* In topic help text, mention how to get help for commandsPetr Viktorin2013-02-181-0/+3
| | | | | | | This should prevent user confusion when topic help is requested unintentionally, for example with `ipa help ping`. See https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3247
* Parse command arguments before creating a contextPetr Viktorin2013-02-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | This allows users to run `ipa COMMAND --help` even without Kerberos credentials. Part of the effort for https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3060
* Mention `ipa COMMAND --help` as the preferred way to get command helpPetr Viktorin2013-02-181-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | This avoids the problem with ambiguous command/topic names. No functionality is changed; `ipa help <COMMAND>` still works as before if there's no topic with the same name. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3247
* Add command summary to `ipa COMMAND --help` outputPetr Viktorin2013-02-181-2/+2
| | | | | | This makes the output identical to `ipa help COMMAND`. Part of the effort for https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3060
* Simplify `ipa help topics` outputPetr Viktorin2013-02-181-10/+3
| | | | | | | This brings the output closer to `ipa help commands` and removes extraneous information. Part of the effort for https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3060
* Store the OptionParser in the API, use it to print unified help messagesPetr Viktorin2013-02-181-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | Make `ipa -h` and `ipa help` output the same message. Since `ipa -h` output is generated by the OptionParser, we need to make the parser available. Store it in `api.parser`. Part of the effort for https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3060
* Print help to stderr on errorPetr Viktorin2013-02-181-30/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | Whenever a command is used incorrectly, it should output an error message (and possibly additional help) to stderr. This patch adds a parameter to a bunch of places to allow selecting either stdout or stderr for help output, and makes badly called commands output to stderr only. Part of the effort for https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3060
* Internationalization for public errorsPetr Viktorin2012-09-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we throw many public exceptions without proper i18n. Wrap natural-language error messages in _() so they can be translated. In the service plugin, raise NotFound errors using handle_not_found helper so the error message contains the offending service. Use ScriptError instead of NotFoundError in bindinstance install. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1953
* Rework the CallbackInterfacePetr Viktorin2012-06-141-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix several problems with the callback interface: - Automatically registered callbacks (i.e. methods named exc_callback, pre_callback etc) were registered on every instantiation. Fix: Do not register callbacks in __init__; instead return the method when asked for it. - The calling code had to distinguish between bound methods and plain functions by checking the 'im_self' attribute. Fix: Always return the "default" callback as an unbound method. Registered callbacks now always take the extra `self` argument, whether they happen to be bound methods or not. Calling code now always needs to pass the `self` argument. - Did not work well with inheritance: due to the fact that Python looks up missing attributes in superclasses, callbacks could get attached to a superclass if it was instantiated early enough. * Fix: Instead of attribute lookup, use a dictionary with class keys. - The interface included the callback types, which are LDAP-specific. Fix: Create generic register_callback and get_callback mehods, move LDAP-specific code to BaseLDAPCommand Update code that calls the callbacks. Add tests. Remove lint exceptions for CallbackInterface. * https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2674
* Add CLI parsing testsPetr Viktorin2012-03-281-4/+20
| | | | | | | These test that command lines are parsed to correct Command arguments. Includes some tests for interactive prompts. To make this possible cli.run is broken up into several pieces.
* Fix the procedure for getting default values of command parameters.Jan Cholasta2012-03-281-4/+4
| | | | | | | The parameters used in default_from of other parameters are now properly validated before the default_from is called. ticket 1847
* Only split CSV in the client, quote instead of escapingPetr Viktorin2012-03-201-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Splitting on commas is not an idempotent operation: 'a,b\,c' -> ('a', 'b,c') -> ('a', 'b', 'c') That means we can't do it when the call is forwarded, so this is only done on the CLI. The UI already sends values as a tuple. Replace escaping in the csv parser with quoting. Quoted strings can have embedded commas instead of having to escape them. This prevents the csv parser from eating all escape characters. Also, document Param's csv arguments, and update tests. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2417 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2227
* Ignore case in yes/no promptsMartin Kosek2012-03-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | We did not accept answers like "Yes", "YES", "No", etc. as valid answers to yes/no prompts (used for example in dnsrecord-del interactive mode). This could confuse users. This patch changes the behavior to ignore the answer case. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2484
* Improve dnsrecord interactive helpMartin Kosek2012-03-011-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add 2 new features to DNS record interactive help to increase its usability and also make its behavior more consistent with standard parameter interactive help: 1) Ask for missing DNS parts When a required part of a newly added DNS record was missing, we just returned a ValidationError. Now, the interactive help rather asks for all missing required parts of all DNS records that were being added by its parts. 2) Let user amend invalid part When an interactive help asked for a DNS record part value and user enters an invalid value, the entire interactive help exits with an error. This may upset a user if he already entered several correct DNS record part values. Now, the help rather tells user what's wrong and give him an opportunity to amend the value. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2386
* Add common helper for interactive promptsPetr Viktorin2012-02-191-29/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a common method, textui.prompt_helper, that handles encoding, decoding and error handling for interactive prompts. On EOFError (Ctrl+D) or KeyboardInterrupt (Ctrl+C), it raises a new InvocationError, PromptFailed. The helper is used in prompt, prompt_yesno, and prompt_password, each of which originally only handled one of Ctrl+C and Ctrl+D. This fixes https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2345 And it means prompt_yesno will no longer return None on error. A minor fix restores errors.py's ability print out the list of errors when run as a script.
* Base64-decode unicode values in Bytes parameters.Jan Cholasta2012-02-131-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Fix wrong handling of strings in --setattr/--addattr/--delattr. These changes make it possible to use Bytes in --setattr/--addattr/ --delattr without errors. Fixes managing SSH keys on command-line https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/754
* Add argument help to CLIMartin Kosek2012-02-061-9/+81
| | | | | | | | | | | | CLI command help contains a documentation for all options that can be passed to commands. However, help strings for positional arguments are not included. This patch uses an OptionParser description field to list all command arguments as OptionParser does not have a native support to provide such information to user. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1974
* Improve migration helpMartin Kosek2012-02-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Improve migration help topic so that it easier understandable: - Add missing list of Topic commands - Add one more example to demonstrate migration abilities - Add breaks to too long lines to improve readibility https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2174
* Improve CLI output for complex commandsMartin Kosek2012-01-121-4/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Complex commands may have many options or non-standard output. This patch adds 2 improvements to handle these commands better: 1) Add "option_group" parameter attribute Make command help more readable by specifying an option group for the parameter. All parameters in the same option group are then placed to one named option group 2) Allow nested entries in the output Current CLI output module cannot handle a list of nested entries (dictionaries) contained in an entry attribute. Make sure they are printed properly (with indentation) https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2082
* Finalize plugin initialization on demand.Jan Cholasta2011-11-221-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the way plugins are initialized. Instead of finalizing all the plugins at once, plugins are finalized only after they are accessed (currently applies to Command, Object and Attribute subclasses, only in CLI by default). This change provides significant performance boost, as only the plugins that are actually used are finalized. ticket 1336
* Fix problems in help systemRob Crittenden2011-10-201-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | Fixes 3 issues: - If a topic has all its commands disabled, it should be disabled - If a command is disabled its help should be disabled - The show-mappings help was missing a doc string so no help was displayed https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1998
* Unroll StrEnum values when displaying helpAlexander Bokovoy2011-10-031-1/+4

