=head1 NAME

Func-transmit -- cross-language func adapter

=head1 SYNOPSIS

func-transmit [-h|--help] [-j|--json] [-y|--yaml] < data_in > data_out

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Func includes a powerful Python API for addressing the overlord via software.  When writing an app in a language other than Python, func-transmit can be used
to operate the overlord and recieve structured results from it.

This tool, func-transmit, is intended to be called using pipes, sending formatted data into stdin and recieving return codes via stdout.  It also can be invoked using the shell.

=head1 FORMATS AND USAGE

The input and output format is either JSON or YAML 1.0. The default is JSON. The [--yaml] option enables YAML support.

The data formats used by Func transmit are described in more detail (with
examples) at https://fedorahosted.org/func/wiki/FuncTransmit

=head1 EXIT_STATUS

Generally func-transmit should always return 0 if loading is successful.  Return data is then expressed in the output stream, to be interpreted by a JSON or YAML  module at the other end of the pipe.  Non-zero return codes indicate more serious setup problems.

Func-transmit will exit after every command issued to the overlord, it does not await further input on the pipes.
