Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-11001:
----------------------------------------

bq. Should we check for args[1] also here

We can check for extra sanity, but if we know that args[0] is a String then we 
know the command is the original variant. If args[0] is a Hash, then it's the 
new variant. Only those two variants are supported.

bq. I would suggest make the *args to args = {} 

Show me how to do that and maintain full backwards compatibility with the 
current grant command. :-) I rarely touch the shell.

> For testing purposes it would be useful if the shell can support a simple 
> syntax for adding cell ACLs to existing cells. Consider a combination of 
> current 'grant' and 'scan' commands. 
> {noformat}
> grant '<userOrGroup>', '<perms>', '[<ns>:]<table>', { ... }
> {noformat}
> where the last argument is a scanner specification, for example (borrowed 
> from scan.rb): \\
> - { COLUMNS => 'c1', STARTROW => 'abc', ENDROW => 'xyz' }
> - { COLUMNS => 'c1', TIMERANGE => [123, 456] }
> - { COLUMNS => ['c1', 'c2'], FILTER => "(PrefixFilter ('foo') AND
>     (QualifierFilter (=, 'bar:'))) AND (TimestampsFilter (123, 456))" }
