Hammer - Next gen CLI tool.

At this point I have a basic CLI tool written that can do simple queries and searches: Foremancli

There are a few features that a full tool will need.
  1. Ability to provision
  2. Ability to edit attributes of a resource or group eg: Give a hostgroup a puppetclass or a custom fact
  3. Ability to interact with subcollections e.g. /hosts/fqdn/facts
  4. Ability to do everything the rake tasks can do (short of local tasks like starting and stopping the server)
  5. Make hammer a library that can be called from other Ruby tools

First go at some code is at https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-hammer/

hashing out syntax:

hammer --globalflags command [subcommand] (options)

-d, --debug                      Output more information
    -u, --user USER                  Foreman user
    -p, --pass PASSWORD              Foreman password
    -s, --server URL                 Foreman Server URL
        --json                       JSON output
        --yaml                       YAML output
