OpenStack Object Storage (swift)

REST api documentation?

Asked by arous samy

Hi, was wondering if there is a documentation document around Swift's REST API?
Right now, I had to gather infos from different sources in order to run the test. Did I miss it?
Thanks

I believe documentation is currently being developed. But in the meantime, the best place to look for docs on swift's API is the developer docs for Rackspace's Cloud Files.

http://www.rackspacecloud.com/cloud_hosting_products/files/api/

Be sure to ignore the Rackspace-specific pieces like the CDN integration.

Great, I'll start there :)
Any guess on when they'll release the official doc?
Thanks

We're working on a docs.openstack.org site for the Bexar release which will contain a developer guide for OpenStack Object Storage that is very similar to the Cloud Files doc (that document is our starting point). I hope to have more specifics about authorization in the guide by February. Thanks for asking about the doc. :)
