Image import is not tested

[mcapuccini]

We need to write CI for image import/export for the supported cloud providers

[sneumann]

Hi, image import may not be available on all Ostacks. I get:

TASK [upload image kubenow-v020a1 if not present ( url= https://httpd.pharmb.io/kubenow-img/kubenow-v020a1.qcow2 )] ***

Hi @sneumann. Do you mean that you would like the CI to import the image automatically in your OpenStack installation?

[mcapuccini]

Fixed in #158

[sneumann]

Hi, sorry for the late response, my issue is that on an OStack without
support for remote image locations there is the response 400 Bad Request: External sources are not supported but the ansible snippet will happily retry until it bails out.
It should be smart and give a reasonable error message for thus 400 Bad request.
Yours, Steffen

I see! I just merged a major refactory #158 that also fixed some problems with the OpenStack import. I was also very annoyed by this behaviour. Would you mind to test it?

[sneumann]

Is there a point if the os does not support pointing to an http location And insists on a real file upload? Yours Steffen

@sneumann Yes, there is a point, the new playbook downloads locally first and then uploads to OS. In the new glance API they removed the http/https image location when uploading images. I don't understand why they've done this. I was doing some research on Google, but I didn't really find any explanation for that. We'll do more research and come back to you.
