NAME

Web::MREST::CLI::Parser - Parser for demo MREST command line client

SYNOPSIS

my $status;
my @tokens = split /\s+/, 'MY SAMPLE COMMAND';
try {
Web::MREST::CLI::Parse::parse_tokens( [], \@tokens );
} catch {
$status = $_;
};

CLI COMMANDS

The parsing of CLI commands takes place in the parse_tokens function, which calls itself recursively until it gets to a rather macabre-sounding

die send_req . . .

This causes control to return to the while loop in bin/mrest-cli with the return value of the send_req, which is a status object.

All tokens should be chosen to be distinguishable by their first three characters.
