cli: add 'help' for second level commands (bgo #698237) (rh #1034119)

2014-01-09T09:14:03+00:00

In addition to 'nmcli connection help', you can now use:
nmcli con up help
nmcli con down help
nmcli dev wifi help
etc.

The help option can also be in the form of --help/-h, or even shortened.

cli: allow specifying 'group.name' syntax for '--fields'

2013-12-17T12:51:34+00:00

and use it for 'nmcli device show'.

This allows filtering output not only for whole groups, but also for individual
fields in commands that print data in groups (sections).

Example:
$ nmcli -f general.device,general.driver,ipv4,ipv6.address device show eth0
GENERAL.DEVICE:                         eth0
GENERAL.DRIVER:                         e1000e
IP4.ADDRESS[1]:                         ip = 10.0.5.228/23, gw = 10.0.5.254
IP4.ADDRESS[2]:                         ip = 5.5.5.5/32, gw = 5.5.5.1
IP4.DNS[1]:                             192.168.122.1
IP4.DNS[2]:                             8.8.8.8
IP4.DOMAIN[1]:                          mycompany.com

cli: add support for getting/setting hostname to nmcli (rh #1018510)

2013-11-13T11:19:51+00:00

cli: make command line parsing check for help option first

2013-11-11T14:27:45+00:00

Move the checks for nmc_arg_is_help to the beginning of the
checks for command matches.

Up to now, no command begins with 'h', so this has no behavioral
change whatsoever. But imagine a command that begins with 'h'
(for example `nmcli general hostname`), in that case `nmcli general h`
should still show the help, as users might be accustomed to this
abbreviation.

cli: clarify 'startup' property when NM is not running

2013-09-12T18:15:50+00:00

Wouldn't make a ton of sense to print "started" for the STARTING
property if NM wasn't running.

cli: fix build error due to possibly uninitialized variable

2013-09-12T18:13:09+00:00

cli: add STARTUP field for 'nmcli -f all general status'

2013-09-12T14:29:26+00:00

It says 'starting' when NM is in the process of startup (still activating
connections); 'started' when NM finished the startup.

cli: consolidate a code for connectivity check a bit

nmcli: special error message for access denied when SetLogging fails

2013-09-04T09:56:46+00:00

Setting the logging level fails for normal users due to missing dbus
permissions as configured in src/org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.conf.

In that case, nmcli simply fails showing the dbus error. This error
is however not very clear, so this commit shows a different error
text for the particular case of ACCESS_DENIED.
