This is similar to `promtool check-config` and allows one
to validate the alertmanager configuration (as a git presubmit for example).
`govendor fetch github.com/spf13/{cobra,pflag}` was needed to
have support for `Args`.
Found that we are only defining MarshalJSON for the Regexp type for
references not for the direct object
Also took the time to simplify the json.Unmarshal usage in cli/config.go
Fixes#721
I was using the RunE method of cobra.Command which does things with an
error returned from a function. I doesn't seem possible to keep it from
printing usage every time, so I've make a wrapper to use the other
function.
* Implement alertmanager cli tool 'amtool'
The primary goal of an alertmanager tool is to provide a cli interface
for the prometheus alertmanager.
My vision for this tool has two parts:
- Silence management (query, add, delete)
- Alert management (query, maybe more in future?)
Resolves: #567
