Hi Ziad,
Sorry, that was my mistake. I meant to have "case service.name:" on that
pseudocode and not type. I wasn't proposing any EndpointType and don't see how
that would help.
The way that I was thinking was, you can either have the "services" table
pre-populated during keystone install/setup or have the user do it. Also
provide information on the docs about the services that keystone currently
support. The documentation would provide information to the user on how to add
an endpointTemplate to a particular service.
Perhaps this is a bit more clear:
case service.name:
openstack-swift)
try
endpointTemplate add [region] [service] [public_url]
[internal_url] [enabled] [is_global]
except
"Failed with improper number of arguments"swift)
show_some_help()
try
openstack-compute)
endpointTemplate add [region] [service] [public_url]
[admin_url] [internal_url] [enabled] [is_global]
....
openstack-swift)
If one needs to add a "generic/custom" service (one that keystone does not
know yet), perhaps keystone could be flexible enough to accept N numbers of
URLs for this "generic/custom" service. But I think this is something more for
the future.
