Right now with autocompletion enabled (set paramcompletion true), one can easily tab tab on an arg that is of uuid, boolean (and a special case account param) type and cloudmonkey lists uuids with names so one can pick a uuid for a suitable name. If we want to do autocompletion of names and which then translate to uuids is sort of doable but it will require a lot of background list API calls and a translation layer which can slow down cloudmonkey, and there is a corner case that an entity got removed and the name to uuid translation layer in cloudmonkey won’t know which uuid to pick and fail (few people may find it alright). > On Dec 9, 2014, at 3:03 AM, Erik Weber <[email protected]> wrote: > >> I'm trying to use cloudmonkey in some scripts and find it hard to check if >> there was anything returned or not. >> >> Would it be possible to have cloudmonkey not return an extra newline if >> there's no results? >> >> Example of current behaviour: >> >> [jenkins@packer-master ~]$ cloudmonkey list templates templatefilter=self >> name=packer-centos-6.6-60gb >> >> ( note this extra empty line ) >> >> [jenkins@packer-master ~]$ >> >> >> Expected behaviour: >> >> [jenkins@packer-master ~]$ cloudmonkey list templates templatefilter=self >> name=packer-centos-6.6-60gb >> >> [jenkins@packer-master ~]$ >> >> >> -- >> >> Erik >> >> On Thu, Dec 4, 2014 at 12:45 PM, Rohit Yadav <[email protected]> >> wrote: >> >>> Hi all, >>> >>> We want to work on the next release of CloudMonkey do you have any >>> issues that we should fix, or any new feature you want?
