server list: 'Host' is invalid column name when --long is used

[Chris Snell]

If i'm running a 'server list' with the --long option chosen, I should be able to select those additional columns with the [-c COLUMN] parameter. In other words, I want to be able to do this:

% openstack server list --long -c Name,Host

On second thought, I think that Host should be available as an optional displayed column regardless of whether --long is specified.

I think this might be user error.

$ openstack server list --long -c Host -c Name
+-----------+--------+
| Name | Host |
+-----------+--------+
| das_cloud | ubuntu |
+-----------+--------+

regarding the second questions, having "host" in the --long output, makes it by nature optional.

OK, seems to be working now with the double -c params. However, it doesn't
seem to work if --long is not specified before -c. That's contrary to the
usage help that's displayed to the user.

Right, "c" should only work if the column is going to appear:

$ openstack server list -c Name
+-----------+
| Name |
+-----------+
| das_cloud |
+-----------+

$ openstack server list -c Host
No recognized column names in ['Host']

$ openstack server list -c Host --long
+--------+
| Host |
+--------+
| ubuntu |
+--------+
