Hi everyone,
the recent JSONRPC discussion and my last work around vdsClient reminded me that since a long time there it was vague plans for a vdsClient overhaul
or at least I haven't ever found a detailed plan :)
Since we have to add jsonrpc support anyway, it could be a good chance to bootstrap a new vdsClient, and incrementally enhance it as needs arises; the old vdsClient will not go away very soon, I guess.
At least, we can to put together a wishlist for a new vdsClient and add it to the wiki.
My one, so far: * client library package: we should have a program-friendly python package to access VDSM, in order * JSON for input: I's like to open logs, grab a line including a command and feed vdsClient with the very same line
Currently we don't see commands json input in the logs, but this can be a good idea (in debug mode). +1 JSON for output: current vdsClient format replies in a mix of text and json. We need to print the json returned from vdsm as is. Nir
