<snip> Interesting, this actually maps really closely with one of the concepts that loading auth plugins from conf already provides. You can say [keystone_authtoken] auth_section = ref1 ... [ref1] auth_plugin = password auth_url = ... username = ... ... So that you can share or separate auth. We can probably leverage something similar here. Is this the "correct" way to configure glance? Would i be working on a deprecated section of code to make this support plugins? I can't really tell what is recommended from the code. So the question still comes down to fix it properly or get it working. If we configure glance this way i can add user_domain_id, user_domain_name, project_domain_id, project_domain_name to the variables that are read from [ref1] and get v3 support for user/pass that way fairly easily. To move to fully loading auth_plugins we would need to either get swiftclient support for sessions or move to using the HTTP API directly. I'm inclined to just patch it in for now, work on getting swiftclient session support and then use that when ready. Would this be ok?
