Allow meroxa resources list --types
to automatically open the resource catalog on the dashboard
#669
Comments
@jayjayjpg @justmisosoup I saw the discussion in the other ticket, but thought it would be appropriate to respond here. One reason to not forego listing the types in the CLI in favor of opening in the browser, but maybe in addition to that with something like a --open flag, is that there is nowhere else in the CLI to discover all of the available resource types. There's some CLI usage documentation, but we don't always remember to update those examples. The Meroxa docs are better at being complete, but that involves having to click away from the CLI. |
@janelletavares That's also a good point, thank you for calling this out as well! |
@janelletavares Thank you for the insight here. Is the recommendation to double our efforts then? My only follow up question might be, at what point does the list no longer provide value to the customer within the context of the CLI? It makes me wonder if there may be a better way to solve this problem while still giving visibility without requiring the customer to click away from the CLI. I don't think this will be a problem we solve now, but more--something up for consideration in the future as our list of supported resources grows. I am going to put this issue in the "Not Doing" column for now. cc: @jayjayjpg |
@justmisosoup As far as I can tell, the current (and likely future) purpose of the CLI command for listing resource types would be, that the user can look up the Whenever a resource is created on the CLI, the user needs to provide the internal name of the resource-type to the meroxa resources create --type bigquery This
It is not possible for the user to find the required If we want users to be able to use the CLI to create resources and to do so without having to defer to the docs when running Let me know what your thoughts are on this UX given this context and what would make most sense. @janelletavares may also have more context on what would be needed here if we do want to update the way |
@justmisosoup @janelletavares Nevermind my previous comment, I just read the comment thread again and noticed that Janelle already said exactly this a few days ago: #669 (comment) I'll see myself out 🙈 |
@justmisosoup I think the list can be quite long that's printed by the CLI and still be a good experience. scrolling in the dashboard is expected, and scrolling in the CLI isn't a burden. |
Current
When a user runs
meroxa resources list --types
in the CLI today, the see the following output in their terminal:Expected
A consideration for the future: The resource-types list will continue to grow and adapt. We may just want
meroxa resources list ---types
to open up the resource dashboard view with the connector roadmap.See also the previous discussion here
