`cf cups -p` vs `cf uups -p`

[Patrick Mueller]

`cf cups` == `cf create-user-provided-service`

`cf uups` == `cf update-user-provided-service`

First off - thanks for the new `cf uups` command.  It may be potentially nicer than deleting/re-creating user-provided services when the property needs to change - I've not used it in anger yet, so ... who can say. :-)

One thing that's different between cups and uups is that with cups I can pass a list of property names in with the `-p` option, but with uups I can ONLY pass a string of JSON.   I find the "pass a property list" style option is super easy - and so I think it probably makes sense for uups as well.  Presumably you could pass new properties, or replace the value of existing properties.

Then we need one more thing -  `cf ups` == `cf user-provided-service` - to get the property values of existing user-provided services printed to stdout.  The "command naming standard" seems to be that "view"-ish functions have no verb prepended, otherwise I would have suggested "vups - view-user-provided-service".

Today I find myself binding a ups to a kinda dummy app I have lying around, then doing a `cf env` on it - but is obviously more work than I'd like to do.

Hi Patrick:

1.  `cf uups` w/non-json list = good point = https://www.pivotaltracker.com/story/show/79049274

2.  `cf ups` can be accomplished via `cf services`

○ → cf services

...

name                              service         plan   bound apps

broken-service                    user-provided

broken-service2                   user-provided

broken-service3                   user-provided

some-fake-user-service-instance   user-provided

working-service                   user-provided

Hope this helps

Greg

My thought on `cf ups` was to print the credentials object of the specified service.  If I had done a

    cf cups my-service -p url

then when I did 

    cf ups my-service

I'd see something like:

    url: <whatever I entered in the `cf cups` command>
