@Sagar Shimpi, nice article! Are there any prebuilt jars (or rpm/tar's) ready to be installed? There are many places where I cannot install git and gradle, but could show up Ambari shell as a kind of "coming soon" add-on for Ambari. Tnx.

I see that there are no ready jars available on internet for ambari shell. But what the best way we can do is to build/compile the ambari-shell code on our test/local environment and use the jar directly at other places. You do no need to compile it everytime.

Ever i can pass you the jar on email and you can directly test with below command in your environment...Just need to ensure the OS and java version should be same.

# java -jar /opt/ambari-shell/build/libs/ambari-shell-0.1.DEV.jar --ambari.server=localhost --ambari.port=8080 --ambari.user=admin --ambari.password=admin

use --ambari.host and not --ambari.server

I have merged the outstanding pull requests from the sequenceiq repo into mine.

Check it out here: https://github.com/philippeback/ambari-shell

There is a latest-snap.sh file in the repo. Running it will fetch a version.
