---------------------------------
> OpenStack BaseConnection: Allow Passing in an Auth Token
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LIBCLOUD-164
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-164
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Dave King
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.9.1
>
> Attachments: libcloud-164-attempt-2.patch, libcloud-164.patch
>
>
> Currently if you use Libcloud naively inside a web application, it will
> re-auth on each individual request that as user makes through the browser.
> It would be beneficial to allow OpenStack connection classes to be
> instantiated with an argument that allows them to use an existing
> authentication token.
> Because the authentication process determines the base URL (by extracting the
> service catalog and individual service tenantIDs), specifying the
> authentication token (and so skipping authentication) on creating the driver
> should also require specifying the base URL.
