v3.0.0

This is a major release of the CLI and has several backwards incompatible changes. See the Backwards Incompatible Changes list below.

Bugfixes:

• Fix a bug in which some error outputs could be sent to stdout

Enhancements:

• globus endpoint show now includes the description field. Formatting of the description may wrap
• globus session update now supports domains for session_required_single_domain requirements
• globus-cli now uses more advanced token storage, and does not use ~/.globus.cfg. A globus login with this version will invalidate any CLI tokens found in ~/.globus.cfg
  • Note: this version of the CLI will not modify the ~/.globus.cfg file, only invalidate CLI version 2 tokens. After the upgrade, you may remove this file if you are not using it for other purposes.
• globus-cli now supports use of the GLOBUS_PROFILE environment variable, which lets users name sets of credentials and switch between accounts
• globus-cli commands can now direct the user to login to a specific Globus Connect Server v5 Endpoint. When the requirements for running a command are not met, a message with the correct login command will be shown.
• A new environment variable, GLOBUS_CLI_INTERACTIVE can be used to instruct the CLI to behave as though it is or is not in an interactive shell. Set GLOBUS_CLI_INTERACTIVE=0 to force non-interactive behavior, and GLOBUS_CLI_INTERACTIVE=1 to force interactive behavior
• Add new collection-related commands for Mapped and Guest Collections
  • globus collection list
  • globus collection show
  • globus collection update
  • globus collection delete
• globus endpoint ... and globus collection ... commands may exit with an error instructing the user to use a corresponding command when globus endpoint commands are used on collections or globus collection commands are used on non-collection endpoint types
• Add new globus group list command for listing your group memberships

Backwards Incompatible Changes:

• Remove the --version flag. Use globus version instead
• globus endpoint server add now takes the server as a positional argument, not a required option
• globus rename has changed to take the endpoint ID once and two separate paths, instead of two endpoint:path arguments which require the endpoint ID to match
• Remove the globus config commands
• globus transfer --batch and globus delete --batch now accept filenames to specify batches. To use stdin (as in v2), pass a single dash for the filename, as in --batch -
• Two new exit statuses, in addition to 0, 1, and 2, are now used by the CLI to indicate specific error conditions
  • An exit(3) is used whenever the type of an object does not match the expectations of a command. For example, globus collection list on a Collection is incorrect -- that command should be used on Endpoints
  • An exit(4) is used whenever the authentication or authorization requirements of a command are not met. For example, if your session does not satisfy the authentication_timeout for an HA endpoint.
