Client constructor lacking documentation

[Scott Devoid]

So there is this documentation:
https://github.com/openstack/python-glanceclient/blob/master/doc/source/index.rst

But it does not show examples for the v2 API. When I try to implement it exactly as shown I get a 300 MultipleEndpoints response for the v1 API.

Also, it would be nice if the client supported username, password and tenant arguments and generated a token via keystoneclient itself.

Hi Scott, would you mind adding more info how you got the 300 error? Cheers. And yes, I agree we need more document for Glance client, especially for v2.

Well first, HTTP 300 is a "Redirection: Multiple Choices" response,
not an error response. [1] Second, I do not have the exact details of
that issue since I reported it almost four months ago. I would suggest
that you look first into the python-glanceclient code and determine
what conditions would produce such a response. Second, as you say,
improve the documentation for calling the glance client code with
different endpoint versions (v1 and v2).

Thanks,
