Hello! Today is an exciting day where I get to ask everyone for their feedback on our new command line tools. The design document related to "why" is found here: http://port389.org/docs/389ds/design/dsadm-dsconf.html These are very new, and have been tested by the team and some others for some time. This is a departure from our classic perl scripts into a well integrated set of complete cli management tools for 389 Directory Server. All tools are written in python, and I would really appreciate feedback on these and their ease of use. They are not 100% able to manage the server yet (many plugins are still missing) however, the core framework is in place, and many common tasks are possible. These can be used on el7/f27 by enabling the copr repo: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/firstyear/ds/ For f27 this is: dnf copr enable firstyear/ds dnf install 389-ds-base Then you can follow the steps here: http://port389.org/docs/389ds/design/dsadm-dsconf.html#example-usage As well, exploration of the tools would be great (they have extensive help guides with --help). If you find there are tasks you *want* to be able to achieve, let me know of these also. Thank you and looking forward to your feedback. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- WARNING: This package is a pre-release version of 389 Directory Server, and should not be used for production, only for the purposes of testing and evaluation. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Sincerely, William Brown Software Engineer Red Hat, Australia/Brisbane _______________________________________________ 389-devel mailing list -- 389-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to 389-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
