Quentin Pradet commented on LIBCLOUD-991:
-----------------------------------------
Great!
So the first step would be to run the tests locally:
http://libcloud.readthedocs.io/en/latest/testing.html. I like using `pytest`
and `pytest -k gce` myself instead of messing with PYTHONPATH and setup.py test
as documented.
Then I guess you can try implementing the pagination support itself, which
should not be too hard? I don't know. What I know is that adding tests can take
some time (you need to understand how they work and record example responses
from GCE), but we'll see that later.
Please tell me if I can help with anything.
> Can not retrieve more than 500VM on Google cloud
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LIBCLOUD-991
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-991
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compute
> Environment: Google cloud project with more than 500VMs (python 3 and
> last libcloud version AVL on pip)
> Reporter: charles walker
> Priority: Minor
>
> Today I notice that some of our VMs were not retrieve by our internal
> toolings. After some investigation it seems that libcloud "list_nodes()"
> method on google can only retrieve max 500VMs:
>
> [root@stackviewer-5cbcd8695-x964t /]# grep -o Vm response.log | wc -l
> 500
>
> when we have in reality around 750 VMs. So i had a quick look and my first
> guess is that it comes from the call made by liblcoud using this REST API:
> [https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/rest/v1/instances/aggregatedList]
> with an optional argument "maxResults" that has a default value of 500 (which
> seems also to be the max value BTW). I think i m on the good lead due to this
> 500 limit mentioned in the doc and also observe on my side.
> I will have a deeper look but just quickly open this ticket in case other
> people already saw this limit
>
