[DISCUSS] Next release of cloudmonkey and feature requests
Hi,
The current version of cloudmonkey 5.1.0 has couple of bugs that I had fixed in last couple of days, and for past couple of days I’m refactoring and enhancing it and will start a voting thread for a bugfix release.
I’m also thinking of introducing python plugin support so people can write plugins to change and enhance cloudmonkey’s behaviour on the fly which can be either installed in user’s ~/.cloudmonkey/plugins or via pypi and globally importable. Other ideas are to implement bash/zsh autocompleter and a bash/sh library to parse and extract cloudmonkey’s output so people can reuse that without writing their own sed/awk/grep hacks.
Any comments on the above and other features you would like to have, any bug fixing that should be addressed.
Regards,
Rohit Yadav

Hi,
I think we’re ready to do next release of cloudmonkey, please go ahead and test out cloudmonkey using latest master. Please go through the changelog and advise on the compatibility issues.
The wiki docs were updated, this notes the new multiple profiles feature:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/CloudStack+cloudmonkey+CLI#CloudStackcloudmonkeyCLI-Managementserverprofiles
Compatibility issues:
- With next release (5.2.0) we won’t have host, port, protocol and path params; instead a mgmt server URL can be set
- Missing keys will be set to default and saved by cloudmonkey before starting
Changelog:
Version 5.2.0
=============
This release includes
- In the config [server] section is deprecated now
- For missing keys, cloudmonkey will set default values
- Network requests, json decoding and shell related bugfixes
- Based on platform, it will install either pyreadline (Windows) or readline (OSX and Linux)
- Config param removal of `protocol`, `host`, `port`, `path`; uses `url` for the mgmt server URL
- Introduces server profiles so users can use cloudmonkey with different hosts and management server configs
- A default profile under the section [local] is added with default values
- Everytime `set` is called, cloudmonkey will write the config and reload config file
Regards.

Hi Lucian,
So, I’ve started a voting thread for the release. You may find the candidate artifacts here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/cloudstack/cloudmonkey-5.2.0/
If all goes well we would release it on Friday and party :)
Cheers.

Rohit,
That might just do it. Is this feature available in the new version already?

How about I introduce a way to sneek in host profiles, so you have a default host profile and you set host profile (think set profile <host profile> and it has its own section within the ~/.cloudmonkey/config file) to toggle between host configs so you don’t have to go back and forth when working with different servers. Will this solve your problem?

Hi,
Thanks for your work.
The problem I hit most while using cloudmonkey is having to switch between config files as I need to work on different deployments.
Having it be more "multi-host" friendly would be great. :-)
