17:02:41 <jlkinsel> #topic Apache Cloudstack weekly irc meeting
17:03:54 <jlkinsel> OK guys, let's get the show rolling. :) I think this'll be a quiet mtg, will go through folks asking for topics/issues/blockers in my standard alpha order
17:04:03 <jlkinsel> bhaisaab: anything to discuss?
17:05:09 <bhaisaab> jlkinsel: yes
17:05:15 <bhaisaab> to report actually,
17:05:19 <jlkinsel> please do
17:06:00 <bhaisaab> in api_refactoring branch, I've successfully moved all 300 apis minus the anomalies to org.apache.cloudstack.api
17:06:20 <bhaisaab> the next step which was achieved was separate of role based access checking to an adapter, just like you have your plugins
17:07:16 <bhaisaab> so, now an org can write a plugin to check if a user role has access to an api, an example plugin that was written used the same ol' commands.properties file
17:07:38 <bhaisaab> Credits to Min, Fang and Prachi on api_refactoring
17:07:46 <jlkinsel> cool
17:07:51 <bhaisaab> Why this will help?
17:08:33 <jlkinsel> what's the benefit of an api call to see if a user role has access to an api? couldn't the user attempt to make the api call and check response?
17:08:38 <bhaisaab> 1. write better and automated apidocs, 2. Useful for developer to write and contribute, 3. For orgs to write their own roles (at present there are 4 static rols, an org can have more)
17:09:16 <bhaisaab> jlkinsel: for security, for example you may not want your user to create a zone, role based access checkers
17:09:30 <bhaisaab> see https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-cloudstack.git;a=commit;h=6ce68b93ccfe23c4001713ae38c6422029891726
17:09:52 <bhaisaab> this would allow an org to have multiple role, and not just root admin, domain admin and user
17:10:17 <jlkinsel> ok, will look.
17:10:23 <topcloud> jlkinsel: the api is not for the end user to call.
17:10:25 <bhaisaab> the wip stuffs are; annotations to remove a lot of bloat and automate things for the goals
17:10:36 <topcloud> jlkinsel: the code was embedded in cloudstack before.
17:10:47 <topcloud> we've separated out the code so that someone can replace it.
17:10:54 <bhaisaab> yes, we just separate that out as an adapter
17:11:08 <jlkinsel> ok understood, thx topcloud
17:11:14 <bhaisaab> only refactoring no, new code yes!
17:11:51 <bhaisaab> lastly, annotations is wip, will post an email probably by end of this week if we have anything (poc) to show
17:12:27 <jlkinsel> ok, thanks bhaisaab
17:12:32 <bhaisaab> congrats to Min, she's working on db views for response and awesome db list api optimizations
17:12:37 <bhaisaab> yes, done from my side
17:12:48 <ke4qqq> bhaisaab: please blog about this
17:12:52 <jlkinsel> yep
17:13:02 <bhaisaab> ke4qqq: this weekend may be ;)
17:13:03 <jlkinsel> chipc: around? anything to discuss?
17:13:26 <chipc> only to say "sorry - $dayjob is eating all time this week"
17:13:40 * jlkinsel knows how it goes
17:13:41 <chipc> I'm not doing a good job staying on top of 4.1.0 stuff
17:13:48 <chipc> but I expect that to change shortly
17:13:51 <chipc> EOF
17:14:01 <jlkinsel> 'k. :)
17:14:01 <ke4qqq> chipc: something we can help with til you get going again?
17:14:19 <chipc> topcloud already did
17:14:26 <chipc> organizing the feature list on the wiki
17:14:53 <chipc> the work that needs to happen is actually taking some of what I learned from Robyn's talk, and trying to get us better organized / informed about feature dev status
17:16:24 <chipc> that's it
17:17:54 <jlkinsel> myself - I need to reach out to infra again about planet cloudstack, will send a friendly reminder and see if I can get things moving there. Working on WiKID 2FA auth - still not quite ready for a commit, hopefully in the next few days. Trying to get people to add to the wishlist, will turn that into a jira/voting thing in the next few weeks.
