plugins.ini and quantum.conf: can we merge them?

Asked by Salvatore Orlando

Hi,

I was wondering why do we have two distinct file for Quantum API service configuration (default: /etc/quantum.conf) and for specifying the plugin (default ./plugins.ini). Plugins.ini at the moment only specifies the class of the quantum plugin.

It seems this information can be easily moved into quantum.conf. Is there a particular reason for keeping these two bits of configuration separated?

When I created the plugins.ini there wasn't general quantum.conf and the first pieces of code we wanted to get consensus around where the plugin interfaces.

Now that we have got things working better, I think collapsing the configuration file seems like a good idea. I'll create a bug for this issue.
