README

What is this?

This is a fork repository of the OpenStack Java SDK (https://github.com/woorea/openstack-java-sdk) on which now I'm working.

You can find mainly two things in the 'dev' branch here.

Administrative Features Support
(Nova) Enabling Host operations (nova host-xxxx equivalents) * Just enabled the feature by adding support codes in Nova.java, and it's already merged.
(Nova) Host Aggregate operations (nova aggregate-xxxx equivalents) * Re-implemented the existing code so that they should work as expected.
(Nova) Hypervisor operations (nova hypervisor-xxxx equivalents)
(Nova) Service operations (nova service-xxxx equivalents)
(Nova) AvailabilityZone operations (nova availability-zone-list equivalent)
(Keystone) Token validation (in other words, AuthZ)
Bug fixes

Note that the above will be eventually proposed to the upstream and hopefully merged.

cinder support
- Note that python-novaclient uses 'volume' (cinder) endpoint for some operations. (i.e., /volumes)
heat support
API call timeout feature
log control feature
unit tests
Request/Response validation against JSON examples

Anyway, I needed to call OpenStack features from some program written in Java. When the programs were handed over to me, unfortunately they used nova/nova-manage command and parsed the terminal output. This is terrible :(, and that's why I looked for if there are OpenStack API Java bindings and found Luis's great works.
BTW, I'm mainly interested in administrative operations and I found that those features were not available, or I guess that they could be lower priority ones.
Thus, I began to work on the sdk mainly from a view point of adding administrative API calls.
