Overview ¶
Package cli exposes helpers to build command-line binaries with cobra and viper.
Example (ChildCmd) ¶
Example_childCmd runs a child command.
rootCmd := RootCmd()
if err := rootCmd.ExecuteWithArgs(
"child",
"--parallel",
"20",
"--url",
"https://www.zorg.com",
"--user",
"zorg",
"--workers",
"12",
); err != nil {
log.Fatal("executing:", err)
}
fmt.Println("done")
Output: subcommand called URL config: https://www.zorg.com parallel config: 20 user config: zorg workers config: 12 global flags values evaluated by child cli_test.cliFlags{DryRun:false, URL:"https://www.zorg.com", Parallel:20, User:"zorg", LogLevel:"info", Child:cli_test.childFlags{Workers:12}} done
Example (Help) ¶
rootCmd := RootCmd()
rootCmd.SetArgs([]string{
"--help",
})
if err := rootCmd.Execute(); err != nil {
log.Fatal("executing:", err)
}
fmt.Println("done")
Output: ... Usage: example [flags] example [command] Available Commands: child sub-command example completion Generate the autocompletion script for the specified shell help Help about any command version another sub-command example Flags: --dry-run Dry run -h, --help help for example --log-level string Controls logging verbosity (default "info") -p, --parallel int Degree of parallelism (default 2) --url string The URL to connect to (default "https://www.example.com") --user string Originating user Use "example [command] --help" for more information about a command. done
Example (PrintCmd) ¶
Example_printCmd prints out the tree structure of the root command.
rootCmd := RootCmd() fmt.Println(rootCmd.String())
Output: example child grandchild version
Example (RootCmd) ¶
Example_rootCmd runs the root command.
rootCmd := RootCmd()
rootCmd.SetArgs([]string{
"--dry-run",
"--log-level",
"debug",
"--parallel",
"15",
"--user",
"fred",
},
)
if err := rootCmd.Execute(); err != nil {
log.Fatal("executing:", err)
}
fmt.Println("done")
Output: example called URL config: https://www.example.com log level config: debug parallel config: 15 user config: fred global flags values evaluated by root cli_test.cliFlags{DryRun:true, URL:"https://www.example.com", Parallel:15, User:"fred", LogLevel:"debug", Child:cli_test.childFlags{Workers:5}} done

Examples ¶
Constants ¶
This section is empty.
Variables ¶
var ( // ConfigEnv defines the environment variable used by the Config() function // to find the current environment. ConfigEnv = "CONFIG_ENV" // ConfigDebugEnv defines the environment variable used to instruct the config loader // to dump all config keys for debugging. ConfigDebugEnv = "DEBUG_CONFIG" )
Functions ¶
func Config ¶
Config calls ConfigForEnv, with the current environment resolved from the variable "CONFIG_ENV".
func ConfigForEnv ¶
ConfigForEnv loads and merge a set of config files for a given environment and applies some default values.
It assumes that config files follow the conventions defined by "github.com/fredbi/go-cli/config".
It dies upon failure.
Environment variable settings:
- If the environment variable "DEBUG_CONFIG" is set, the loaded settings are dumped to standard output as JSON.
- The environment variable "CONFIG_DIR" defines the folder where the root configuration is located.
func ConfigForEnvWithOptions ¶ added in v0.1.1
func ConfigForEnvWithOptions(env string, opts []config.Option, defaulters ...func(*viper.Viper)) *viper.Viper
ConfigForEnvWithOptions loads and merge a set of config files for a given environment and applies some default values.
This function accepts some config.Options to control where and how the configuration files should be loaded.
func Die ¶
Die exits the current process with some final croak.
This wraps log.Fatal for convenient testing.
func MustBindFromFlagSet ¶
MustBindFromFlagSet binds a key in a *viper.Viper registry to command-line flag found in a flag set (*pflag.FlagSet).
Dies on error. This happens if the flag set is nil or if the requested flag has not been registered in the flag set yet.
func MustBindPFlag ¶
MustBindPlag binds a key in a *viper.Viper registry to a command-line flag (*pflag.Flag).
Dies on error. This happens if the flag is nil.
func SetConfigOptions ¶
SetConfigOption defines package-level defaults for config options, when using ConfigForEnv or Config.
By default, this package doesn't set any particular option and uses all defaults from the config package.
TODO: package-level options should be removed and injected.
Types ¶
type Command ¶
Command wraps a *cobra.Command with some options to register and bind flags more easily.
func NewCommand ¶
NewCommand builds a new Command wrapping a *cobra.Command.
func (*Command) AddCommand ¶
AddCommand adds child command(s).
func (*Command) BindFlags ¶
func (c *Command) BindFlags()
BindFlags binds the command-line flags marked as such to the configuration registry.
