Bug 891722

Andrew, 

For this bug, document this option in the config file (~/.rhevmshellrc):

no_paging = True

Basically, explain how this enables/disables paging results.

- Dan

Dan, 

I was looking through the CLI guide, and couldn't find any mention of that config file. 

Do you think this means adding a reference topic like:

Editing the RHEVM CLI configuration file [XXXX]

- little explanation of the configuration file
- three column table listing all of the values you can set in one column, their value types (boolean, string, etc) and descriptions of them in the third one?
- one <entry> in the table is no_paging, boolean, explanation 

Or am I making a mountain out of a molehill?

Sure that works... I'd even just go with a variablelist and not worry so much about value types

Andrew, 

You can follow up on what other things you can change from this config file by setting a need info on michael pasternak.

Hi Michael,

Could you please send me a list of brief descriptions for these variables found in the .rhevmshellrc config file?

We'd like to include this information in the CLI guide for 3.2

url = ""
username = ""
password = ""
insecure = True|False (turns off CA cert. requirement)
no_paging = True|False (disables pagination in the shell)
filter = True|False (user can fetch objects according his                    
                     permissions, users have admin role can switch filtering off)
timeout = -1 (request timeout)

Thanks for that, Michael.
Topic has been created with a variable table as suggested. Will be included in next build.

Topic created with variable list. Can be viewed at:
http://documentation-devel.engineering.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.2/html-single/Command_Line_Shell_Guide/index.html#rhevmshellrc_Configuration

refactoring configuration value to the "autopage = True|False" under [cli] section

Sorry Michael, I don't quite follow.

Do you mean perhaps that the 'no_paging = True|False' variable in the .rhevmshellrc is being changed to 'autopage = True|False' ??

exactly (previously it was known to upstream community as 'autopage'),

thanks.

Groovy. Thanks Michael. Table has been updated.
