Hosting the OpenStudio CLI on a server

Hey Unmet!

Is it at all possible to deploy the OpenStudio command line interface to a remote server? I am trying to develop lightweight calculation tools without the user having to download the actual software. Ideally, I would like to use a web interface to feed inputs to a .osw file which then would be feed to the CLI to produce reports that would be displayed to the user in a web browser.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
