David Robinson created TINKERPOP3-742:
-----------------------------------------
Summary: Console use / deactivate commands are not symmetric
Key: TINKERPOP3-742
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP3-742
Project: TinkerPop 3
Issue Type: Bug
Components: console
Affects Versions: 3.0.0.GA
Environment: All
Reporter: David Robinson
Assignee: stephen mallette
Priority: Trivial
To load a plug in and "activate it" one types:
:plugin use tinkerpop.sugar
However, to "unuse" a plugin, one types:
:plugin deactivate tinkerpop.sugar
and then stops and restarts the console.
The commands to "load" and "unload" a plug-in should be symmetric.
Either the commands should be:
:plugin use and :plugin unuse
or
:plugin activate and :plugin deactivate
or
:plugin load and :plugin unload
or whatever.
I can "bend my head" to understand, possibly why different terms were used
since a console restart is needed to unload the jar file for the plug-in, but
the command should still be symmetric for ease of use and to reduce confusion.
