Command Processing

Introduction

Command handler provides a common command line interface (CLI). Command line must be text. Commands should be separated with a single character. CLI can be used with:

Serial
Network (Websockets, Telnet)

and all communication protocols that are exchanging text data.

Commands can be added to and removed from the command handler. Each command will trigger a defined Delegate.

A welcome message may be shown when a user connects and end-of-line (EOL) character may be defined. An automatic “help” display is available.

For more examples take a look at the CommandLine, TelnetServer and HttpServer Websockets samples.

Using

Add these lines to your application componenent.mk file:
```
COMPONENT_DEPENDS += CommandProcessing
```
Add these lines to your application:
```
#include <CommandProcessing/Utils.h>
```

Basic example:

#include <CommandProcessing/Utils.h>

CommandProcessing::Handler commandHandler;

void processShutdownCommand(String commandLine, ReadWriteStream& commandOutput)
{
  // ...
}

void init()
{
  commandHandler.registerSystemCommands();
          commandHandler.registerCommand(CommandProcessing::Command("shutdown", "Shutdown Server Command", "Application", processShutdownCommand));
}
