[dev] [jira] [Commented] (LIBCLOUD-167) Rackspace Drivers: Allow Connection Kwargs in Driver Constructor

["Tomaz Muraus (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-167?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13230705#comment-13230705 ] 

Tomaz Muraus commented on LIBCLOUD-167:
---------------------------------------

I would prefer to use a mixin class, because in the current patch there is a lot of copy and pasted code which just makes it harder to maintain.

> The OpenStack Compute Driver allows specifying various connection arguments in its constructor, such as auth url/base url/auth version.
> Currently when instantiating drivers that use different connections I am just making new classes, this would remove that need.
> This updates the Rackspace DNS, Loadbalancer, and Storage drivers with the same functionality.  I investigated using a mixin briefly here but ran into failures in the tests, let me know if you would prefer me to investigate this further.
