# Boxer::Task(3pm)

## VERSION

Version v1.4.3

## DESCRIPTION

This is the base class for Boxer tasks.

Tasks coerce, validate, and process application commands.

Currently implemented tasks:

- •

  Classify

- •

  Serialize

- •

  Bootstrap

## IDEAS

Tasks are separated from commands to allow for different front-end interfaces, even if currently only a single command-line tool is provided.

### wrappers

Might be useful to provide wrappers for existing command-line tools, preserving full behavior of the underlying tool only extending it with relevant boxer options.

Examples:

- •

  `"debootstrap-boxer [...] [--boxer-node=NODE[,NODE2...]] [...]"`

### web

Would be cool to offer a web service where you could request a customized system image to be generated for you on demand.
