See here for package docs

http://godoc.org/github.com/ncw/swift

Build Status GoDoc

go get github.com/ncw/swift

Usage

See here for full package docs

Here is a short example from the docs

import "github.com/ncw/swift"

// Create a connection
c := swift.Connection{
    UserName: "user",
    ApiKey:   "key",
    AuthUrl:  "auth_url",
    Domain:   "domain",  // Name of the domain (v3 auth only)
    Tenant:   "tenant",  // Name of the tenant (v2 auth only)
}
// Authenticate
err := c.Authenticate()
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
// List all the containers
containers, err := c.ContainerNames(nil)
fmt.Println(containers)
// etc...

Additions

The rs sub project contains a wrapper for the Rackspace specific CDN Management interface.

Testing

To run the tests you can either use an embedded fake Swift server either use a real Openstack Swift server or a Rackspace Cloud files account.

When using a real Swift server, you need to set these environment variables before running the tests

export SWIFT_API_USER='user'
export SWIFT_API_KEY='key'
export SWIFT_AUTH_URL='https://url.of.auth.server/v1.0'

And optionally these if using v2 authentication

export SWIFT_TENANT='TenantName'
export SWIFT_TENANT_ID='TenantId'

And optionally these if using v3 authentication

export SWIFT_TENANT='TenantName'
export SWIFT_TENANT_ID='TenantId'
export SWIFT_API_DOMAIN_ID='domain id'
export SWIFT_API_DOMAIN='domain name'

And optionally these if using v3 trust

export SWIFT_TRUST_ID='TrustId'

And optionally this if you want to skip server certificate validation

export SWIFT_AUTH_INSECURE=1

And optionally this to configure the connect channel timeout, in seconds

export SWIFT_CONNECTION_CHANNEL_TIMEOUT=60

And optionally this to configure the data channel timeout, in seconds

export SWIFT_DATA_CHANNEL_TIMEOUT=60

Then run the tests with go test
