[one-users] boto with opennebula 2.2

[sebastien goasguen]

Actually I just got it to work with ONE 2.2 and latest boto on Ubuntu.
In your $HOME put a .boto file with your opennebula credentials:

sebgoa at belmiro:~$ cat .boto
[Credentials]
aws_access_key_id = <opennebula userid>
aws_secret_access_key = <hash of user passwd>
[Boto]
debug = 0
num_retries = 2

then launch python

sebgoa at belmiro:~$ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import boto
>>> import boto.ec2
>>> conn=boto.connect_ec2(region=boto.ec2.regioninfo.RegionInfo(name="opennebula",endpoint='<your opennebul>'),port=8443)
>>> myimages=conn.get_all_images()
>>> print myimages
[Image:ami-00000000, Image:ami-00000001]
>>> myimages[0].run()
Reservation:r-47a5402e
>>> myimages[0].run()
Reservation:r-47a5402e
>>> print conn.get_all_instances()
[Reservation:default]

>>> print conn.get_all_instances()[0].instances
[Instance:i-75, Instance:i-76, Instance:i-77, Instance:i-78, Instance:i-79]

(obviously I had other machines running)

>>> for instance in conn.get_all_instances()[0].instances:
...    instance.state
...
u'running'
u'running'
u'running'
u'running'
u'running'

The trick was the regioninfo instance.
Note that in my case the host:port I put in the regioninfo is an SSL
Proxy to Opennebula.
