Functions

func AddMutationFlags 

func AddMutationFlags(cmd *cobra.Command, flags *MutationFlags)

AddMutationFlags adds --passthru and --format flags for mutating commands. Mutating commands are silent by default; --passthru outputs what was changed. Usage: 

var flags cli.MutationFlags
cli.AddMutationFlags(cmd, &flags)

func AddOutputFlags 

func AddOutputFlags(cmd *cobra.Command, flags *OutputFlags)

AddOutputFlags adds --filter and --format flags to a command. Usage: 

var output cli.OutputFlags
cli.AddOutputFlags(cmd, &output)

func AddSilentFlag 

func AddSilentFlag(cmd *cobra.Command)

AddSilentFlag adds the --silent flag to a root command.

func AllSettings 

func AllSettings() map[string]interface{}

AllSettings returns all settings as a map.

func BashCompletionPath 

func BashCompletionPath() string

func BindFlags 

func BindFlags(cmd *cobra.Command, toolName string, useSharedConfig bool) error

BindFlags binds all persistent flags from a command to Viper. Call this after defining flags and before Execute().

Flags are bound with the tool's section prefix when using shared config:

  • --repo flag → viper key "writ.repo" (with UseSharedConfig)
  • --repo flag → viper key "repo" (without UseSharedConfig)

func BindFlagsWithPrefix 

func BindFlagsWithPrefix(flags *pflag.FlagSet, prefix string) error

BindFlagsWithPrefix binds flags with a custom prefix. Useful for subcommands that need their own config section.

Example: 

BindFlagsWithPrefix(addCmd.Flags(), "writ.add")
// --overwrite flag → viper key "writ.add.overwrite"

func CacheHome 

func CacheHome() string

CacheHome returns XDG_CACHE_HOME or ~/.cache

func InitViper 

func InitViper(cfg ViperConfig) error

InitViper initializes Viper with standard devlore conventions. Call this in PersistentPreRunE of the root command.

Precedence (lowest to highest):

  1. Config file defaults
  2. Config file values
  3. Environment variables (TOOL_KEY_NAME)
  4. Command-line flags

Environment variable mapping:

  • WRIT_REPO → writ.repo (with UseSharedConfig)
  • WRIT_VARS_USER_NAME → writ.vars.user_name
  • Dots become underscores, keys are case-insensitive

func NewConfigCmd 

func NewConfigCmd(info ConfigInfo) *cobra.Command

NewConfigCmd creates the config command with git-style subcommands.

Dot-paths match the config file structure exactly. No implicit prefixing. "writ.repos.0.path" in the CLI reads writ.repos[0].path in the file. "secrets.mode" reads secrets.mode. WYSIWYG.

Usage: 

tool config get <key>...                    # Get values
tool config set <key>=<value>...            # Set values
tool config unset <key>...                  # Remove keys
tool config list                            # List all settings
tool config edit                            # Open in $EDITOR
tool config validate                        # Validate against schema
tool config schema                          # Output JSON schema
tool config path                            # Show config file location

func NewHelpCmd

func NewManCmd 

func NewManCmd(rootCmd *cobra.Command, header ManHeader) *cobra.Command

NewManCmd creates the man command for displaying/installing man pages. Usage: 

tool man              # display man page with pager
tool man --install    # install to ~/.local/share/man/man1/
tool man deploy       # display man page for subcommand

func NewSelfInstallCmd 

func NewSelfInstallCmd(rootCmd *cobra.Command, info SelfInstallInfo) *cobra.Command

./tool self-install ~/.local --personal-repo=~/dotfiles

This performs complete installation:

  • Copies binary to <root>/bin/
  • Installs man pages to <root>/share/man/man1/ (if man command exists)
  • Installs completions for detected shells (or specified via --shell)
  • Initializes config in XDG_CONFIG_HOME/devlore/
  • Initializes cache in XDG_CACHE_HOME/devlore/
  • Scans and registers repos (if --personal-repo or --team-repo provided)
