This option is an alternative to --port|-p and takes precedence over it. This is meant to aid the switch from the legacy nodetool to the native one. Users of the legacy nodetool pass the port of JMX to --port. We need a way to provide both the JMX port (via --port) and also the REST API port, which only the native nodetool will interpret. So we add this new --rest-api-port, which when provided, overwrites the --port|-p option. To ensure the legacy nodeotol doesn't try to interpret this, this option can also be provided as -Dcom.scylladb.apiPort (which is substituted to --rest-api-port behind the scenes).
Front-end tests for nodetool
The tests in this directory exercise the nodetool client itself, mocking the API backend. This allows for testing all combinations of all supported options, and still keeping the tests quick.
The tests can be run against both the scylla-native nodetool (default), or the inherited, C*-based nodetool.
Run all tests against the scylla-native nodetool:
pytest --nodetool=scylla .
You can specify the path to the scylla binary with the --nodetool-path option. By default the tests will pick up the ScyllaDB executable, that is appropriate for the --mode option (defaults to dev).
Run all tests against the C* nodetool:
pytest --nodetool=cassandra .
Again, you can specify the path to the nodetool binary with --nodetool-path option. By default, <scylladb.git>/tools/java/bin/nodetool will be used.
When running the test against the java-nodeotol, you can specify the path to JMX with --jmx-path option. By default, <scylladb.git>/tools/jmx/scripts/scylla-jmx will be used.
If you add new tests, make sure to run all tess against both nodetool implementations, to avoid regressions. Note that CI/promotion will only run the tests against the scylla-native nodetool.
