Jira (BOLT-159) Bolt commands on Powershell require triple quoting

[Ethan Brown (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Ethan Brown commented on BOLT-159   Re: Bolt commands on Powershell require triple quoting The following comment was left on PR describing what's improved: While this is not a complete solution to more complex argument passing with --params (new BOLT ticket filed as BOLT-1130), for the more trivial cases where additional escaping is not required, this moves the ball forward. Given the command bolt command run 'echo "hi from $(hostname)"' --modulepath . --nodes winrm://localhost -u Administrator -p redacted --no-ssl Prior behavior was the following debug output listing arguments passed to Ruby command run echo "hi from $(hostname)" --modulepath . --nodes winrm://localhost -u Administrator -p *redacated* --no-ssl output ruby.exe : Unknown argument(s) from, $(hostname) At line:4 char:5 + &$env:RUBY_DIR\bin\ruby -S -- $env:RUBY_DIR\bin\bolt $args + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (Unknown argument(s) from, $(hostname):String ) [], RemoteException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError With this change the behavior is now debug output listing arguments passed to Ruby command run echo """hi from $(hostname)""" --modulepath . --nodes winrm://localhost -u Administrator -p *redacted* --no-ssl output Started on localhost... Finished on localhost: STDOUT: hi from fzh53hksnquvviv   Successful on 1 node: winrm://localhost Ran on 1 node in 0.95 seconds This also now better handles PowerShell escaped quotes as in the following example: bolt command run 'echo "hi from `"foo`""' --modulepath . --nodes winrm://localhost -u Administrator -p *redacted* --no-ssl output (with debug) command run echo "hi from `"foo`"" --modulepath . --nodes winrm://localhost -u Administrator -p *redacted* --no-ssl   ruby.exe : Unknown argument(s) from, `foo`" --modulepath . --nodes winrm://localhost -u Administrator -p *redacted* --no-ssl At line:4 char:5 + &$env:RUBY_DIR\bin\ruby -S -- $env:RUBY_DIR\bin\bolt $args + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (Unknown argumen...cted* --no-ssl:String) [] , RemoteException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError   command run echo """hi from `"""foo`"""""" --modulepath . --nodes winrm://localhost -u Administrator -p *redacted* --no-ssl   Started on localhost... Finished on localhost: STDOUT: hi from "foo"   Successful on 1 node: winrm://localhost Ran on 1 node in 0.97 seconds Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.7.1#77002-sha1:e75ca93) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
