Allow invoking the cli in non-interactive mode, indicating the
command to be executed. E.g.
cli --command "show ip route"
or:
cli -c "show ip route"
Multiple commands can be provided, with arguments. E.g.
cli -c "show vrf" -c "show ip route vrrfid=0"

Ok. I'll check that later. There's another PR.

But then we would not have the completions, which are very handy IMO. |

True, but we'd still have them when invoking the interactive mode (as opt-in), or by loading a bash completion script (but we'd need to create that first). |
