[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-721) Create a ModelNode to CLI call transformation facility

[Brian Stansberry (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-721?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13414532#comment-13414532 ] 

Brian Stansberry commented on WFCORE-721:
-----------------------------------------

Possibly the ModelNode to CLI transformation could deal with a few well known commands as well. For example 

{code}
{ "operation" => "reload"}
{code}

becomes the CLI "reload" command instead of the "/:reload"  low level operation.

Same thing with shutdown.

I'm not suggesting any broadly scoped DMR to high-level-command facility. This is really about the few operations that result in breaking the CLI's connection to the server. The high level CLI commands deal with that properly.

> Add a transformation function that can convert a ModelNode representation of an operation into a CLI low level operation. In the case of a composite operation, this should result in a CLI batch command with multiple CLI low level operations.
> This capability involves introducing a transformation API (ModelNodeTransformer?), and perhaps an SPI to support pluggable transformation algorithms. 
> Future transformations might be:
> - Java code - Transformation of a ModelNode based management operation into Java code using the jboss-dmr API to build a ModelNode and use the  ModelController client API
> - Python code - Transformation of a ModelNode based management operation into Python code that builds a JSON representation of the model node and some demo code calling an HTTP API in python to make the invocation
> - Curl code - Transformation of a ModelNode based management operation into a curl statement(s) that can be cut and paste into a console
> - XHR JS code - Transformation of a ModelNode based management operation into JS XHR calls
> This functionality belongs in a new library, and once completed should be directly ported to HAL(console) as a prototype (this would enable HAL to record and display operations, CLI calls, or even code of the work performance based on user selection)
