Types

type Handler

type Handler func(optName string, argument string, usedAlias string) error

Handler - Signature for the function that handles saving to the option.

type Option

type Option struct {
	Name           string
	Aliases        []string
	EnvVar         string  // Env Var that sets the option value
	Called         bool    // Indicates if the option was passed on the command line
	UsedAlias      string  // Alias/Env var used when the option was called
	Handler        Handler // method used to handle the option
	IsOptional     bool    // Indicates if an option has an optional argument
	MapKeysToLower bool    // Indicates if the option of map type has it keys set ToLower
	OptType        Type    // Option Type
	MinArgs        int     // minimum args when using multi
	MaxArgs        int     // maximum args when using multi

	IsRequired    bool   // Indicates if the option is required
	IsRequiredErr string // Error message for the required option

	// Help
	DefaultStr   string // String representation of default value
	Description  string // Optional description used for help
	HelpArgName  string // Optional arg name used for help
