add common commands to console

I'm facing a huge new installation and I would like to perform some tasks from command line.

With 'bin/console' I can perform some basic ones (create users) but I'm missing a lot that would save me a lot of time:

- Modify users (change name, telephone, location...)
- Create groups
- Modify groups (assign users to them)
- Create entities
- Modify entities (assign users to them)
- Modify tickets (assign users and groups to them)

Is there any plan to add this to console?

I know I can perform some additional actions with API, so maybe providing examples for these common tasks would be enough for me.

Re: add common commands to console

The goal of the CLI is to provide admin-type commands, not let you interact with GLPI more generally.

The API documentation can be found at "YOUR_GLPI/apirest.php"

The API endpoints are generic. So, you can get a User at "/apirest.php/User/USER_ID" and see the fields available for example and know what is needed for creating/updating users.

Ok, I understand.

I can see some examples in apirest.md , can you please provide some more examples related to those tasks I mentioned?
