Bug Description

The image-create-via-import command needs to make sure that it has all and only the correct inputs for the requested method before it performs any actions. Otherwise you get a situation where both a --file and --uri can be specified with no import-method (or with glance-direct, the default), an image record is created and staged but the do_image_import function later fails (because it has a uri and the method is not web-download -- do_image_import must do the check in case it's being invoked directly).

Sure, this can be fixed by making another import call directly, but that presupposes that the user knows how to do it correctly, which is doubtful since they already messed up the create-via-import call. It's better if create-via-import does nothing if the inputs it gets are incorrect. Otherwise, lots of calls to support and sad operators.

I'm not convinced that this is the case. Could you please give example command how you can reproduce this bug? I think the lines 126-139 of glanceclient/v2/shell.py are already covering the cases you mentioned, no?

Yeah, my bug description is incorrect. Here's what really happens:

1. Make this call using web-download and both --file and --uri:
glance image-create-via-import --disk-format raw --container-format bare --name Checking --file fake-image-data.txt --import-method web-download --uri https://www.openstack.org/assets/openstack-logo/2016R/OpenStack-Logo-Horizontal.eps.zip

2. response shows image in status 'uploading'

3. do image-show on the image; response now shows image in status 'importing'

Look in the glance-api log to find out that the task has been picked up and gone into failure mode because there's already stuff in the stage.

Just a quick summary ... the problem is that you can include extra inputs and the import will fail on the server side. I think it's better to make sure everything (or as much as we can check for) is processed on the client side.

    Make image-create-via-import fail faster

    Add checks to the image-create-via-import commmand so that it provides
    better user feedback and doesn't begin the import workflow unless the
    input has a chance of succeeding. Preserves backward compatibility
    with the current image-create command by (1) allowing an image record
    only to be created when no import-method is specified AND no data is
    supplied, and (2) doing the glance-direct workflow when no import-
    method is specified AND data is provided. Also adds the ability for
    the import-method to be set as an env var OS_IMAGE_IMPORT_METHOD.
