[ceph-users] neither posix nor rest

2014-03-11 Thread Lorieri
Hi,

I saw radosgw-admin doesn't require radosgw daemon.

I was wondering if by adding creation of buckets and manipulation of
objects to radosgw-admin (or a library similar to it) ceph would have
a great tool between the low and high levels of rados and radosgw, and
simpler than cephfs.

Of course those features, and object listing by prefix are not there
for good reason that I don't know, but maybe it worths to be
implemented and could make it easier for us (users) to innovate using
ceph.

We discussed the possibility of creating a rgw library for object
operations like that. Then it'd be easier to use it with radosgw-admin
or to create other tools on top of it. This might be a good starter
project as it's relatively easy to get something basic working.
