[wildfly-dev] HTTP API support for plain JBoss-CLI commands

[Darran Lofthouse]

It was written a couple of years back but this is a good blog post to 
look at for different clients sending in management requests: -

You don't need to go as far as the Base64 encoding and decoding if you 
do not want to and just create the json formatted requests and parse the 
json responses.
