    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-160?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13917538#comment-13917538 ] 

sai krishna commented on LIBCLOUD-160:
--------------------------------------

	I have found this interesting text from Roman:
	"I think we can use Tomaz's suggestion as a starting point:
	libcloud <api> <resource> <action>"
	Basing on the above quote from Roman's mail and the python-raxcli's look and feel
		(raxcli) help registry
		Command "registry" matches:
		- registry services list
		- registry services get
	Can I expect the same output format?
	One more doubt:
	api here can be one of the supported compute, storage, dns, load-balancers
	what are the <resources> ?
	I have identified possible <actions> to be:
		list, get , set, remove,
	Please help me with <resource> and <action> so that I will frame the proposal draft of the feature and post on Jira page for the same.

Following your earlier suggestions:
1. Getting familiar with the library
I followed this link and am able to successfully interact.
https://libcloud.apache.org/blog/2014/02/18/libcloud-0-14-and-google-cloud-platform.html

2. Getting familiar with the code base
I have Checked some already fixed bugs and I am currently working on Libcloud-230

3.To Start Drafting a proposal:
Working on the same and got the above doubts regarding the command framming.

Best Regards,

> This is an umbrella issue for Libloucd Command Line Interface task.
> ================================================ 
> Description: 
> A command line client for all of the APIs supported by libcloud (compute, storage, dns, load-balancers).
> Goals:
> - Build a CLI client for all of the APIs supported by Libcloud
> - Support for Python 2 and Python 3
> - Different user and machine readable output formats (tabular, json, csv, ...)
> - Colors
> - Bash auto-completion
> - Try to generate as much of the interface and commands programatically by parsing the code and docstrings. See https://github.com/islamgulov/libcloud.rest for some examples.
> For an example of how the client should look like, see https://github.com/racker/python-raxcli
