Enhancement: Create a tool for the creation of OpMon about opmon-archive HOT 9 OPEN

There is a complete guide about creating OpMons here in the wiki: https://github.com/OpMonTeam/OpMon/wiki/How-to-create-an-OpMon
However, the JSON format is not explained very well so I will try to make a guide as soon as possible. OpMon is currently on hiatus but I should have at least the time to create a guide explaining how the JSON works in the week, probably Wednesday. Thanks for noticing this problem!
For the OpMon creator, it's a very good idea. If you're interested in doing it, that would be great! Else, I currently prefer to concentrate on the 0.16 so I will do it after.
And about doing a file for each OpMon, I must admit I don't know if I should do it or not since it means making a big amount of files, and I don't really see what it would bring more than putting all of them in one file. I will think about it.

I started to build the tool here:

Oh, thank you! Meanwhile, I've done a little guide about the OpMon JSON format. I will add other formats guides, but for now, this is enough I think : https://github.com/OpMonTeam/OpMon/wiki/JSON-guide

This tool probably should be a new repository of the OpMonTeam account, don't you think ? A fork would be enough ^^

Btw, I think it would be advised to do the user interface in Qt, as it will be more native for end-users and considerably speed up the coding process as well

I agree about Qt, I've already used it in the past for personal projects. However, I don't know anything about the Qt license, and if it's compatible with the GPL 3.0. And I've forked the repository, but I won't have to time to personally contribute to it.
@PyroFlareX : What do you think about it? Do you prefer being a collaborator in a repo in OpMonTeam or keeping you repo and OpMonTeam having a fork of it?

I don't know anything about the Qt license, and if it's compatible with the GPL 3.0

Qt has two licences : a proprietary one and a (L)GPL v3. So it is possible to do open-source projects based on Qt.

As for @PyroFlareX , maybe put him administrator of the fork, so he can manage it from the OpMon Team's group directly ?

from opmon-archive.

That's what I've done, I invited him to the @OpMonTeam/opmon-creation-tool team, so he can have admin permissions on the fork. And ok for Qt!

Done
