## API mapping

### Basic flags

#### --level

Set the logging level to anything [npmlog](https://npmjs.org/package/npmlog)
supports natively with `--level [level]`.

#### --version

Print out clown's version and exit.

### Routes

Routes look something like this:

```bash
[client-type] [resource] [command]
```

Commands don't have quite the same names as in pkgcloud, but generally map
1:1.

### Client options

Client options are specified under the client type. For example, to specify the
provider at the command line with the compute client, use the option
`--compute.provider`.

### Command options

Command options are named as they are in the pkgcloud documentation. For
example, to specify the flavorId with `compute flavors get` at the command
line, use the option `--flavorId`.

## TODO

* Commands for everything that isn't compute
* Inline documentation for all routes that don't run a command
