Fog configuration for OVH's OpenStack Swift

Question

Has anyone managed to connect to OVH's OpenStack Swift with the Ruby gem Fog? They don't have documentation yet and support doesn't consider Ruby and Fog.

I'm getting the errors auth failed or get_version_v2() got an unexpected keyword argument 'auth' (unexpected json-structure) or other non-verbose errors.

Since I also have no experience with Fog and OpenStack I am lost here.

Answer 1

I ran into this too. Figured it out:

require 'fog'

service = Fog::Storage.new({
  :provider            => 'OpenStack',
  :openstack_username  => 'USERNAME AKA ID',
  :openstack_api_key   => 'PASSWORD',
  :openstack_auth_url  => 'https://auth.cloud.ovh.net/v2.0/tokens',
  :openstack_region    => 'BHS1'
})

GRA1, BHS1, SBG1 are your region options, you need to choose one.

I haven't confirmed the rest of it works yet, I'm just testing things now and I've gotten to this point. Don't rely on me for technical support, it's really something OVH needs to provide (or pay me to do).

Also make sure to create a user account, don't use the "default" storage bucket thing on the non-OpenStack admin page.
