-------------------------------------
Summary: Allow prepending a custom user agent
Key: JCLOUDS-819
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-819
Project: jclouds
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: jclouds-core
Reporter: Everett Toews
Priority: Minor
Give your users the ability to _prepend_ a custom user agent. So if the
existing user agent is "jclouds/1.8.1 java/1.7.0_51"
Provide a method for your users to easily prepend their own user agent so they
can further customize it. e.g. "users-app/0.1.2 jclouds/1.8.1 java/1.7.0_51"
This will give cloud providers much better insight into how people are using
jclouds. This should be well documented and part of examples that are written
for jclouds.
It could be set like,
{code}
ComputeServiceContext context = ContextBuilder.newBuilder(PROVIDER)
.credentials(username, apiKey)
.userAgent("users-app/0.1.2")
.buildView(ComputeServiceContext.class);
{code}
