Since the move to using the requests library, v1 list operations keep the connection open to the glance server. This is normally closed by the garbage collector if it is not explicitly closed, however the paginate function used by the list method had a circular reference preventing it from ever being collected during the lifecycle of a service consuming glanceclient. This is problematic, since it causes long running nova processes to run out of file descriptors for new connections. This patch makes paginate() non-recursive, which allows the connection to be freed. Change-Id: I16a7b02f2b10e506e91719712cf34ef0aea1afc0 Closes-Bug: 1423939
Python bindings to the OpenStack Images API ============================================= This is a client library for Glance built on the OpenStack Images API. It provides a Python API (the ``glanceclient`` module) and a command-line tool (``glance``). This library fully supports the v1 Images API, while support for the v2 API is in progress. Development takes place via the usual OpenStack processes as outlined in the `OpenStack wiki <http://wiki.openstack.org/HowToContribute>`_. The master repository is on `GitHub <http://github.com/openstack/python-glanceclient>`_. See release notes and more at `<http://docs.openstack.org/developer/python-glanceclient/>`_.
