[jira] [Commented] (LIBCLOUD-665) OpenStack identity component does not refresh auth tokens automatically

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-665?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14318445#comment-14318445 ] 

Jacob commented on LIBCLOUD-665:
--------------------------------

A fix for this would be to override the authenticated_request function in OpenStackIdentity_3_0_Connection ensuring that the auth token is refreshed if it is not available.

    def authenticated_request(self, action, params=None, data=None,
                              headers=None, method='GET', raw=False):
        """
        Perform an authenticated request against the identity API.
        """
        self.authenticate()                 <===================
        if not self.auth_token:
            raise ValueError('Not to be authenticated to perform this request')

        headers = headers or {}
        headers['X-Auth-Token'] = self.auth_token

        return self.request(action=action, params=params, data=data,
                            headers=headers, method=method, raw=raw)

>             Project: Libcloud
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Core
>    Affects Versions: 0.15.1
>            Reporter: Jacob
>
> After initialization of OpenStackIdentity_3_0_Connection class and authentication, it is possible to invoke functions to list_users etc.
> After a period of time, these function calls will fail since the auth token has expired and calls to authenticated_request() expect a valid auth token.
