[DISCUSS] CloudMonkey profiles to manage multiple CS instances
Would like to get the feel of what community thinks of having "profile" abilities in CloudMonkey.
I have multiple CS instances at the moment and AFAIK I have to reconfigure CloudMonkey for each when I have to switch - when working on my desktop.
Alternative, I could probably create multiple shell users and switch between each or do some other magic like swapping config files, but it would be nice just to switch between profiles just like we do in git between branches from within CloudMonkey shell.
Your input is welcome,
Thanks
ilya

Easily do-able, pass a cfg file as cmd param not sure if everyone
wants it? Like git or vim, cfg is by default local for a user in their
home folder ~/.cloudmonkey/{cache, config etc.}.
Regards.

Okay, we will keep the default in case a cfg is not passed; by default
it will be in ~/.cloudmonkey/config the way it is now.

But, we can an option to pass path to cfg so people can have multiple
instances of cloudmonkey with different profile.

Everything can be different, you can config their paths in the custom
config file or set them using:
set cache_file /path/to/specific/cache/file
set log_file <log file>
To start what you can do is, in a folder, start cloudmonkey -c myprofile.
It's okay if myprofile file does not exist, cloudmonkey will create it
for you, next you can edit this file or use set command.
I just fixed a minor issue, you should pip --upgrade or uninstall and reinstall.
Hope this helps.

Re: [DISCUSS] CloudMonkey profiles to manage multiple CS instances
Posted by Rohit Yadav <bh...@apache.org>.
Hi All,
In the latest cloudmonkey, one can pass a config file using -c <cfg
file> to run cloudmonkey with a different config. profile, the default
will be ~/.cloudmonkey/config. This would allow you to run multiple
cloudmonkey's with different config profiles.
I've uploaded the latest snapshot for everyone to install, try out and
report any bugs, suggestions, features. Thanks.
Usage:
cloudmonkey -v
cloudmonkey -h
# cp ~/.cloudmonkey/config myconfig
# edit my config
cloudmonkey -c <myconfig> <cmds and args>
Cheese shop:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cloudmonkey/4.1.0-snapshot
Upgrade:
sudo pip install --upgrade cloudmonkey
Regards.

Re: [DISCUSS] CloudMonkey profiles to manage multiple CS instances
Posted by Rohit Yadav <bh...@apache.org>.
Hi All,
In the latest cloudmonkey, one can pass a config file using -c <cfg
file> to run cloudmonkey with a different config. profile, the default
will be ~/.cloudmonkey/config. This would allow you to run multiple
cloudmonkey's with different config profiles.
I've uploaded the latest snapshot for everyone to install, try out and
report any bugs, suggestions, features. Thanks.
Usage:
cloudmonkey -v
cloudmonkey -h
# cp ~/.cloudmonkey/config myconfig
# edit my config
cloudmonkey -c <myconfig> <cmds and args>
Cheese shop:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cloudmonkey/4.1.0-snapshot
Upgrade:
sudo pip install --upgrade cloudmonkey
Regards.

Hi Ilya,
What you're suggesting can also work, the problem is tricky when
people use cloudmonkey as shell tool. Using the interactive shell, you
can fire up multiple instances and using set command you can have
various profiles in memory (each cloudmonkey has different host, port,
path, api, secret keys etc.), using various profiles in one cfg would
mean users would use something like sql's use statement to use a
profile; again becomes tricky as shell tool, so for each call you do
something like cloudmonkey -P <profile> <commands>.
So, I think it would be best if one keeps all their cfgs in
~/.cloudmonkey/config{0,1,2,3...} and calls cloudmonkey with default
cfg in ~/.cloudmonkey/config or using:
cloudmonkey -c <cfg file>
Thoughts?
Regards.

Why dont we keep the same config and just have multiple servers defined in single config file.
The shell prompt can then display the env name you are working on.
Example of prompt:
Cloudmonkey [ACS41QA] #

I don't want to provide paths of config file as param every time...

Alright will push the change tomorrow, the fix is simple, we'll also
change fixed/hard-coded caching file path and add option for people to
configure colors (themes for cloudmonkey colored output).

That seems like a lot of hassle. :-)
