Make jobs.list_jobs show the same format for remote job-caches as for local cache

[bemeyert]

Hi all,

It would be very useful to have the same format in jobs.list_jobs for all returners. Under version 2014.7.5 the output of jobs.list_jobs with a local job-cache looks like this:

[root@salt salt]# salt-run jobs.list_jobs
20150428110219511091:
----------
Arguments:
    - fuba.projects.project
Function:
    state.sls
StartTime:
    2015, Apr 28 11:02:19.511091
Target:
    fuba-lamp-dev-01.office.com
Target-type:
    glob
User:
    root

and the output with Redis or MySQL as returner just shows the JIDs:

[root@salt salt]# salt-run jobs.list_jobs
- 20150428145221306767
- 20150428145715408562

One can see that the output with the local cache is much more useful.

Cheers

Agreed. There are a number of places that are not as standardized as they should be with regards to returners. Thanks for filing this!

@whiteinge According to Lothiraldan/saltpad#57 (comment) I thought I add you to this issue.

[whiteinge]

Thank you. I indeed missed this one.

Bumping the severity because API changes like this will break people's tools that use Salt programatically via Python or via salt-api.
