Hi Guille,

I already had a quick chat with Damien Pollet about how commands should be structured. Based on his recommendations, my original list of commands will be re-worked to be subject-verb like (gittish, dockerish) style, since CLAP allows this and it will be more logically stucured around vm, image, image template subjects.

I also set up project with CLAP dependency, so I could experiment with commands, here: https://github.com/Bajger/PharoLauncher-cli

More to come hopefully soon (as soon, as I get full understanding how CLAP works).

Thanks for positive words!

David

Hi David,

I think this is cool :)

The things you describe are what I was having in mind too. The commands I use the most from the UI are:

• create/delete an image

• launch it

:)

About the design of the command line, have you checked Clap? It should provide support for parsing command line arguments and printing all the helps for you.

Also, If I can dream, I���d like that the launcher remembers the open images, so we could also introduce something like

launcher kill imageXXX

Thanks!!! G.

Hi all! I had a chat with Stephane regarding his inquiry about Pharo Launcher controlled from command-line interface (headless mode). I'd like to ask core Pharo developers to briefly review, if current list of commands seems to be ok. Document here: https://github.com/Bajger/Pharo-snippets/blob/master/pharoLauncherCmdLine-description.md https://github.com/Bajger/Pharo-snippets/blob/master/pharoLauncherCmdLine-description.md Some notes:

• List of commands is based on what can be executed on UI of Pharo Launcher

• there are some open questions, that you can try to comment on.

Also, please suggest, if I should move .md page to some more appropriate project (e.g. Pharo wiki?) Thanks for feedback! David
