Thank, Gibi! A key aspect for notifications for Searchlight would be able to have the notification produce the same data that you’d get from the API. So, with micro versions, it would probably need to be configurable for the notifications emitted on perhaps a certain topic to be able to be emitted according to a specified API version.
Like most summits, there is a timing conflict for me, but at least a couple of us Searchlighters should be able to make that time.

Nova's API and notifications provide data in different formats; some information is missing and some is in different formats (1). In addition, notification information isn't versioned and can change at will. Currently we've taken the approach of treating the notification as a sign that something has happened and that we should get current state from the API. We'd love to be able to process notifications directly, and have some assurance that the format won't change drastically without warning. Michael suggested i start a mailing thread, but we also have a session tomorrow set aside for these kinds of discussions with other projects (2). If anyone's available to join us that would be splendid. Steve (apologies if this ends up getting sent twice) (1) For instance, 'accessIPv4' vs 'access_ip_v4', 'name' vs 'displayname'; extension information and some networking info like security groups generally isn't in notifications; notifications return more image information than the API (2) http://mitakadesignsummit.sched.org/event/1d1ef3b50d8d8607834697f0ef6d70d9#.VjBRWK4rJE4 __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org>?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