This applies recursively to all sub-commands.
It doesn't perform anything if no flags or no config are set for the command (use the options WithFlagVar() and WithConfig())
func (*Command) ExecuteContext ¶
ExecuteContext wraps cobra.Command.ExecuteContext() by ensuring the config is in the context.
func (*Command) ExecuteWithArgs ¶
ExecuteWithArgs is a convenience wrapper to execute a command with preset args.
This is primarily intended for testing commands.
func (*Command) RegisterFlags ¶
func (c *Command) RegisterFlags()
Register command-line flags for this command.
type FlagOption ¶
type FlagOption func(*flagOption)
func BindFlagToConfig ¶
func BindFlagToConfig(key string) FlagOption
BindFlagToConfig declares the flag as bound to a configuration key in the viper registry.
func FlagIsPersistent ¶ added in v0.1.1
func FlagIsPersistent() FlagOption
FlagIsPersistent declares the flag as persistent for the command.
func FlagIsRequired ¶
func FlagIsRequired() FlagOption
FlagIsRequired declares the flag as required for the command.
type Option ¶
type Option func(*options)
Option configures a Command.
func WithConfig ¶
WithConfig adds a viper.Viper configuration to the command tree.
The config can be retrieved from the context of the command, using injectable.ConfigFromContext().
func WithFlag ¶
func WithFlag[T gflag.FlaggablePrimitives | gflag.FlaggableTypes](name string, defaultValue T, usage string, opts ...FlagOption) Option
WithFlag declares a flag of any type supported by gflag, with some options.
The pointer to the flag value is allocated automatically.
func WithFlagFunc ¶
func WithFlagFunc(regFunc RegisterFunc, opts ...FlagOption) Option
WithFlagFunc declares a command flag using a RegisterFunc function and some flag options.
func WithFlagP ¶
func WithFlagP[T gflag.FlaggablePrimitives | gflag.FlaggableTypes](name, shorthand string, defaultValue T, usage string, opts ...FlagOption) Option
WithFlagP declares a flag of any type supported by gflag, with a shorthand name and some options.
The pointer to the flag value is allocated automatically.
func WithFlagVar ¶ added in v0.1.1
func WithFlagVar[T gflag.FlaggablePrimitives | gflag.FlaggableTypes](addr *T, name string, defaultValue T, usage string, opts ...FlagOption) Option
WithFlagVar declares a flag of any type supported by gflag, with some options.
The pointer to the flag value is provided explicitly.
func WithFlagVarP ¶ added in v0.1.1
func WithFlagVarP[T gflag.FlaggablePrimitives | gflag.FlaggableTypes](addr *T, name, shorthand string, defaultValue T, usage string, opts ...FlagOption) Option
WithFlagVarP declares a flag of any type supported by gflag, with a shorthand name and some options.
The pointer to the flag value is provided explicitly.
func WithInjectables ¶ added in v0.1.2
func WithInjectables[T any](injectables ...injectable.ContextInjectable) Option
WithInjectables adds dependencies to be injected in the context of the command.
For each injectable, its Context() method will be called in the specified order to enrich the context of the command.
NOTE: the config registry is a special dependency because it may bind to CLI flags.
Configuration may be injected directly with the more explicit WithConfig() method.
func WithSliceFlag ¶
func WithSliceFlag[T gflag.FlaggablePrimitives | gflag.FlaggableTypes](name string, defaultValue []T, usage string, opts ...FlagOption) Option
WithSliceFlag declares a flag of any slice type supported by gflag, with some options.
The pointer to the flag value is allocated automatically.
func WithSliceFlagP ¶
func WithSliceFlagP[T gflag.FlaggablePrimitives | gflag.FlaggableTypes](name, shorthand string, defaultValue []T, usage string, opts ...FlagOption) Option
WithSliceFlagP declares a flag of any slice type supported by gflag, with a shorthand name and some options.
The pointer to the flag value is allocated automatically.
func WithSliceFlagVar ¶ added in v0.1.1
func WithSliceFlagVar[T gflag.FlaggablePrimitives | gflag.FlaggableTypes](addr *[]T, name string, defaultValue []T, usage string, opts ...FlagOption) Option
WithSliceFlagVar declares a flag of any slice type supported by gflag, with some options.
The pointer to the flag value is provided explicitly.
func WithSliceFlagVarP ¶ added in v0.1.1

func WithSubCommands ¶
WithSubCommands adds child commands.
type RegisterFunc ¶
RegisterFunc registers a flag to a provided pflag.FlagSet and returns the flag name.
