[GitHub] style95 opened a new issue #2927: [Feature request] bash kind action

style95 opened a new issue #2927: [Feature request] bash kind action
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk/issues/2927
 
 
   Shell script is commonly used.
   If we can create an action with shell script, many users can take advantage of OpenWhisk.
   Even they can automate their bash logics or provide it as a REST API.
   
   For example, if someone wants to use OpenStack client feature in OpenWhisk action, it is also possible to implement all logics with OpenStack sdk.
   But it is too time-wasting job to implement all the features because there are huge number of  features.
   
   Instead, user can define shell script which execute [openstack cli](https://docs.openstack.org/python-openstackclient/latest/cli/command-list.html) and delegate to it.
   User can easily use all functionalities of OpenStack client and automate painful shell-accessing jobs.
   
   It is just an example, I think there might be more use-cases for bash kind action.
   
   In this scene, it would be important to define pre-installed packages.
