Add API input validation utility for openstack common
This is a feature request to enable openstack-common code in oslo to perform common input validations
across Openstack API.
Most of the validation of create resource API are scattered and duplicated, across Nova, Keystone, Cinder, Glance. Due to this, there is a lot of inconsistency in how the APIs respond to similar classes of input.
Refer: https:/
A utility in Oslo will enable common validation tasks such as:
* checking input length (based on min and max values)
* checking input well-formedness (say, based on an expected regex),
* raise appropriate exceptions wherever needed
This could go into a separate module like openstack/
