Both commands work with local devices by remotely invoking the `os-config` executable via SSH. This requires an as of yet unreleased resinOS (that will most likely be v2.14) and the commands ascertain compatibility merely by looking for the `os-config` executable in the device, and bail out if it’s not present.
`join` and `leave` accept a couple of optional arguments and implement a wizard-style interface if these are not given. They allow to interactively select the device and the application to promote to. If the user has no apps, `join` will offer the user to create one. `join` will also offer the user to login or create an account if they’re not logged in already without exiting the wizard.
`resin-sync` (that's used internally to discover local devices) requires admin privileges. If no device has been specified as an argument, the commands will launch the device scanning process in a privileged subprocess via two new internal commands: `internal sudo` and `internal scanDevices`. This avoids having the user to invoke the commands with sudo and only request escalation if truly needed. This commit also removes the dependency to “president”, implementing “sudo” functionality within the CLI.
Change-Type: minor
Using `resin build` a user can now build an image on their own docker
daemon. The daemon can be accessed via a local socket, a remote host and
a remote host over a TLS socket. Project type resolution is supported.
Nocache and tagging of images is also supported.
Using `resin deploy` a user can now deploy an image to their fleet. The
image can either be built by `resin-cli`, plain Docker, or from a remote
source.

Since we're now forcing users to rely on `npm` directly for updates, we
can also get rid of plugin commands that attempt to
install/update/remove using npm programatically and require users to use
`npm` directly as well.
This commit removes the following commands:
- `plugins`
- `plugin install`
- `plugin update`
- `plugin remove`
Despite plugin related commands being removed, *the functionality that
scans for plugins and registers them remains intact*.
We added this because we thought that knowledge of the supported device types, along with the configuration procedures was going to be encoded in the CLI.
With device specs, this is not longer the case.
