Stuart Lewis commented on DS-1083:
----------------------------------
Some useful comments from Mark Wood:
A suggestion: since the DSpace API is rather heavy and takes a while
to start, folks who have many accounts to add would probably
appreciate the option to provide a file of identity records, rather
than start bin/dspace 100 times in a row.
If the file looked something like:
add-user -u USERID -n "NAME" -p PHONE -m EMAIL ...
then that would leave room for the inevitable:
delete-user -u USERID
and perhaps even:
alter-user -u USERID -p PHONE ...
and you probably could use the same commandline parser for records in
the file that you do for a single-user invocation.
Some other thoughts:
o some sites may want to pipe an identities file in, so "-" could be
recognized for special treatment in the usual way. Such a site
would probably also want status messages to be regular enough to
be readily machine-readable.
o sites that want to drive single-user invocations at the end of a
pipeline may want to provide the password on another pipe so that it
isn't on the commandline and won't show up on 'ps'. Typically this
means passing an FD number as the value of some option.
These are all things it would be nice to have, though they might have
to wait since IIRC you're on a tight deadline. Just to avoid making
it difficult to add them later would be much appreciated.
