Comment 1 Dan Macpherson 2013-01-08 01:55:48 UTC
Andrew, 

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

no_paging = True

Basically, explain how this enables/disables paging results.

- Dan

Comment 2 Tim Hildred 2013-01-09 06:08:25 UTC
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?

Comment 3 Dan Macpherson 2013-01-09 06:31:09 UTC
Sure that works... I'd even just go with a variablelist and not worry so much about value types

Comment 4 Tim Hildred 2013-01-09 06:40:19 UTC
Andrew, 

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

Comment 5 Andrew Burden 2013-01-16 04:48:37 UTC
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)

Comment 7 Andrew Burden 2013-01-18 02:18:52 UTC
Thanks for that, Michael.
Topic has been created with a variable table as suggested. Will be included in next build.

Comment 12 Michael Pasternak 2013-03-10 11:34:11 UTC
refactoring configuration value to the "autopage = True|False" under [cli] section

Comment 13 Andrew Burden 2013-03-12 06:44:09 UTC
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.
