Hammer - the CLI tool (not only) for Foreman
============================================

Hammer is a generic [clamp-based](https://github.com/mdub/clamp) CLI framework.
Hammer-cli provides just the core functionality. The core is extensible using plugins that contain application-specific commands.

This architecture allows for easy customization according to your application. Nearly any Ruby script can be turned into a Hammer command, so the possibilities are endless. You also can easily add custom commands for your specific use, such as bulk actions or admin tasks.

Available plugins are listed on [the Foreman's wiki](http://projects.theforeman.org/projects/hammer-cli/wiki/List_of_Plugins).

Check out the [release notes](doc/release_notes.md#release-notes) to see what's new in the latest version.

Installation
------------
We build rpms, debs and gems. Alternatively you can install hammer from a git checkout.
See our [installation and configuration instuctions](doc/installation.md#installation).

Having issues?
--------------
If one of hammer commands doesn't work as you would expect, you can run `hammer -d ...` to get
full debug output from the loggers. It should give you an idea what went wrong.

If you have questions, don't hesitate to contact us on `[email protected]` or
the `Freenode#theforeman` IRC channel.

Further reading
