Feature request: Add pull-code, pull-db and pull-files commands for the Pantheon recipe

[uberhacker]

Can something like the following eventually become standard in every Pantheon recipe?

tooling:
  pull-code:
    service: appserver
    cmd: '/helpers/pull.sh --code=dev --database=none --files=none'
  pull-db:
    service: appserver
    cmd: '/helpers/pull.sh --code=none --database=dev --files=none'
  pull-files:
    service: appserver
    cmd: '/helpers/pull.sh --code=none --database=none --files=dev'

I imagine you could also add an argument for the environment. Something like: lando pull-db live.

I'm a big fan of convenient aliases, but how are these different from just running lando pull --code=none --database=live --files=none, besides being slightly shorter? I do think a simple alias for pulling DB vs files is useful, but running lando pull is the shortest command to run across the board -- if we're going for short command length.

How/What else can these alias additions [do to] improve our experience?

@ccharlton: It's all about convenience and less typing. I don't know about you but I have trouble remembering all the switch options and typing all that out to download just the database is a bit painful. You can also just run lando pull and go through all the prompts but I find myself hitting the arrow key a ton to find the options I need. With all that said, I actually find it "easier" and definitely "faster" to simply download the database backup from the Pantheon dashboard and then run lando db-import <backup...> to upload into Lando. All these ways definitely need tweaked to improve the user experience.

Sounds like a Lando plugin! 💃

@uberhacker i think what you want to do is exactly what you did in the opening comment here eg just define them yourself in tooling
