Command structure

[rumpelsepp]

I worked a bit on #9 and reached a blocker. Gallia is going to become a framework which is not limited to uds only. Therefore, it make sense to structure the CLI interface better. The challenge is to create a somehow self describing CLI interface which is easy to remember and easy to use.

I had a few ideas for structuring the commands. The structure of the code base could follow this accordingly. Personally, I think “Subcommands grouped by operation” is cool.

Subcommands grouped by service

• gallia
  • uds
    • scan
      • identifiers
    • discover
    • primitive
      • dtc
      • read-data-by-identifier
  • xcp
    • discover
  • dlt
    • discover

Examples

$ gallia uds scan identifiers
$ gallia xcp discover
$ gallia uds primitives dtc

Subcommands grouped by operation

• gallia
  • scan
    • uds
      • identifiers
  • discover
    • xcp
    • uds
    • dlt
  • primitives
    • uds
      • dtc
      • read-data-by-identifier

Examples

$ gallia scan uds identifiers
$ gallia discover xcp
$ gallia primitives uds dtc

No subcommands grouped by prefix

• gallia

  • dlt-discover
  • uds-discover
  • uds-primitives-dtc
  • uds-primitives-read-data-by-identifier
  • uds-scan-identifiers
  • xcp-discover

Examples

$ gallia uds-scan-identifiers
$ gallia xcp-discover
$ gallia uds-primitives-dtc
