   DESCRIPTION
       The  comitup-cli utility provides access to the comitup(8) D-Bus interface.  It is intended to serve as a
       debug tool, and a source code example for connecting to the interface.

       If the comitup(8) service is not running, comitup-cli will immediately exit.

       Display:

       • State

         The comitup states are HOTSPOT, CONNECTING, and CONNECTED.

         In the HOTSPOT mode, comitup creates a wifi hotspot with the name comitup-<nnn>, where <nnn> is a  per‐
         sistent number.

         Once  in  HOTSPOT  mode,  the system will occasionally (~1/min) cycle through available defined connec‐
         tions, by transitioning to the CONNECTING mode.  The Access Point list is updated by this process.  Any
         command issued by comitup-cli will cause the next timeout instance to be skipped.

         Once a connection is established, the system will be in the CONNECTED mode.  If the connection is lost,
         failed, or deleted, the system will transition back to the HOTSPOT state.

       • Connection

         The ssid of the current active connection.

       • Points

         While in the HOTSPOT mode, comitup-cli will list the currently-visible access points, by ssid.   Access
         points  with the strongest signal are sorted to the top of the list.  The entries are numbered, for use
         with the connect command.

       Commands:

       • r - Reload

         Refresh the displayed state, mode, and list of access points.

       • q - Quit

         Exit comitup.cli.

       • d - Delete connection

         Delete the configuration information for the current wifi connection.  This will cause comitup to tran‐
         sition to the HOTSPOT mode.

         This command is not available in the HOTSPOT mode.

       • <n> - Connect to access point <n>

         Define a connection for the selected access point, and then attempt to connect.

         This command is only available in the HOTSPOT mode.

       • m - Manual connection

         Enter an SSID manually.

       • i - Get information

         Return the comitup version and host name for the current instance.
