Change to whatis code

[k.melillo]

Not sure if this can be (or should be) changed...  

gam whatis <email_address>

This should print out 

<email address> is a user

<email address> is a group

<email address> is an alias to user <user email address>

<email address> is an alias to group <group email address>

The command does do this, sort of... it spits out what it is not, until it hits a match, then also gives you info on that match...  for me, this is TMI....  if I had the shorter form, I could script a response.

It prints also prints the below if the entry doesn't exist.

ERROR: 404: Resource Not Found: userKey - userNotFound

Ross,

Thank you.  This is closer to what I need...  but NOINFO does not provide ENOUGH INFO!

I notice that when I choose an alias, it will say it is an alias, but not what the main user or group is.

Choose a Group email address

command: gam whatis gr...@domain.com noinfo

result: 

Group: gr...@domain.com

Choose an Alias to a Group email address

command: gam whatis gr...@alias.domain.com

result:

Group Alias: gr...@alias.domain.com

Choose an email account

command: gam whatis user...@domain.com

result:

User: user...@domain.com

Choose an alias to an email account

command: gam whatis user...@alias.domain.com

result:

User Alias: user...@alias.domain.com

While the noinfo does return a short response.  It does not give me the information needed, like if an alias, what is it on.  

noinfo really does mean noinfo, eh?  Is there a someinfo option?

[Ross Scroggs]

Kevin,

How about this?

$ gam whatis testuser1 noinfo

User: test...@rdschool.org

$ gam whatis testuser1alias noinfo

User Alias: testuse...@rdschool.org, User: test...@rdschool.org

$ gam whatis testgroup noinfo

Group: test...@rdschool.org

$ gam whatis testgroupalias noinfo

Group Alias: testgro...@rdschool.org, Group: test...@rdschool.org
