Petals CLI realizes the following use-cases.

h2. Petals CLI capabilities about script and shell usages

h3. Interactive console

Launching the Petals CLI with the following command line starts an interactive console with a prompt where the user can enter commands:
{code}
> ./petals-cli.sh -C

Type 'help' for help.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
petals-cli>
{code}

This command is wrapped by another shell: petals-cli-console.sh

h3. Execution of a Petals CLI command directly on the command line

Launching the Petals CLI with the following command line executes the command specified on the command line:
{code}
> ./petals-cli.sh -c <command> <command-args>
{code}

h3. Execution of a Petals script file

Launching the Petals CLI with the following command line executes commands of a Petals script:
{code}
> ./petals-cli.sh -f <filename>
{code}
{info}A Petals script is text file containing command supported by Petals CLI.{info}

h3. Execution of an inlined Petals script

Launching the Petals CLI with the following command line executes commands provided through the 'stdin':
{code}
> cat <filename> | ./petals-cli.sh -f -
> ./petals-cli.sh -f - << EOF
<command1> <command1-args>
<command2> <command2-args>
EOF
{code}

h2. Connection to a Petals node

h3. Connection options from the command line

All parameters needed to a JMX connection to a remote Petals node must be configurable on the command line as options:
{code}
> ./petals-cli.sh -h <host> -n <port> -u <user> -p <password> -c <command>
> ./petals-cli.sh -h <host> -n <port> -u <user> -p <password> -C
Conected on <host1>:<port1> with <user1>
petals-cli>
{code}

h3. Interacting with several Petals node without exiting Petals CLI

In interactive mode or script mode, we should be able to close a connection and open another one without leaving Petals CLI. This is done by commands 'close' and 'open'. If no arguments are set on command 'open', default values (localhost:7700, login=petals, pwd=petals) are used:
{code}
> ./petals-cli.sh -C

Type 'help' for help.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
petals-cli> open <user1>:<password1>@<host1>:<port1>
Conected on <host1>:<port1> with '<user1>'
petals-cli> close
petals-cli> open
Conected on localhost:7700 with 'petals'
{code}

h3. Default connection

By default (if no argument or option is set):
- In mode 'console', the connexion is establish on command 'open' to localhost:7700 with credentials 'petals/petals',
{code}
> ./petals-cli.sh -C

Type 'help' for help.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
petals-cli> open
Conected on localhost:7700 with 'petals'
{code}
- In mode 'command line', connexion parameter are mandatory
{code}
> ./petals-cli.sh -h <host> -n <port> -u <user> -p <password> -c <command>
{code}
- In mode 'script', the connexion is establish on command 'open' to localhost:7700 with credentials 'petals/petals'
{code}
> ./petals-cli.sh -f - << EOF
open
EOF
{code}

h2. Petals CLI commands

h3. Installation/Deployment and start of an artifact in one command

Petals CLI is able to install/deploy and start a JBI artifact without distinction between shared-library, component and service assembly using the following command:
{code}
deploy <artifact-file> [<configuration-file> | <configuration-properties>]
{code}
where:
- {{<artifact-file>}} is the local file name or the URL of the artifact to install or deploy and start
- {{<configuration-file>}} is the local file name or the URL of the properties file used to configure the artifact. This argument is used only if the component is a component. It has no sens for other artifacts. This argument is exclusive with {{<configuration-properties>}}.
- {{<configuration-properties>}} is a list of '{{<property-name>=<property-value>}}', separated by space, where {{<property-name>}} is the name of the property to configure with {{<property-value>}}. This argument is used only if the component is a component. It has no sens for other artifacts. This argument is exclusive with {{<configuration-file>}}.

h3. Uninstallation/Undeployment and stop of an artifact in one command

Petals CLI is able to stop and uninstall/undeploy a JBI artifact without distinction between shared-library, component and service assembly using the following command:
{code}
undeploy [ <artifact-file> | [<artifact-type> <artifact-id>] ]
{code}
where:
- {{<artifact-file>}} is the local file name or the URL of the artifact to undeploy
- {{artifact-id}} is the nature (SL, component, SA) of the artifact to undeploy
