Create Huxley Command `huxley cluster describe` #45

Closed freeformflow closed 9 years ago

freeformflow commented 9 years ago

We want to give users more access to the state of the cluster, particularly during shutdown and startup. From the product sketch, please implement an information command.

$ huxley cluster describe development
state: online
domain: development.acme.com
instance:
  type: m1.medium
  region: us-west
  spot: yes

Most of this is pretty static information at the moment, but the value state changes and is important to users during shutdown and startup. After the changes in #32 are made to the Huxley API server, we can provide this value. We can even treat cluster describe like the linux command top and automatically update the display every 5 seconds so users may watch the cluster's progress.

This also solves the issue raised in #21.

@peterlnguyen, this is another CLI ticket I'm assigning to you.
