get any API you may be
adding to test and fire 'em.

If I read this correctly

is it true that extending the CS API was first introduced in 4.1?

The wiki has some information, which you should try to search for
answers to questions like this. Raise questions when things aren't
documented there, so that we know where to improve the content (or

Re: Extending the CloudStack API

Hi Nitin,
My use case will be covered by Edison's new storage plug-in framework
that's going in to 4.2. However, we have customers who won't be on that
version for some time and have a desire to map a single VM to a single
volume/LUN (and/or a single data disk to a single volume/LUN) in current
versions of CloudStack.
I have code that I could put into a new CS API that allows these customers
to create a volume on our SAN, then create, say, a Storage Repository on
XenServer to make use of this volume, then create a Primary Storage in CS
to reference this Storage Repository. It would also create a new Compute
or Data Disk Offering that is the only one that uses this Primary Storage.
Not super ideal...but workable at least until 4.2 is adopted by all of
these customers.
Talk to you later!
Mike

Yes. In 3.x, you'll have to specify the pluggable service in the components-locator.xml though.
