Implement a commandline interface for the AVM smart home lib

Implement a ready-to-use application to interface the existing AVM smart home lib

Acceptance criteria:

  • The application should be able to make use of a configuration file or via direct arguments
    • Direct arguments overwrite config settings
  • Make use of the existing AVM interface/test binaries
  • Make use of the existsing config interface

Meta:

  • Name the application binary avmctrl
  • Support short/long argument name eg. -h and --help
  • Support dedicated operations like systemctl list-units

List of arguments:

  • avmctl -h|--help Show the available operations / arguments
  • avmctl -c|--config Set the path to a config file
  • avmctl -H|--host Set a host for the operations (overwrites config host)
  • avmctl -u|--user Set a username for session (overwrites config username)
  • avmctl -p|--password Set a password for the session (overwrites config password)
  • avmctl check-config Try to start a test session and on success end it
  • avmctl list List all usable actors and print some meta information about them
  • avmctl present [ain] Check if the configured actor is present/connected
  • avmctl state [ain] Retrieve the current state of the actor (EXIT 0 = on, EXIT_FAILURE 1 = off)
  • avmctl status [ain] Print information about presence and state of the actor
  • avmctl toggle [ain] Toggle the state of the actor
  • avmctl off [ain] Turn the actor off
  • avmctl on [ain] Turn the actor on

Other things to do:

  • Document the usage in a man page
