Neutron/LBaaS/CLI

Scope

This document describes LBaaS commands that need to be added into python-quantumclient in order to support LBaaS extension. The implementation is proposed to be extensible and support extensions.

Implementation Details

In Grizzly Quantum will be extended with advanced services framework, every service introduces an extension for Quantum's REST API. The same extended operations should be supported by CLI client.

It is proposed to introduce extension framework into Client. The framework will enumerate and load extensions, every extension announces itself with the command prefix and expands command set with new features. For example, LBaaS extension introduces command [lbaas] vip-list , prefix lbaas may be optional until commands from different extension interferes. For interactive mode the user should be able to specify what extension subset to use (in order to minimize the number of accessible commands). Note that it is not proposed to use sub-shell, since it would be harder to use and implement.
