Guys, I just submitted following patch which fixes long standing issue in how cli scripts are executed.
https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/36101 Problem was that there was no way to execute CLIs which have optional arguments. I.e. “show version” and “show version verbose”. CLI parser was passing whole contents up to the EOF to each CLI handler, and because he eats all whitespaces there was no way to know if current unformat input points to the rest of the line or to the beginning of the new line. In this patch i changed that behaviour so CLI gets only one line of input. Also I changed unformat_input function so it recognises backslash before newline as way to pass multiline data to cli handler. As a result, there is no need for calling unformat_line in each cli handler, and still there is a way to specify multiline CLIs. i.e. show version \ verbose or: packet-generator new { \ name x \ limit 5 \ size 128-128 \ interface local0 \ node null-node \ data { \ incrementing 30 \ } \ } Hope nobody have issues with this change, but let me know if I’m wrong… — Damjan
