Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-7353:
---------------------------------------
Thanks for the reviews.
I'm going to commit this to the snapshot branch (since it has snapshot
modifications not in trunk yet). I'll file a follow on as a sub of HBASE-781
to add tricks to the refguide, and try to get this in before the merge. (There
are more hooks I may add to the shell).
> [shell] have list and list_snapshot return jruby string arrays.

> It is really convenient to allow comamnds like list and list_snapshots return
> a jruby array of values in the hbase shell.
> it allows for nice things like this:
> {code}
> # drop all tables starting with foo
> list("foo.*").map { |t| disable t; drop t }
> {code}
> or
> {code}
> # clone all tables that start with bar
> list_snapshots("bar.*").map { |s| clone_snapshot s, s + "-table"}
> {code}
