Create a command-line interface

[cryptoquick]

Provides an interface for the following functions:

cli api

• [x] hashd init #8
  • create a ec? key locally and provides the hash. stores it in the database and returns the mnemonic. it might also encrypt it with a PBKDF.
  • device key - cold key
  • identity key - hot key
• [ ] hashd hashrate - benchmark and list hashrates up to a provided difficulty
• [ ] hashd set -v 10 "Message" "tag1,tag2" image.jpg
• [ ] hashd get -v 10 type="value"
• [x] hashd hash SIG - provide hashes for block signature #9
• [ ] hashd config threshold (forward|store-headers|store-broadcast|store-data)
• [ ] hashd verify KEY - block info - #6
• [ ] hashd explore - p2p search

This looks complete enough, and it's in the standard library:

Forgive me if I don't have the entire Python standard library memorized. :smile_cat:

Saving here for future reference.

While twitter is easy enough to implement even for the MVP I think we should focus on getting service discovery, key rotation, and tor proxy working properly. Once we have this working we will have the basics which we can build on.

Cool, I took that out.

If we want to avoid having to create our own REPL interface (somewhat tedious when we consider things like special inputs, e.g. Ctrl+W), we could use command groupings available in argparse.
