enhance `--avail-easyconfig-params` to also accept a (single) easyconfig from which to derive the easyblock
trafficstars
Currently, -a, --avail-easyconfig-params can either be used:
- on its own, for a list of generic easyconfig parameters
- with
-e, --easyblockto also list custom easyconfig parameters specific to a particular easyblock
I think it would be intuitive to either enhance --avail-easyconfig-params, or add another option, which derives the easyblock to use from a specific easyconfig. For example, the output of the following would be identical:
eb -a -e EB_GCC
eb -a GCCcore-12.3.0.eb
As an aside, it might also be nice to be able to request a list of only the custom parameters, with e.g. --avail-easyconfig-params=custom
