stack commented on HBASE-9474:
------------------------------
Here is how it used to look before this patch:
{code}
durruti:trunk stack$ ./bin/hbase
Usage: hbase <command>
where <command> an option from one of these categories:
DBA TOOLS
shell run the HBase shell
hbck run the hbase 'fsck' tool
hlog write-ahead-log analyzer
hfile store file analyzer
zkcli run the ZooKeeper shell
upgrade upgrade hbase
PROCESS MANAGEMENT
master run an HBase HMaster node
regionserver run an HBase HRegionServer node
zookeeper run a Zookeeper server
rest run an HBase REST server
thrift run the HBase Thrift server
thrift2 run the HBase Thrift2 server
clean run the HBase clean up script
PACKAGE MANAGEMENT
classpath dump hbase CLASSPATH
version print the version
or
CLASSNAME run the class named CLASSNAME
Most commands print help when invoked w/o parameters.
{code}
It is missing options and it has awkward division of functions.
Here is what it looks like now after patch:
{code}
durruti:hbase stack$ ./bin/hbase
Usage: hbase [<options>] <command> [<args>]
Options:
--config DIR Configuration direction to use. Default: ./conf
--hosts HOSTS Override the list in ''regionservers' file
Commands:
Some commands take arguments. Pass no args or -h for usage.
shell Run the HBase shell
hbck Run the hbase 'fsck' tool
hlog Write-ahead-log analyzer
hfile Store file analyzer
zkcli Run the ZooKeeper shell
upgrade Upgrade hbase
master Run an HBase HMaster node
regionserver Run an HBase HRegionServer node
zookeeper Run a Zookeeper server
rest Run an HBase REST server
thrift Run the HBase Thrift server
thrift2 Run the HBase Thrift2 server
clean Run the HBase clean up script
classpath Dump hbase CLASSPATH
version Print the version
CLASSNAME Run the class named CLASSNAME
{code}
Above looks more like svn, git, httpd, etc., usage.
Looking for a +1
