So having a URI too long error is, in this case, likely an indication
that you're requesting too many things at once.
You could:
1. Request 100 at a time in parallel
2. Find a query that would give you all those networks & page through
the reply
3. Page through all the user's networks and filter client-side
How is the user supposed to be assembling this giant UUID list? I'd
think it would be easier for them to specify a query (e.g. "get usage
data for all my production subnets" or something).

Hi folks,
I am writing a Neutron extension which needs to take 1000s of
network-ids as argument for filtering. The CURL call is as follows:
curl -i -X GET
'http://hostname:port/neutron/v2.0/extension_name.json?net-id=fffecbd1-0f6d-4f02-aee7-ca62094830f5&net-id=fffeee07-4f94-4cff-bf8e-a2aa7be59e2e'
-H "User-Agent: python-neutronclient" -H "Accept: application/json" -H
"X-Auth-Token: cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc"
The list of net-ids can go up to 1000s. The problem is, with such large
url, I get the "Request URI too long" error. I don't want to update this
limit as proxies can have their own limits.
What options do I have to send 1000s of network IDs?
1. -d '{}' is not a recommended option for GET call and wsgi Controller
drops the data part when routing the request.
2. Use POST instead of GET? I will need to write the get_<resource>
logic inside create_resource logic for this to work. Its a hack, but
complies with HTTP standard.
