httppower - communicate with HTTP based power distribution units

httppower  is  a  helper  program  for  powerman  which  enables  it to communicate with HTTP based power
       distribution units.  It is run interactively by the powerman daemon.

       /usr/sbin/httppower
       /etc/powerman/powerman.conf

       The following commands are accepted at the httppower> prompt:

       authuser:pass
              Authenticate to the base URL with specified user and password, using ``basic'' HTTP authentication
              which sends the user and password over the network in plain text.

       seturlURL
              Set the base URL.  Overrides the command line option.

       setheader[stringdata]
              Set extra HEADER to use.  Do not specify data to clear.  Overrides the command line option.

       cookies<enable|disable>
              Enable or disable use of cookies.  Overrides the command line option.

       get[URL-suffix]
              Send an HTTP GET to the base URL with the optional URL-suffix appended.

       post[URL-suffix]<stringdata>
              Send an HTTP POST to the base URL with the  optional  URL-suffix  appended,  and  string  data  as
              argument.   Typically, the data is key=value pairs (multiple of which can be concatenated with the
              &-symbol), but there can be exceptions.

       put[URL-suffix]<stringdata>
              Send an HTTP PUT to the base URL with  the  optional  URL-suffix  appended,  and  string  data  as
              argument.
