        A minimalist [Flask](https://github.com/pallets/flask) extension that serves as a REST API wrapper for python's subprocess API.
        
        - **Convert any command-line tool into a REST API service.**
        - Execute pre-defined shell commands asynchronously and securely via flask's endpoints.
        - Designed for development, prototyping or remote control.
        
        Inspired by the work of awesome folks over at [msoap/shell2http](https://github.com/msoap/shell2http).
        
        ## Use Cases
        
        - Set a script that runs on a succesful POST request to an endpoint of your choice. See [Example code](examples/run_script.py).
        - Map a base command to an endpoint and pass dynamic arguments to it. See [Example code](examples/basic.py).
        - Can also process multiple uploaded files in one command. See [Example code](examples/multiple_files.py).
        - This is useful for internal docker-to-docker communications if you have different binaries distributed in micro-containers. See [real-life example](https://github.com/intelowlproject/IntelOwl/blob/develop/integrations/peframe/app.py).
        - Currently, all commands are run asynchronously (default timeout is 3600 seconds), so result is not available directly. An option _may_ be provided for this in future release.
        
        > Note: This extension is primarily meant for executing long-running
        > shell commands/scripts (like nmap, code-analysis' tools) in background from an HTTP request and getting the result at a later time.
        
        ## Documentation / Quick Start
        
        [![Documentation Status](https://readthedocs.org/projects/flask-shell2http/badge/?version=latest)](https://flask-shell2http.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest)
        
        Read the [Quickstart](https://flask-shell2http.readthedocs.io/en/stable/Quickstart.html) 
        from the [documentation](https://flask-shell2http.readthedocs.io/) to get started!
        
        ## Why?
        
        This was initially made to integrate various command-line tools easily with [IntelOwl](https://github.com/intelowlproject/IntelOwl).
