SideCarCLI- diagram for how it is working

Usually,a picture is better than words . So,I can explain how SideCarCLI works – or I can draw an image.

The easiest way to draw an image is with  https://mermaidjs.github.io/ –  that has also a live editor at https://mermaid-js.github.io/mermaid-live-editor .

The code for generating the picture is

sequenceDiagram

participant S as SideCar

participant R as Real Application

participant L as Line Interceptor(s)

participant F as Finish Interceptor(s)

participant T as Timer Interceptor(s)

S->>R: Start Application

loop for each timer in json

S->>T: Start Timer application

end

loop for each line output from real application

R->>S: Send Output  Line to SideCae\r

S->>+L: Start Line Interceptor with line output in command line

L->>-S: execute and returns

end

R->>S: End Application

S->>+F: Send line output

F->>-S: execute and returns

and you can see here the picture
