Re: Ruby dev wanted

Hi Sebastien,
       I've read the ruby client project by Chips. It's pretty looks like
I'm doing now for _https://github.com/isaacchiang/cloud_ruby. Please have a
look. I believe there are
some code segments that would be helpful to the rOCCI driver. I need more
advice to
the rOCCI project, thanks.

Regard

Isaac

The best might be to have a look at the OCCI Opennebula documentation:
http://opennebula.org/documentation:rel4.2:occicg

OCCI is a cloud computing standard defined by OGF.  Similar to CIMI but a different standard :)

Basically instead of making calls to the CloudStack API, which is not an official standard, users could use an OCCI client to manage their cloud (basic functionality being to start/stop vms).  This means that CloudStack needs to expose a service that answers to OCCI standard requests. With rOCCI we can deploy a server side by side with CloudStack mgt server. The OCCI requests would get to that server and then be forwarded to the CloudStack mgt API server thanks to the driver that you can write :)

It is a similar idea to the AWS interface in CloudStack.

Does that make more sense ?

Hi Sebastien,
           Chip's cloudstack_ruby_client is almost ready (waiting for
second time pull request). I'll spend some time on rOCCi in next few weeks.
Currently I still can't have the pictures of what exactly the rOCCi is
doing. I'll try to find myself more use cases. Thanks for the provided
information.

Regards
Isaac

Isaac, thanks for the work on the ruby gem for cloudstack.

rOCCI is a server that implements the OCCI standard.
We need to create a CloudStack driver in rOCCI, based on the cloudstack gem from chip.
You can git clone rOCCI from github:
https://github.com/gwdg/rOCCI-server/tree/master

The drivers of backend are at:
https://github.com/gwdg/rOCCI-server/tree/master/lib/occi/backend

Once this is done, we should run it in parallel to a cloudstack instance and send OCCI requests to it, this will in turn send cloudstack api calls.

Happy to chat on IRC if you want,

Cheers,

-Sebastien

Looks great Isaac.  I merged the changes and pushed a 0.1.0 gem.

Hi Chip,

        I just sent the pull request for the cloudstack_ruby_client on
Github. Please have a look!
I did some restructure works, let me know if you have any concerns, thanks.

Happy to accept pull requests for cloudstack_ruby_client and to them
push the gem.

FWIW, you can always get the latest gem via: gem install
cloudstack_ruby_client
