GSoC: Improve CloudMonkey user experience by enhancing autocompletion #10442

Description

@Pearl1594

Summary

Currently a lot of API parameters do not get auto-completed as cloudmonkey isn't able to deduce the probable values for those parameters based on the list APIs heuristics. A lot of these parameters are enums on CloudStack end and by finding a way to expose these and consume them on cloudmonkey side, we could improve the usability of the CLI greatly.

Benefits to CloudStack

  • Improved end user experience when using CLI
  • Reduce incorrect inputs

Deliverables

  • Expose enums and all other relevant information that can be used to enhance auto-completion of parameters on CloudStack end -
    • May require framework level changes and changes to APIs
  • Consume these exposed details on Cloudmonkey end
