Huawei Cloud Services Count

Overview

This Skill queries how many Huawei Cloud services are available through the KooCLI offline metadata cache. It reads the local services_en.json file downloaded by hcloud meta download, parses the service entries, and returns the total count. No network API calls are needed after the initial metadata download.

Use case: Quickly determine how many cloud services Huawei Cloud offers at a glance, useful for reporting, documentation, or capacity awareness.

Prerequisites

1. KooCLI (hcloud) installed and configured with valid AK/SK credentials
2. Python 3.6+ available for JSON parsing
3. KooCLI offline metadata must be downloaded at least once (hcloud meta download)

Workflow

1. Refresh metadata → hcloud meta download
2. Parse local JSON → Read ~/.hcloud/metaRepo/services_en.json
3. Count entries → Count the items in the services array
4. Output → Print the total number of services

Core Commands

Refresh metadata and count services

Run the following command to refresh the offline metadata and output the total service count:

echo "y" | hcloud meta download && python3 -c "
import json
import os

meta_path = os.path.expanduser('~/.hcloud/metaRepo/services_en.json')
with open(meta_path) as f:
    data = json.load(f)

items = data.get('items', [])
seen = set()
unique_count = 0
for item in items:
    text = item['Service']['Text']
    if text not in seen:
        seen.add(text)
        unique_count += 1

print(f'Huawei Cloud Services Count: {len(items)} total entries, {unique_count} unique services')
"

Count services only (skip download if metadata is recent)

If metadata was already downloaded recently, you can skip the download step:

python3 -c "
import json, os
meta_path = os.path.expanduser('~/.hcloud/metaRepo/services_en.json')
with open(meta_path) as f:
    data = json.load(f)
items = data.get('items', [])
print(f'Huawei Cloud Services Count: {len(items)}')
"

KooCLI Command Format Standard

hcloud meta download

• Service: Not applicable — meta is a KooCLI system command, not a service-specific command
• Operation: download — lower case (system operation)
• Confirmation: Pipe echo "y" | to auto-confirm the overwrite prompt
