Table Output, Autocomplete and more

In this release:

• The --format option was renamed into --output. Also, a bug was fixed where the program panicked with the option value not being a string.
• Table formatter was implemented. Apply it via --output table.
• Bash autocomplete was added. With it, resources, commands, option names and argument names can be completed now. So far, there is no support for the autocomplete of option and argument values. Windows Power Shell support is yet to be added too.
• 2 new commands were added: server add-secondary-network and server remove-secondary-network. See the API docs for details.

Releases now contain scripts to install the autocomplete. See README for more info.

More commands and stuff

In this release:

• server start-mainenance-mode, server stop-maintenance-mode and server import were implemented.
• The --password argument for server create and server update was renamed into --root-password to avoid conflicts with the password option.
• The functionality of exporting/loading arguments to/from files was implemented.
• Help was improved, both internally (command help is now constructed from a template) and from the user perspective (options and environment variables were included).
• Fixed a bug where query aliases may have not be applied if specified with unnormalized field names.
• Some guests from the Infrastracture camp came: Godeps, the build script and a short README.

Introducing filters

In this release:

• Support for filters was added. A filter can be specified via --filter option. For example, now we can filter out the servers that are inactive or whose os type does not contain the "Ubuntu 14" string like that:

  clc server list --filter status=active,os-type~="Ubuntu 14"
  

  For more info refer to the design document.

• A bug where queries with unnormalized fields may have not worked was fixed.

Initial release

This is the first release of the project.

Below is a brief description of the already implemented functionality. For more information refer to the project's design document and API docs.

Commands

The following commands are implemented so far:

• login
• alert-policy create, list, get, update, delete
• anti-affinity-policy create, list, get, update, delete
• custom-fields get
• data-center list, get, get-deployment-capabilities
• group create, list, get, update, delete, archive, restore, get-billing-details, get-monitoring-statistics
• network create, list, get, update, release, list-ip-addresses
• server create, list, get, update, delete, get-credentials, get-imports, add-ip-address, get-ip-address, remove-ip-address, update-ip-address, power-on, power-off, pause, reset, shut-down, archive, restore, create-snapshot, revert-to-snapshot, delete-snapshot
• firewall-policy create, list, get, update, delete
• load-balancer-pool create, list, get, update, delete
• load-balancer create, list, get, update, delete, get-nodes, update-nodes
• wait

All of the command parameters documented in the API docs are supported, but not all the validations possible are made on the client side yet.

Command options

The following options are supported so far:

• --help - clc --help, clc <resource> --help and clc <resource> <command> --help all work but server create is the only command with the full help for now
• --user - sets user for account authentication
• --password - sets password for account authentication
• --profile - chooses one of the authentication profiles (user and password) from the config
• --trace - prints HTTP request/response data to stdout
• --format - sets the output format, either json (default), text, or table, for now only json-formatter is implemented
• --query - specifies fields, possibly nested, to show in the output

Environment variables

Environment variables can be used instead of some of the command options. Support is provided for the following ones:

• CLC_USER
• CLC_PASSWORD
• CLC_PROFILE
• CLC_TRACE - any non-empty value is sufficient to switch on tracing

Also, authentication information can be stored in the ~/.clc/config.yml. The one with empty values is created automatically on the first execution of any command. clc login command can be used to save the given credentials to the config. After credentials are saved to the config, there is no need for further specifying them on the command line.
