Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Fred van Zwieten 2019-04-08 12:46:59 UTC
Description of problem:
When composing an image using the compose-cli, the request is put in the queue. When using composer-cli in a scripted use-case (or ansible) one would like to wait until the image has been composed before continuing in the script.

Suggestion: composer-cli compose start <blueprint> --wait

The composer-cli utility really isn't meant to be used from scripts. The ui isn't stable and may change at any time, and the output is for humans, not scripts (despite having the --json option which was more for debugging than anything).

If you are scripting use of the API you should really talk to the socket directly, not call composer-cli. It's fairly easy to do using python.

That being said, I can see a --wait option being useful for humans, so I'll add it to the list.

Needs to be done upstream first: https://github.com/weldr/lorax/issues/685
