Livepeer Command Line Tool

[ericxtang]

There should be:

livepeer daemon - launches livepeerd livepeer stream -d {deviceID} -h {hostInfo} - tries to capture a video stream from a local device and streams to host livepeer view -s {streamID} - tries to view a stream (requires a running local daemon)

Are these designs for the next iteration of the node? We already have

livepeer which launches the node livepeer stream <id>which does what you describe as view above.

See cmd/livepeer/main.go

Right. I think people get confused about the OBS stuff - probably much easier if we just issued the FFMPEG command to start the view stream and hide all the complexity (especially for beginners).

Couldn't think of a good command name for "start the stream" besides stream (although it's a little confusing - could either mean "start the stream" or "view the stream"). Or maybe we should use broadcast and view.

Also, I think we should add commands for diagnostics, checking dependencies, etc.
