Better warning on bad input

[tristen]

If the path to a file is incorrect the response from the CLI prints out a long stack trace:

And ends with:

Could the CLI validate the input argument first and display a clearer message to the user

I am getting the same error message and I am having a hard time finding what is going on, I get the same no matter how I write the file name and path. @tristen how did you manage to solve it?

[tristen]

@robertomoreu add-source is now deprecated! Perhaps try upload-source?

[robertomoreu]

@tristen upload-source is the one I am using, but it prints the same message

[tristen]

@robertomoreu If you're confident the right path is being provided, perhaps confirm the file content is valid line-delimited JSON?

[robertomoreu]

Hey @tristen , Solved ! I was always trying to use the relative path, using the absolute path solved it. Thanks for your help, it got me to the solution!

I am having this problem even while using absolute path.
tilesets upload-source oceandatafoundation wod-chlorophyll /home/henrik/.../chlorophyll
returns

ValueError: could not convert string to float: '/home/henrik/.../chlorophyll'

Even though
ls /home/henrik/.../chlorophyll
returns
2010.geojson 2012.geojson 2014.geojson 2016.geojson 2018.geojson 2020.geojson 2011.geojson 2013.geojson 2015.geojson 2017.geojson 2019.geojson recipe.json

Relative path has the same problem.

EDIT: This is a problem when specifying a directory of files. It works when I upload one at a time.
