It would be awesome and quite handy to be able to connect via telnet or similar to the isaac server and to send and receive data with a text based interface. However nobody wants to enter JSON themself, so the most common messages should be easier to send like this
> list⏎
Simulation A, 12 Nodes, 512x512x512
Simulation B, 42 Nodes, 1024x1024x128
> observe "Simulation A"⏎
{
"metadata": {
"currentStep": 2342
}
}
{
"metadata": {
"currentStep": 2343
}
}
> metadata "Simulation A" "pause" true⏎
Furthermore recevied JSON packages should be still JSON, but formated e.g with indentation.
