Documentations to develop a new API or provider?

[Behrooz N <no...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I am looking for a piece of documentation or example that helps to
implement a new API or provider with jClouds. As an example motivation,
let's say that I want to implement jClouds API in a local or mock
environment. How should I start with that?

Thanks in advance,
Behrooz

If you want to start with a simple "local mock", the BYON (Bring Your  
Own Node) API might be a good place to look:

https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/tree/master/apis/byon

If you're then looking to move to implementing a full provider, the  
following two threads contain a lot of useful information:

Hope this helps!
