Moved to Discussion #434 - json like structure for commands

[arunkumar413]

Describe the solution you'd like?

Hi Team,

Most of the Linux commands don't have a common structure. Each command has its own options and flags. I recommend a JSON like structure for the commands and their options.

For example:

{
    commandName: "ls",
    options: {
      all: true,
      author: true,
      humanReadable: true,
      recursive: true
    }
  }

This JSON like structure should be parsed into the regular Linux commands and executed. We'll have a terminal feature like text editor that takes JSON input, interprets the JSON like structure into regular commands and outputs the result.

This feature would make the documentation, linting, code completion easier. Each command option would be self explanatory and easier to understand.

Note: This wont be a complete replace of the existing command line but just an addition to the existing command line which takes a JSON structure as a command.

We're working on this right! We have some exciting progress updates to share soon. I see that you commented on the discussion, we're actually going to move this there because that's the link we're going to be sending people who have questions and I'd like them to see your proposal.
