Openstack development using SDK - auth_url does not work

Question

Getting into openstack dev using this link, and turns out my auth_url is of the form http://192.168.43.18/identity/v3 from the openstack RC yaml file. When I use it, as used in the link, I get the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I have tried changing the auth url to http://192.168.43.18:35357 and also port 5000, but I get this error:

requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPConnectionPool(host='192.168.43.18', port=35357): Max retries exceeded with url: /v2.0/tokens (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7fe06f7dff90>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused',))

Using devstack version 16.0.0

Python code:

from libcloud.compute.types import Provider
from libcloud.compute.providers import get_driver

auth_username = 'demo'
auth_password = 'password'
#auth_url = 'http://controller:5000'
auth_url = 'http://192.168.43.18:35357'
#auth_url = 'http://192.168.43.18/identity/v3/'
project_name = 'demo'
region_name = 'RegionOne'

provider = get_driver(Provider.OPENSTACK)
conn = provider(auth_username,
                auth_password,
                ex_force_auth_url=auth_url,
                ex_force_auth_version='2.0_password',
                ex_tenant_name=project_name,
                ex_force_service_region=region_name)


#print "hello"
images = conn.list_images()
for image in images:
    print(image)

It looks like you could specify v3 instead:

from libcloud.compute.types import Provider
from libcloud.compute.providers import get_driver

auth_username = 'demo'
auth_password = 'password'
auth_url = 'http://192.168.43.18:5000'
project_name = 'demo'
region_name = 'RegionOne'

provider = get_driver(Provider.OPENSTACK)
conn = provider(auth_username,
                auth_password,
                ex_force_auth_url=auth_url,
                ex_force_auth_version='3.x_password',
                ex_tenant_name=project_name,
                ex_force_service_region=region_name)


#print "hello"
images = conn.list_images()
for image in images:
print(image)

There aren't many examples using v3. A tenant would normally be associated with 2.0, so I'm not sure if the ex_tenant_name option is required.

Keystone versioning:

https://developer.openstack.org/api-ref/identity/v3/

More information on libcloud:

https://libcloud.readthedocs.io/en/latest/compute/drivers/openstack.html#connecting-to-the-openstack-installation

Also, you can see if keystone is using v2.0:

curl http://192.168.43.18:5000/v2.0

If it is, then I would assume something like this would work:

from libcloud.compute.types import Provider
from libcloud.compute.providers import get_driver

auth_username = 'demo'
auth_password = 'password'
auth_url = 'http://192.168.43.18:5000'
project_name = 'demo'
region_name = 'RegionOne'

provider = get_driver(Provider.OPENSTACK)
conn = provider(auth_username,
                auth_password,
                ex_force_auth_url=auth_url,
                ex_force_auth_version='2.0_password',
                ex_tenant_name=project_name,
                ex_force_service_region=region_name)


#print "hello"
images = conn.list_images()
for image in images:
    print(image)

If it still isn't working, verify that you are using the public keystone endpoint. Depending on your version, you may receive a different level of information:

openstack endpoint list --long

or
