Utilizing Cloudbreak's CLI

[#1]

Hi all, I'm trying to understand how to properly use cloudbreak's CLI. My goal is to non-interactively start a hadoop cluster through a cron job. The documentation mentions cbd util cloudbreak-shell-quiet for non interactive shell access, but everytime I run it, it just dumps me into a interactive shell.

I want to do something like this:

cbd util cloudbreak-shell-quiet 'stack start --id 64'

What's the right way to do this?

You can do such things like this: cbd util cloudbreak-shell-quiet <<< "credential delete --id 12". You can send multiple lines as well as the cluster creation consists of multiple commands:

cbd util cloudbreak-shell-quiet <<EOF

stack list

stack list

more commands...

EOF
