Developing new CMT services

If you want to implement a new SERVICE named myservice for CMT, you need to:

1. Create a new myservice.py file in the cloudera-manager-tools folder
2. Implement in it a Myservice class (Uppercase capital letter) which extends one of the CMT abstract classes defined in __interfaces__.py
3. Implement actions for your myservice by implementing public methods (whose name is not staring by "_").

Have a look at the code in any of the already implemented services in the cloudera-manager-tools for more details.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1. Any .py file in the cloudera-manager-tools, whose name is not starting with "__" (two underscores) will be loaded as SERVICE
2. Any method defined in your CMT service class whose name is not starting with "_" (an underscore) will be exposed as ACTION for your service.
