[gpfsug-discuss] restful way to get at SS OBJ store

[Bill Owen]

Also see:
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/api/object_api_v1_overview.html

The trial VM has python-swiftclient installed.  You can execute basic swift
commands as follows:

source openrc   #define environment variables for account, user credentials
etc.
swift stat  #show account statistics
swift upload <some containername> <some file>

One helpful trick is to execute the client commands with --debug flag.
This will show the exact http request that the client code is sending.  For
example:
# swift --debug stat

The object side is just openstack swift, so f.ex:

  I know in the trial VM it recommends using CyberDuck to get to the object
  side of scale.  Does anyone have a programmatic example of doing this?
  Python would be preferred here.
