Flagger
Flagger is an arbitrary CLI flags parser, like argparse in Python. Flagger is able to parse boolean, integer and string flags.
Installation
go get -u -v lab.pztrn.name/golibs/flagger
Usage
Flagger requires logging interface to be passed on initialization.
See loggerinterface.go for required logging functions.
It is able to run with standart log package, in that case
initialize flagger like:
flgr = flagger.New("My Super Program", flagger.LoggerInterface(log.New(os.Stdout, "testing logger: ", log.Lshortfile)))
flgr.Initialize()
Adding a flag is easy, just fill Flag structure and pass to AddFlag() call:
flag_bool := Flag{
Name: "boolflag",
Description: "Boolean flag",
Type: "bool",
DefaultValue: true,
}
err := flgr.AddFlag(&flag_bool)
if err != nil {
...
}
After adding all neccessary flags you should issue Parse() call to get
them parsed:
flgr.Parse()
After parsed they can be obtained everywhere you want, like:
val, err := flgr.GetBoolValue("boolflag")
if err != nil {
...
}
For more examples take a look at flagger_test.go file or at GoDoc.
