Does this PR modify CLI v6, CLI v7, or CLI v8?

  • v8

Description of the Change

A very common pattern is to have scripting like:

cf create-service-broker $SERVICE_BROKER_NAME $USERNAME $PASSWORD $APP_URL || cf update-service-broker $SERVICE_BROKER_NAME $USERNAME $PASSWORD $APP_URL

This is not ideal because:

  • it's a duplicated pattern that the CF CLI could handle better
  • it does not check the error type
  • it results in a failure being logged, when in fact there was none

Adding a --update-if-exists flag to the CF CLI allows the following
alternative:

cf create-service-broker $SERVICE_BROKER_NAME $USERNAME $PASSWORD $APP_URL --update-if-exists

Why Is This PR Valuable?

It gives script users a better and safer experience using the CF CLI

Why Should This Be In Core?

It's a change to a core command

Applicable Issues

None

How Urgent Is The Change?

It's likely that a lot of create-broker scripts will need to be updated for password hiding enabled in #2400. Although not strictly urgent, it makes sense for this to be in the same release.

Other Relevant Parties

None
