standardize yb-ctl and yb-docker-ctl option passing #2440

Open schoudhury opened 5 years ago

schoudhury commented 5 years ago

yb-ctl option passing is done differently than yb-docker-ctl. For example ./bin/yb-ctl create --rf 3 does not work but ./yb-docker-ctl create --rf 3 works.

We should standardize both these CLIs to only way of option passing and that way should be the commonly-used/industry-default way.

Will do more research on what other popular CLIs like kubectl do and update this issue.

We would like to use kubectl as the standard here. With that in mind kubectl describe --help works but kubectl --help describe does not. This means our yb-ctl implementation has to be changed to match that of yb-docker-ctl.
