Core concepts

Commands and actions

A Command is a line of text typed into the shell. It consists of three main parts: <target>: <action> [<argument>...]

• Target is a path to the node on which action will be invoked.
• Action is name of the behavior to be executed.
• Arguments are optional list of values passed to the action.

Example:

$ /: list.actions
get
set
list
list.actions
remove
contains

Every command part could also be represented by command
