Martin Choma created WFLY-8191: ---------------------------------- Summary: CS tool, review usage documentation Key: WFLY-8191 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-8191 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: Security Reporter: Martin Choma Assignee: Darran Lofthouse Priority: Critical Current usage output {code} usage: java -jar wildfly-elytron-tool.jar credential-store <sub-command> <options> -a <arg> | -e <arg> | -h | -r <arg> | -v [-c] [-f] [-i <arg>] [-l <arg>] [-p <arg>] [-s <arg>] [-t <arg>] [-u <arg>] [-x <arg>] -a,--add <arg> Add new alias to the credential store -c,--create Create credential store [true/false] -e,--exists <arg> Check if alias exists within the credential store -f,--summary Print summary, especially command how to create this credential store -h,--help Get help with usage of this command -i,--iteration <arg> Iteration count for for final masked password of the credential store -l,--location <arg> Location of credential store storage file -p,--password <arg> Password for credential store -r,--remove <arg> Remove alias from the credential store -s,--salt <arg> Salt to apply for final masked password of the credential store -t,--type <arg> Credential store type -u,--uri <arg> Configuration URI for credential store -v,--aliases Display all aliases -x,--secret <arg> Password credential value {code} IMO suffers with these issues: - it introduce misleading <sub-command> placeholder. It is not used now. It is prepared for future needs. Remove it please. - it is not obvious which options are required in conjuction with e.g. --add option - use GNU usage syntax. e.g. [] instead of <> - sometimes it will be more useful to replace <arg> with some meaningful name, e.g. --add alias I suggest something like {code} java -jar wildfly-elytron-tool.jar credential-store required_option [options] java -jar wildfly-elytron-tool.jar credential-store --add alias -u arg ... [-c] ... java -jar wildfly-elytron-tool.jar credential-store --remove alias -u arg [-c] ... ... One of these is required -a,--add alias Add new alias to the credential store -e,--exists alias Check if alias exists within the credential store -h,--help Get help with usage of this command -r,--remove alias Remove alias from the credential store -v,--aliases Display all aliases Options -c,--create Create credential store [true/false] -f,--summary Print summary, especially command how to create this credential store -i,--iteration count Iteration count for for final masked password of the credential store -l,--location file Location of credential store storage file -p,--password store_password Password for credential store -s,--salt arg Salt to apply for final masked password of the credential store -t,--type arg Credential store type -u,--uri arg Configuration URI for credential store -x,--secret value Password credential value {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.2.3#72005)
