I'm looking for a cli Trello client. I've found several - a ruby version, multiple Python versions, and multiple Node.js versions. They are all (or mostly all) fine, but they don't appear to allow for easy command line syntax.
They all require learning the API, and I haven't found one that simplifies the process of knowing what arguments to pass; and in what order.

I could do the whole thing with curl, but then I'd be in the same boat with needing to learn the API and I'd still have to parse the response JSON.

I started writing one myself in Node.js, but it is time consuming, and not simplistic. What I'd like to be able to do is something like this:

trello addCard --title 'card title' --desc 'Card description' --labels 'Green Red' --due '3/11/2017'

Or

trello moveCard --cardId 'cardid' --to 'listid'

Etc - with the full Api available. If this functionality does exist, would you provide an example(s) of usage so I get the gist?

Cmd, bash, Perl, ruby, Python, Node.js, exe, autohotkey, etc. are all fine.