* Require current password when using passwd to change your own password.Rob Crittenden2011-10-041-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new required parameter, current_password. In order to ask this first I added a new parameter option, sortorder. The lower the value the earlier it will be prompted for. I also changed the way autofill works. It will attempt to get the default and if it doesn't get anything will continue prompting interactively. Since current_password is required I'm passing a magic value that means changing someone else's password. We need to pass something since current_password is required. The python-ldap passwd command doesn't seem to use the old password at all so I do a simple bind to validate it. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1808
* ticket 1706 - internationalize cli help frameworkJohn Dennis2011-08-241-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | In cli.py is a framework for printing out help information. The command documentation being displayed is internationalized, however the text generated by the help framework itself is not internationalized. The strings output by the help subsystem need to be internationalized.
* ticket 1705 - internationalize help topicsJohn Dennis2011-08-241-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | * Wrap each topic description in _() * Replace the use of if 'topic' in dir(module) with the more Pythonic and efficient getattr(module, 'topic', None) * Make sure to invoke unicode on the value returned from _() otherwise you'll get a GettextFactory instance, not a string * Clean up trailing whitespace errors
* Add option to only prompt once for passwords, use in entitle_registerRob Crittenden2011-08-241-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | A Password param always prompted to confirm the entered password. This doesn't make sense if you want to prompt for a password to another system like we do with entitlements. This adds a new boolean option to control the Password prompt parameter. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1695
* Improve interactive mode for DNS pluginMartin Kosek2011-06-021-0/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | Interactive mode for commands manipulating with DNS records (dnsrecord-add, dnsrecord-del) is not usable. This patch enhances the server framework with new callback for interactive mode, which can be used by commands to inject their own interactive handling. The callback is then used to improve aforementioned commands' interactive mode. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1018
* Assume ipa help for plugins.Jan Cholasta2011-05-131-0/+6

* Several improvements of the lint script.Jan Cholasta2011-05-051-0/+1
| | | | | | | | Report missing python packages, inform about false positives, fail gracefully if pylint isn't installed. Fixed a bug in the ignore list and added few more files/directories to it. ticket 1184
* Fix lint false positives.Jan Cholasta2011-04-131-2/+2

* Use pygettext to generate translatable strings from plugin files.Pavel Zuna2011-03-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch replaces xgettext with a custom pygettext to generate translatable strings from plugin files in ipalib/plugins. pygettext was modified to handle plural forms (credit goes to Jan Hendrik Goellner) and had some bugs fixed by myself. We only use it for plugins, because it's the only place where we need to extract docstrings for the built-in help system. I also had to make some changes to the way the built-in documentation systems gets docstrings from modules for this to work.
* Translate docstrings.Pavel Zuna2011-03-011-3/+7

