Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

The aim of this project is to make it trivial to expose a shell script("command-line script" or "CLI script") as a web application.

This library offers conversion, logic and templates to gather user input, feed it to a shell script and render the output in the browser.

All that has to be provided is a shell script and configuration. Optionally logic can be added to compliment the input, output or render process.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- As this is a web application, it is assumed a web-server is available.
- This project is written in PHP. Any actively support version is fine.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Installation is done using composer:

```
composer require potherca/cli2web

```

As this is a web application, it is assumed a web-server is available.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

- Create an index file in a public facing directory in the web-server
- Include the cli2web engine
- Feed the engine a configuration
- Done.

For more advanced scenario's any of the following steps can also be taken:

- Add logic that is called with the user input
    (instead of the CLI script being called directly)
- Add logic that is called with the shell script output
    (instead of the output being displayed directly, "raw", as-is)
- Add custom UI to display the returned output (instead of the output being displayed as plain-text)
