DESCRIPTION

This module is an interactive client to a JSON-RPC service. It is currently in its infancy and is likely to be very unstable. There are many bugs in this package.

shell

Initiate a shell session

help

Display the help text.

connect smdUrl

Connect to the specified SMD URL

disconnect

If connected, will disconnect from the existing service. This doesn't necessarily mean that it will disconnect the socket (it will if the socket is still open), because JSON-RPC does not require a dedicated connection.

quit

Aliased to disconnected

ls

List available methods

method Caller

By entering <method> [parameters] the shell will query the Service and display results
