Issue #12322 has been updated by Daniel Pittman. Assignee deleted (Daniel Pittman)
---------------------------------------- Bug #12322: Legacy commands should offer help, not error, using `help` https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12322#change-92290 * Author: Eric Connell * Status: Accepted * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: documentation * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: 2.7.1 * Keywords: documention options parameters * Branch: ---------------------------------------- For non-Face CLI applications, we should always offer help when requested with `puppet help`, rather than being pedantic about errors. That is, `puppet help cert generate` should act the same as `puppet help cert`. ---- Original bug report: When requesting help via the cli commands, puppet does not support getting information about subcommands. For example: <pre>puppet help cert</pre> returns help for the cert command, but there is no method for getting a list of options of subcommands of cert. I would expect: <pre>puppet help cert generate</pre> to give me a list of options that can be passed to the generate subcommand. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
