Open Stack

(Including Adam, who implemented this feature last year to make sure I'm not misspeaking here :)

Hello Asha,

The consumers feature allows clients/services to register 'interest' in a given secret or container. The URL provided is unrestricted. Clients that wish to delete a secret or consumer may add logic to hold off deleting if other services have registered their interest in the resource. However for Barbican this data is only informational, with no business logic (such as rejecting delete attempts) associated with it.

I hope that helps.

Thanks,
John

Subject: Re: Barbican : Use of consumer resource

Including Alee and Paul in the loop

Refining the above question :

The consumer resource allows the clients to register with container resources. Please find the command and response below


POST v1/containers/888b29a4-c7cf-49d0-bfdf-bd9e6f26d718/consumers

Header: content-type=application/json
        X-Project-Id: {project_id}
{
    "name": "foo-service",
    "URL": "https://www.fooservice.com/widgets/1234"
}

I would like to know the following :

1. Who  does the client here refers to ? Openstack Services or any other services as well?

2. Once the client gets registered through the consumer resource , How does client consume or use the consumer resource

Any Help would be appreciated.

Thanks Asha.

Is there any API supporting the above operation.

Could any one please help on this?
