Henry Robinson commented on ZOOKEEPER-386: ------------------------------------------ Portable readline support with Java is a pain. JLine (http://jline.sourceforge.net/) does it, and is BSD licensed. Is it worth adding a library dependency to the CLI for this feature? > improve c and java cli shells > ----------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-386 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-386 > Project: Zookeeper > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: c client, java client > Reporter: Patrick Hunt > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.2.0 > > > copied from the following comments by Vegard > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-364?focusedCommentId=12696002&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_12696002 > ------------------------------------------------------------ > Possible improvements: > Default host list to localhost:2181 when not given. > Don't print a ton of debug, it looks like both cli_mt and zkCli.sh does this. > Make a simple ls that lists subnodes one line at a time and a simple cat that > lists only the node content, simple put etc. > Shell with gnu readline capabilities and tab completion on node names would > be a big improvement of usability during testing and debugging. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
