version

Lists EM CLI verb versions or the EM CLI client version.

Format

emcli version
    [-verb_name=<verb_name_filter>]
    [-exact_match]
    [-noheader]
    [-script | -format=
               [name:"pretty|script|csv"];
               [column_separator:"column_sep_string"];
               [row_separator:"row_sep_string"];
    ]

[ ]  indicates that the parameter is optional

Options

• verb_name

  Verb name filter. Selects matching EM CLI verb names. When you specify this , an output table shows the version for each verb whose name matches <verb_name_filter>. The EM CLI client version is displayed when you do not specify this option.

  Verb filters use regular expression pattern matching unless you specify -exact_match. A zero-length filter matches everything.

  Note:

  For Unix csh, use single quotes around a filter value containing '$' .

• exact_match

  Uses exact matching for filters.

• noheader

  Displays tabular information without column headers.

• script

  This is equivalent to -format="name:script".

• format

  Format specification (default is -format="name:pretty").

  • format="name:pretty" prints the output table in a readable format not intended to be parsed by scripts.

  • format="name:script" sets the default column separator to a tab and the default row separator to a newline. The column and row separator strings can be specified to change these defaults.

  • format="name:csv" sets the column separator to a comma and the row separator to a newline.

  • format=column_separator:"column_sep_string" column-separates the verb output by <column_sep_string>. Rows are separated by the newline character.

  • row_separator:"row_sep_string" row-separates the verb output by <row_sep_string>. Rows are separated by the tab character.

Output Columns

Verb, Version (when -verb_name is specified)

Examples

Example 1

This example shows the version for all verbs with names that contain a substring matching "elp" or with names that begin with "ver" or "lo", contains "i", and ends with "n:"

emcli version -verb_name="elp|^(ver|lo).*i.*n$"

Example 2

This example shows the version for all verbs with names that exactly match the string "setup." Alternatively, you could use the -exact_match .

emcli version -verb_name="^setup$"
