Billie Rinaldi commented on SLIDER-756:
---------------------------------------
[~jmaron], yes, with the install option it makes a client installation that is
used just like a standard deployment. I think that might be the only way to
mimic a standard deployment: if you don't have a client installation like this,
at a minimum you'd need to specify the slider app name to connect to the app.
If we're dropping the attempt at a client that works differently (no more
"accumulo-slider --app <appName> shell" instead of "accumulo shell"), then the
ideal might be to move an install-client command into slider, and then we won't
need app-specific clients at all.

> The idea behind this script is to make it easier to run the accumulo script
> (particularly the accumulo shell) against an accumulo instance running on
> slider. The basic idea is to have:
> {noformat}
> accumulo-slider --app <appName> <accumuloCommand>
> {noformat}
> and a few extra commands like:
> {noformat}
> accumulo-slider --app <appName> quicklinks
> accumulo-slider --app <appName> proxies
> accumulo-slider --app <appName> --appconf <confDir> getconf
> accumulo-slider --app <appName> install <installDir>
> {noformat}
> To run accumulo commands, the script requires ACCUMULO_HOME and SLIDER_HOME
> to be set in the environment.
> For the getconf command, you can download the conf to a specified directory,
> and in subsequent commands to accumulo-slider you could use the following to
> avoid having to download the conf each time:
> {noformat}
> accumulo-slider --appconf <confDir> <command>
> {noformat}
> For the install command, you specify an install dir, and it will pull down
> the app package, untar the accumulo tarball, and configure it. (I have
> concerns that this may be a brittle process.) Once this install dir is made,
> you could use it as a normal accumulo installation, using the accumulo script
> directly instead of the accumulo-slider wrapper script. The install dir
> could also be used as an ACCUMULO_HOME for future calls to accumulo-slider
> for other app instances.
