Project description

psquared_client project

The psquared_client project container both the psquared_client package that provides a python interface to a PSqaured server, and the pp-cli command line interface that uses that package to all copmmand line access to the server.

pp-cli executable

More details about the pp-cli executable can be found using its help option

pp-cli -h

but here are some examples of retrieving information. (Note: unless you are using the default local PSquared server you will need to the the environmental variable PP_APPLICATION to point the server you want to use.)

  • To list the currently active configurations

    pp-cli
    
  • To list the known versions of a given configuration

    pp-cli -i <configuration>
    
  • To display the current state of one or more items for a configuration/version.

    pp-cli -i -V <version> <configuration> item ...
    
  • To display the history of one or more items for a configuration/version.

    pp-cli -H -V <version> <configuration> item ...
    
  • As an alternate, the list of items to be acted upon can be supplied in a file with one item per line. Thus the following displays the current state of a set of items listed in a file for a configuration/version.

    pp-cli -i -f <file> -V <version> <configuration>
    

Here are some examples of commands that affect the state of PSquared. (Note: you may need an authorized certificate to execute these types of commands.)

  • To submit one or more items for processing with a configuration/version.

    pp-cli -i -s -V <version> <configuration> item ...
    
  • To resolve the failure of one or more items for a configuration/version.

    pp-cli -i --resolve -V <version> <configuration> item ...
    

    The other transitions, submit, cancel, reset, 'abandonandrecover` have similar options.
