[Gluster-devel] Proposal for third party sub commands for Gluster CLI

[Aravinda]

Hi,

As many of you aware, git supports external subcommand support which
enables users to extend the functionality around git.

Create a shell script "git-hello" as below and place it anywhere in
system(should be available in $PATH)

     #!/bin/bash
     echo "Hello World"

Make this script executable, (chmod +x /usr/local/bin/git-hello)

This can be executed as `git-hello` or `git hello` (Other example is
git-review tool, can be executed as git-review or git review)

Similarly we can have sub command support for Gluster CLI. If any
script/binary available in PATH env with the name gluster-<CMD> can be
executed as `gluster <CMD>`

Let me know what you guys think about this feature. I am also planning
to add this feature to
glustertool(https://github.com/gluster/glustertool)
