Karan Mehta commented on HBASE-14925:
-------------------------------------
Thank you [~enis] and [~busbey] for your comments. I can look into the
comments, however I am not completely sure as to how to address them.
1. Will update all usages of Bytes::toString() to Bytes:: toStringBinary()
2. The internal formatter class is not good enough to display it in proper
tabular form, so I tried setting the width of column manually to a fixed size.
Let me try out some other approach as well. I am not sure how the output would
look if the screen size is smaller than the row size.
3. For projecting out specific columns, I can provide the addendum for the
users to add extra parameters after the initial params. If the user doesn't
provide any column, by default it will display all the data, else it will only
display the required ones. Please suggest ways as to how user should provide
the input. I believe that the command line argument parser is only able to
parse data separated with commas.
4. I am not sure how release notes are handled since I am new to this, but I am
happy to learn. Please provide me with relevant info.

> I am going through the hbase shell commands to see if there is anything I can
> use to get all the regions info just for a particular table. I don’t see any
> such command that provides me that information.
> It would be better to have a command that provides region info, start key,
> end key etc taking a table name as the input parameter. This is available
> through HBase UI on clicking on a particular table's link
> A tool/shell command to get a list of regions for a table or all tables in a
> tabular structured output (that is machine readable)
