OpenStack Swift storage driver

An implementation of the storagedriver.StorageDriver interface that uses OpenStack Swift for object storage.

Parameters

authurl

URL for obtaining an auth token.

username

Your OpenStack user name.

password

Your OpenStack password.

container

The name of your Swift container where you wish to store objects. An additional container called _segments stores the data is used. The driver creates both the named container and the segments container during its initialization.

tenant

Optionally, your OpenStack tenant name. You can either use tenant or tenantid.

tenantid

Optionally, your OpenStack tenant id. You can either use tenant or tenantid.

domain

Optionally, your OpenStack domain name for Identity v3 API. You can either use domain or domainid.

domainid

Optionally, your OpenStack domain id for Identity v3 API. You can either use domain or domainid.

insecureskipverify

Optionally, set insecureskipverify to true to skip TLS verification for your OpenStack provider. The driver uses false by default.

region

Optionally, specify the OpenStack region name in which you would like to store objects (for example fr).

chunksize

Optionally, specify the segment size for Dynamic Large Objects uploads (performed by WriteStream) to Swift. The default is 5 MB. You might experience better performance for larger chunk sizes depending on the speed of your connection to Swift.

prefix

Optionally, supply the root directory tree in which to store all registry files. Defaults to the empty string which is the container's root.
