Description Peter Ondrejka 2018-11-07 08:24:39 UTC
Description of problem:

runninng:

hammer -v -u admin -p changeme --output=csv organization list --help --per-page="10000"

ends with Error: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass

Seemingly this is influenced by the position of --output=csv argument, moving it to the end mitigates the issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.5 snap 2

Good catch Nikhil, they're dupes. I didn't spot it early enough and happened to clone the other issue - I'm sorry for that. I'm going to close this one for a bit more complete description of the other.

Peter, just for you to know: Hammer ignores any parameter that comes after --help or -h. Not best approach but it's a feature of the framework that we use (Clamp). Hence moving --output=csv to the end "mitigates" the issue.