* Fixed type of argument in class helpJan Zeleny2011-02-141-1/+1

* Provide a way to display CLI-LDAP relationJan Zeleny2011-02-101-1/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | Since some LDAP attributes have their cli_name value defined, so they can be more user friendly, it can be difficult for user to find out which attributes do the parameteres given to CLI really represent. This patch provides new command, which will take another IPA command as and argument and display attributes which given command takes and what LDAP attributes are they mapped to. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/447
* Fix crash in ipa help for NO_CLI plugins.Pavel Zuna2011-02-021-14/+2
| | | | Fix #854
* Add support for tracking and counting entitlementsRob Crittenden2011-02-021-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds a plugin, entitle, to register to the entitlement server, consume entitlements and to count and track them. It is also possible to import an entitlement certificate (if for example the remote entitlement server is unaviailable). This uses the candlepin server from https://fedorahosted.org/candlepin/wiki for entitlements. Add a cron job to validate the entitlement status and syslog the results. tickets 28, 79, 278

* Rename INTERNAL to NO_CLI for commands we hide from the cli.Rob Crittenden2011-01-211-3/+3
| | | | | | Also make i18n_messages and json_metadata NO_CLI. ticket 821
* Make command syntax less confusing in helpJan Zeleny2011-01-211-0/+1
| | | | | | The patch adds [options] to the syntax line of ipa help <command> https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/733
* Add API version and have server reject incompatible clients.Rob Crittenden2011-01-141-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch contains 2 parts. The first part is a small utility to create and validate the current API. To do this it needs to load ipalib which on a fresh system introduces a few problems, namely that it relies on a python plugin to set the default encoding to utf8. For our purposes we can skip that. It is also important that any optional plugins be loadable so the API can be examined. The second part is a version exchange between the client and server. The version has a major and a minor version. The major verion is updated whenever existing API changes. The minor version is updated when new API is added. A request will be rejected if either the major versions don't match or if the client major version is higher than then server major version (though by implication new API would return a command not found if allowed to proceed). To determine the API version of the server from a client use the ping command. ticket 584
* Fix output of failed managedby hosts, allow a host to manage itself.Rob Crittenden2011-01-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | The output problem was a missing label for failed managedby. This also fixes a call to print_entry that was missing the flags argument. Add a flag to specify whether a group can be a member of itself, defaulting to False. ticket 708
* Display the entries that failed when deleting with --continue.Rob Crittenden2011-01-101-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | We collected the failures but didn't report it back. This changes the API of most delete commands so rather than returning a boolean it returns a dict with the only current key as failed. This also adds a new parameter flag, suppress_empty. This will try to not print values that are empty if included. This makes the output of the delete commands a bit prettier. ticket 687
* Changed concept of ipa helpJan Zeleny2011-01-071-20/+97
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The concept is now following: topic: either a module or a group of modules containing registered commands. All these commands will usually handle common entity type (e.g. hbac rules) subtopic: each topic can have a number of subtopics. In this case topic is a group of modules and each module represents a subtopic. grouping modules to topics is possible by assigning a 2-tuple to module variable: topic = ('topic-name','topic description') The topic description has to be the same in all modules in the topic. These are examples of commands now available in IPA help: ipa help - display a list of all topics ipa help hbac - display help for hbac topic ipa help hbacrule - display help for a subtopic of hbac ipa help hbacrule-add - display help for a particular command https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/410
* Change FreeIPA license to GPLv3+Jakub Hrozek2010-12-201-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | The changes include: * Change license blobs in source files to mention GPLv3+ not GPLv2 only * Add GPLv3+ license text * Package COPYING not LICENSE as the license blobs (even the old ones) mention COPYING specifically, it is also more common, I think https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/239
* If any params marked alwaysask are provided then prompt for none of them.Rob Crittenden2010-12-091-1/+6
| | | | ticket 604
* Add labels for passwords, fix output of exceptions, fix passwd output.Rob Crittenden2010-12-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Passwords didn't have internationalizable labels. Exceptions that occured during required input weren't printed as unicode so weren't being translated properly. Don't use output_for_cli() directly in the passwd plugin, use output.Output. ticket 352
* Use better description for group names in help and always prompt for membersRob Crittenden2010-12-021-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When running <foo>-[add|remove]-member completely interactively it didn't prompt for managing membership, it just reported that 0 members were handled which was rather confusing. This will work via a shell if you want to echo too: $ echo "" | ipa group-add-member g1 This returns 0 members because nothing is read for users or group members. $ echo -e "g1\nadmin\n" | ipa group-add-member This adds the user admin to the group g1. It adds it as a user because user membership is prompted for first. ticket 415
* Prompt correctly for required Password params.Pavel Zuna2010-11-301-10/+13
