The IOPIPE cli tool uses pipescripts, javascript-based microservices,
to simplify the consumption and integration of web services.
IOpipe simplifies the consumption and integration of web services through
the chaining of pipescripts, javascript-based microservices.

Pipescripts can transform data into web service requests and
can transform responses.
Pipescripts take and transform input, providing straight-forward output
in a fashion to Unix pipes. Scripts may receive input or send output to/from
web service requests, functions, or local applications.

Web services may be placed anywhere within a pipeline, allowing
transformations (and code execution) to happen on both client & server.
Scripts may be embedded in applications, used from shell scripts, or run manually
via a CLI. Because pipescript is Javascript, embedding is possible with most
languages and made safe through sandboxing.
