Guangya Liu created MESOS-5640: ---------------------------------- Summary: Unify the help info for master/agent flags Key: MESOS-5640 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5640 Project: Mesos Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Guangya Liu Priority: Minor
Currently, in master/flags.cpp, some flags end up with a "\n" while some not, this caused the output not consistent. {code} --[no-]hostname_lookup Whether we should execute a lookup to find out the server's hostname, if not explicitly set (via, e.g., `--hostname`). True by default; if set to `false` it will cause Mesos to use the IP address, unless the hostname is explicitly set. (default: true) --http_authenticators=VALUE HTTP authenticator implementation to use when handling requests to authenticated endpoints. Use the default `basic`, or load an alternate HTTP authenticator module using `--modules`. Currently there is no support for multiple HTTP authenticators. (default: basic) --http_framework_authenticators=VALUE HTTP authenticator implementation to use when authenticating HTTP frameworks. Use the `basic` authenticator or load an alternate authenticator module using `--modules`. Must be used in conjunction with `--http_authenticate_frameworks`. {code} I think we should follow the linux "man command" format by adding "\n" to all flags. The following is a sample output for "man ls". {code} -@ Display extended attribute keys and sizes in long (-l) output. -1 (The numeric digit ``one''.) Force output to be one entry per line. This is the default when output is not to a terminal. -A List all entries except for . and ... Always set for the super-user. -a Include directory entries whose names begin with a dot (.). -B Force printing of non-printable characters (as defined by ctype(3) and current locale settings) in file names as \xxx, where xxx is the numeric value of the character in octal. -b As -B, but use C escape codes whenever possible. {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
