Nice. I already thought about the Seaside interface.

But, what do I do if I want to script the commands? For example, I would like to orchestrate the building of a new image in the background, and when the second one is ready to shut down the first one.

Cheers,

Doru

Hi,

I have a running image that I trigger from the command line. What ways are there to make this running image react to some other command�sent from the command line?

The ideal solution, IMO, would be some local telnet access that gives you a REPL.

What I do with server images, is to install a small, protected Seaside application that groups a number of the tools already present in Seaside into a control panel: a browser, an inspector that can also execute code and some status views. This gives you a primitive but effective interface to see what is going on. It works surprisingly well.

You can find the code here:
