{8.0.0-new, 8.1.2-deprecated} 
Console Commands

<p>
	The Microservice API provides support for simple console commands.
</p>
<p class='bpcode w800'>
	<jk>public static void</jk> main(String[] args) {
		Microservice
			.<jsm>create</jsm>() 
			.args(args)
			.build()
			.start()
			.startConsole()    <jc>// Start console.</jc>
			.join()
		;
	}
</p>
<p>
	When started, the console renders the following output:
</p>
<p class='bpcode w800 console'>
	Running class 'Microservice' using config file 'my-microservice.cfg'.
	
	List of available commands:
		exit -- Shut down service
		restart -- Restarts service
		help -- Commands help
	
	> 			
</p>
<p>
	The builder methods for controlling the console are as follows:
</p>
<ul class='javatree'>
	<li class='jc'>{@link oaj.microservice.MicroserviceBuilder}
	<ul>
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.MicroserviceBuilder#consoleEnabled(boolean) consoleEnabled(boolean)} 
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.MicroserviceBuilder#consoleCommands(ConsoleCommand...) consoleCommands(ConsoleCommand...)} 
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.MicroserviceBuilder#consoleCommands(Class...) consoleCommands(Class...)} 
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.MicroserviceBuilder#console(Scanner,PrintWriter) console(Scanner,PrintWriter)} 
	</ul>
</ul>
<p>
	By default, the supported commands are pulled from the configuration file:
</p>
<p class='bpcode w800'>
	<cc>#=======================================================================================================================
	# Console settings
	#=======================================================================================================================</cc>
	<cs>[Console]</cs>
	
	<ck>enabled = <cv>true</cv>
	
	<cc># List of available console commands.
	# These are classes that implements ConsoleCommand that allow you to submit commands to the microservice via
	# the console.
	# When listed here, the implementations must provide a no-arg constructor.
	# They can also be provided dynamically by overriding the Microservice.createConsoleCommands() method.</cc>
	<ck>commands</ck> = 
		<cv>org.apache.juneau.microservice.console.ExitCommand,
		org.apache.juneau.microservice.console.RestartCommand,
		org.apache.juneau.microservice.console.HelpCommand</cv>
</p>
<p>
	New commands can be added by adding them to the configuration file, or programmatically using the {@link oaj.microservice.MicroserviceBuilder#consoleCommands(ConsoleCommand...) consoleCommands(ConsoleCommand...)} 
	builder method.
</p>
<p>
	The API for defining console commands is shown below: 
</p>
<ul class='javatree'>
	<li class='jac'>{@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand}
	<ul>
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#execute(Scanner,PrintWriter,Args) execute(Scanner,PrintWriter,Args)} 
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getDescription() getDescription()} 
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getExamples() getExamples()} 
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getInfo() getInfo()} 
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getName() getName()} 
		<li class='jm'>{@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getSynopsis() getSynopsis()} 
	</ul>
</ul>
<p>
	By default, the console input and output are taken from {@link java.lang.System.in} and {@link java.lang.System.out}.
	These can be overridden using the {@link oaj.microservice.MicroserviceBuilder#console(Scanner,PrintWriter) console(Scanner,PrintWriter)} method.
</p>
