             Summary: Rename options in CLI
                 Key: IGNITE-22108
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-22108
             Project: Ignite
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: cli
            Reporter: Aleksandr


The original CLI IEP offers both long and short options for some commands, for 
example
--cluster-endpoint-url localhost:8080 and  
-u localhost:8080

The CLI is becoming more complex than it was before. We add new commands and 
new options constantly. Now we can observe some confusions in short options 
across some commands.


The proposal for CLI short options is to define the following conventions:
- Use exactly one letter for the short options.
- Do not overwrite the one if it is already defined for some command.
- Use short options only for commands that will probably be used frequently. 

Proposed short options: 
-n for node-name
-h for help
-v for verbose
-u for user
-p for password

All other short options should be dropped.

Also some common options might be shorten:
- cluster-endpoint-url, node-url → url
- cluster-config → config
- cluster-config-file → config-file
- script-file → file
- cluster-name, node-name → name
- meta-storage-node → ms-node
