Hi, this adds the possibility to select the output for --machine-readable in OCaml tools. The possible choices are: * --machine-readable: to stdout, like before * --machine-readable=file:name-of-file: to the specified file * --machine-readable=stream:stdout: explicitly to stdout * --machine-readable=stream:stderr: explicitly to stderr This makes it possible to add additional output for

v1 -> v2: - Further fixes to Getopt int parsing. - Completed the L/S changes. - Fixed the test suite so it passes now. Also we don't need the special-case tests for 64 bit arch. Rich.

v3 -> v4: - Pushed the first patch upstream since it was ACKed. - Prevent use of M except for the special virt-v2v options. - Sort the options after added --help etc. - Make corresponding fixes to the tests. Rich.

v2 -> v3: - Add M variant and test it. Rich.

Hi, the following series adds a --key option in the majority of tools: this makes it possible to pass LUKS credentials programmatically, avoid the need to manually input them, or unsafely pass them via stdin. Thanks, Pino Toscano (2): mltools: create a cmdline_options struct Introduce a --key option in tools that accept keys builder/cmdline.ml | 2 +-

The second patch is obviously not complete yet - for discussion only. Rich.

Enhance the output in machine parseable mode, by outputting all the messages of OCaml tools as JSON to the machine parseable stream. Related, although not strictly needed for this (and thus can be split if requested), is the addition of the fd format for the machine readable stream. Changes from v1: - use Obj.magic to convert int -> Unix.file_descr - add tests Pino Toscano (4):

On error, point also to the man page of the current tool in addition to '$TOOL --help'. --- mllib/getopt-c.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/mllib/getopt-c.c b/mllib/getopt-c.c index bf40f91..3efd5d3 100644 --- a/mllib/getopt-c.c +++ b/mllib/getopt-c.c @@ -69,8 +69,8 @@ cleanup_option_list (void *ptr) static void __attribute__((noreturn))

Add a new Getopt module to mllib, to parse command line arguments with handlers close to the ones used with Arg, but using getopt(3) (actually getopt_long_only) to do the real parsing. This allow us to provide options for OCaml tools with a syntax similar to the C tools, and use the additional features getopt offers and Arg does not. Do a single-step conversion of Common_utils and all the OCaml

Miscellaneous refactoring, but the main one is to rename mllib/ as common/mltools/ Rich.

I rethought this again, as I think that it's a dangerous assumption to bake qemu-img measure output into our API. This patch series runs qemu-img measure behind the scenes, but then parses the output and sums it to a single number which we print. Doing that required a bit of reworking, moving the Jansson [JSON parser] bindings from virt-builder into the common directory and a couple of other

Add an optional argument for --machine-readable to select the output, adding a new function to specifically write data to that output stream. The possible choices are: * --machine-readable: to stdout, like before * --machine-readable=file:name-of-file: to the specified file * --machine-readable=stream:stdout: explicitly to stdout * --machine-readable=stream:stderr: explicitly to stderr Adapt all

This adds --print-target. In addition, v2 provides a machine-readable version (in JSON format). All of the record -> JSON boilerplate in this patch could be eliminated if we moved the baseline to OCaml 4.02. Rich.
