[Openstack] Fw: [openstack-dev] [Quantum]How to contribute LBaas driver?

Anybody can help answer my question?

As previous mail indicated, we are a Loadbanlancer vendor. 
We already developed our driver as Grizzly design requirement.
Now the driver is under internal testing.
Could you guys suggest what's the next move for contributing? Where to post the code and where to require code review?

And we also notice that in Havana there are big changes in LBaas and seems sturcture also changed to support multi vendors.
Is anything we vendor also need change to sync with OpenStack movement?

  Hi Hu,  


  Community plan to develop driver for HAProxy and this driver will be included into Griizly LBaaS by default. Other drivers are not mandatory and may be developed by vendors (we hope they will do this). The API for drivers is not finished yet, draft version is in blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/quantum/+spec/lbaas-driver-api We plan to complete the specification right after G2 milestone. 


  If you want to contribute driver code, the workflow is following:Â 
  Â * write a blueprint describing feature set implemented by driver (e.g. what types of protocols and health monitors are supported)
  Â * write code and unit tests
  Â * post code to review and pass it
  Overall these steps may take some time, but imho there are chances to get into G release.


  Thanks,
  Ilya

    Sam, or other guys can help answer this.
    I see the new plan is to finish the develop before milestone of grizzly-3(2012/2/21).
    And in the session minutes, it will include driver of F5,Citrix,Redware,Brocade. 
    Who will do the coding of these drivers? The company that owned the device?
    We are also contribute our driver based on our Load balance device(based on new LBaas structure), is ther any oppotunity to catch the grizzly schedule?
    I know there will be some code review or testing time, right?

      Hi,

      Â 

      The code is part of the standard Quantum trunk. 

      The blue prints and code containing LBaaS are part of the *new* one.

      Â 

      Regards,

      Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  -Sam.

      Hi, llya,

      Â 

      Is there an URL of the *new* LBaaS code repo? I did not find anything about LBaaS in quantum code repo, and I am still puzzled with the *current* status after reading that wiki...

      Â 

      is the Quantum/LBaaS/API_1.0 in wiki for the *new* LBaaS? and what is the current status? just a design or have had a runable implementation? I noticed that it is different with the *old* Mirantis/openstack-lbaas one.

      Â 

      I also noticed that there are several blueprints and also codereview which seems related with LBaaS, for example, lbaas-restapi-tenant, is this the *new* one? and currently what can we do if we want to design/code our drivers for the *new* one?

      Â 

      Thanks & Regards,

      Gavin

      Mirantis/openstack-lbaas is an "old" version for Essex release. It is a separate project and it was not incorporated with Openstack nor official devstack. The "new" LBaaS is a part of Quantum module and it will be included into upcoming Grizzly release. All information about it is on http://wiki.openstack.org/Quantum/LBaaS

      Thanks for Ilya's kindly reply.

      I previously got the code from github https://github.com/Mirantis/openstack-lbaas

      Seems it's at least 2 months not updated. Is this the old one?

      By search the file system of devstack, I did not find cooresponding file "*driver*" like in previous github files.

      Seems I need read more in this link http://wiki.openstack.org/Quantum/LBaaS

        The review process is rather straight-forward, depending on code quality it may require several iterations and a few weeks to be completed. 

        Â 

        If you are ready to start writing driver, note that its interface and workflow in Quantum LBaaS will differ from the initial LBaaS version. You may keep an eye on the progress by tracking blueprints on launchpad.net (specifically those that start with 'lbaas-' prefix). Regarding F5 driver - it was implemented for old LBaaS and will be not compatible with new version.

        Thanks,

        Ilya

        Another question.
        If our driver code was ready. How much longer it will take for the code pass review and accepted by openstack project?
        I see F5 already have driver published on github, but still not see their code in openstack code.
