XXX the client has been temporarily removed. See  issue 68 .

Grassyknoll includes a commandline client named grassyknoll, surprisingly enough. It lives in grassyknoll.client, but you probably don't want to look at that, unless you want to write your own client.

The client can be used to interact with a server running the RestFrontend. It features subversion-style subcommands.

pfein@brick:~$ grassyknoll --help
usage: grassyknoll [-h] [-U ROOT_URL] [-O OUTFILE] [--output-mimetype
                   OUTPUT_MIMETYPE]
                   {put,rm,search,ls,get} ...

interact with a grassyknoll server

positional arguments:
  {put,rm,search,ls,get}

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -U ROOT_URL, --root-url ROOT_URL
                        Url to the server root
  -O OUTFILE, --outfile OUTFILE
  --output-mimetype OUTPUT_MIMETYPE

Run grassyknoll cmd --help to get more information on the various subcommands.
