Is there a reason we couldn't have
openstack-placement be the package name?
I would hope we'd be able to do that, and probably should do that.
'openstack-placement' seems a find pypi package name for a think
from which you do 'import placement' to do some openstack stuff,
yeah?
That's still a pretty generic name for the top-level
import, but I think
the only real risk is that the placement service couldn't be
installed
at the same time as another package owned by someone
else that used that
top-level name. I'm not sure how much of a risk that really is.
You mean if there was another Python package that used the package
name
"placement"?
The alternative would be to make the top-level package something like
os_placement instead?
Either one works for me. Though I'm pretty sure that it isn't
necessary. The reason it isn't necessary is because the stuff
in the top-level placement package isn't meant to be imported by
anything at all. It's the placement server code.
What about placement direct and the effort to allow cinder to
import placement instead of running it as a separate service?
I don't know what placement direct is. Placement wasn't designed to be
imported as a module. It was designed to be a (micro-)service with a
REST API for interfacing.
In Vancouver we talked about allowing cinder to import placement as a
library. See https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/YVR-cinder-placement L47
I wasn't in YVR, which explains why I's never heard of it. There's a
number of misconceptions in the above document about the placement
service that don't seem to have been addressed. I'm wondering if its
worth revisiting the topic in Denver with the Cinder team or whether the
Cinder team isn't interested in working with the placement service?
