Summary: [RFE] Ensure heat works when only an auth_token is specified

Whiteboard:
Fixed In Version: openstack-heat-2013.2-0.8.b3.el6ost Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
The Orchestration service now accepts existing Keystone tokens, which Heat can use to interact with the underlying services. By default, python-heatclient now creates a token on your behalf, which is then passed to the Heat API. Alternatively, you can specify an existing token via the '--os-auth-token' option. Token support in Heat allows enhanced security over simple username/password authentication. This feature also reduces Keystone token generation, thereby reducing Identity service overhead.

I did some testing related to this recently, and found a number of issues related to token-only auth via python-heatclient:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-heatclient/+bug/1252248

Patches proposed but not yet merged:

https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/python-heatclient+branch:master+topic:bug/1252248_2,n,z

The heat API aspects all seem to work OK AFAICT, the issues were only in the client code, so we need to decide if this bug covers both of if we need a new bz tracking the client issues.

Comment 6 Steven Dake 2013-11-26 22:14:03 UTC
Since the bug is in the component openstack-heat and the bug you linked in your recent testing is in the component python-heatclient, a new bug is necessary.
