Dicot
Dicot is provides an OpenStack API compatibility layer above the KubeVirt and Kubernetes APIs.
Note: Dicot is a heavy work in progress.
Introduction
The Kubernetes project provides a cluster based management service for container workloads. The KubeVirt project builds on this to provide a way to manage virtual machine workloads using the Kubernetes APIs.
Recognising the widespread adoption of OpenStack, the Dicot project aims to provide an Openstack API compatibility layer. This should allow existing tools written against OpenStack APIs to be run against Kubernetes and KubeVirt.
The API compatibility does not aim to cover all OpenStack projects. Initially it is just targetting the compute (Nova), identity (Keystone), image (Glance), and block (Cinder) services. Assuming it provides a faithful implementation of these APIs, the other OpenStack services could in theory be run talking to the Dicot API.
Submitting patches
When sending patches to the project, the submitter is required to certify that they have the legal right to submit the code. This is achieved by adding a line
Signed-off-by: Real Name <email@address.com>
to the bottom of every commit message. Existence of such a line certifies that the submitter has complied with the Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1, (as defined in the file docs/developer-certificate-of-origin).
This line can be automatically added to a commit in the correct format, by using the '-s' option to 'git commit'.
