[glance] Listing all images with a set of custom properties
I am looking for a way to programmatically get all images that have been associated with a set of custom properties. Ideally, I should be able to say 'give me all images that have key1=value1, key2=value2, etc. Failing that, at least get all images that have the named keys key1, key2, etc. irrespective of their values, so I can filter for the values myself. I was looking at [1], specifically [2], and came up short. Any recommendations?

Create a dict of the properties you are interested in, for example, filters = {'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'} and then pass it as the value of the 'filters' argument to the 'list' call: image_list_generator = glance.list(filters=filters) You can have both "regular" and custom image properties as keys in the filters dict.

I don't think there's a way to do this, actually. I'm pretty sure it's not supported by the Images API.
