Description
Similar to the recent consolidation in ‘git’, the new Application class enables us to provide a single application that has access to all of the executable functionality. E.g., I could see the following commands:
puppetcmd ral user foo ensure=absent puppetcmd ca --sign foo.madstop.com puppetcmd server start puppetcmd client start puppetcmd bucket restore /my/file puppetcmd doc --reference type puppetcmd run --host foo
I’m definitely not recommending the name be ‘puppetcmd’, but this basic idea could simplify things a good bit. The thing I really like about it, though, is that it will force us to make all of the applications much more consistent – they’ll each register exactly the commands they support, and the Application class can handle querying and listing those commands for this new executable.

Whilst it’s not hugely backwards-compatible I’d just use “puppet”. You can migrate/deprecate existing funtionality for “puppet”.

That works for me.

I pushed a simple not-quite-functional prototype to a feature/master/2276 branch in my repo.

I’ve got a simple WIP up at luke/feature/master/single_executable that at least shows partial progress and what I was planning on doing. Jesse’s taking this over.
