Engineering Team, which is subscribed to Glance. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1405707 Title: do we really need the function that image-download API will print the image downloaded to stdout by default Status in Python client library for Glance: Opinion Bug description: API image-download will download the image and print it to stdout by default, if we don't add ''--file" option. Is that used for redirect the output to a new file? Could we improve the default action of 'image-download'? From the help doc, we can see: # glance help image-download usage: glance image-download [--file <FILE>] [--progress] <IMAGE> Download a specific image. Positional arguments: <IMAGE> Name or ID of image to download. Optional arguments: --file <FILE> Local file to save downloaded image data to. If this is not specified the image data will be written to stdout. --progress Show download progress bar. output the image to stdout: #glance image-download 535c71a3-8ad3-442d-ac46-16b0ae1a5e53 `?$X? :'SS?:'S ..]..irros-rootfs0.j....q瓶 :'SAAAAA A A A AAABbcd.?b c d .@@@.
