Overview

Package cli provides a minimal framework for creating and organizing command line Go applications. cli is designed to be easy to understand and write, the most simple cli application can be written as follows: 

func main() {
	(&cli.App{}).Run(os.Args)
}

Of course this application does not do much, so let's make this an actual application: 

func main() {
	app := &cli.App{
  		Name: "greet",
  		Usage: "say a greeting",
  		Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
  			fmt.Println("Greetings")
  			return nil
  		},
	}

	app.Run(os.Args)
}

var AppHelpTemplate = `` /* 839-byte string literal not displayed */

AppHelpTemplate is the text template for the Default help topic. cli.go uses text/template to render templates. You can render custom help text by setting this variable.

View Source 
var CommandHelpTemplate = `` /* 377-byte string literal not displayed */

CommandHelpTemplate is the text template for the command help topic. cli.go uses text/template to render templates. You can render custom help text by setting this variable.

var ErrWriter io.Writer = os.Stderr

ErrWriter is used to write errors to the user. This can be anything implementing the io.Writer interface and defaults to os.Stderr.

var FishCompletionTemplate = `` /* 358-byte string literal not displayed */

var HelpPrinter helpPrinter = printHelp

HelpPrinter is a function that writes the help output. If not set explicitly, this calls HelpPrinterCustom using only the default template functions.

If custom logic for printing help is required, this function can be overridden. If the ExtraInfo field is defined on an App, this function should not be modified, as HelpPrinterCustom will be used directly in order to capture the extra information.

View Source 
var HelpPrinterCustom helpPrinterCustom = printHelpCustom

HelpPrinterCustom is a function that writes the help output. It is used as the default implementation of HelpPrinter, and may be called directly if the ExtraInfo field is set on an App.

In the default implementation, if the customFuncs argument contains a "wrapAt" key, which is a function which takes no arguments and returns an int, this int value will be used to produce a "wrap" function used by the default template to wrap long lines.

var VersionPrinter = printVersion

Functions

func DefaultAppComplete 

func DefaultAppComplete(cCtx *Context)

DefaultAppComplete prints the list of subcommands as the default app completion method

func DefaultCompleteWithFlags 

func DefaultCompleteWithFlags(cmd *Command) func(cCtx *Context)

func FlagNames added in v2.7.0 

func FlagNames(name string, aliases []string) []string

func HandleAction 

func HandleAction(action interface{}, cCtx *Context) (err error)

HandleAction attempts to figure out which Action signature was used. If it's an ActionFunc or a func with the legacy signature for Action, the func is run!

func HandleExitCoder 

func HandleExitCoder(err error)

HandleExitCoder handles errors implementing ExitCoder by printing their message and calling OsExiter with the given exit code.

If the given error instead implements MultiError, each error will be checked for the ExitCoder interface, and OsExiter will be called with the last exit code found, or exit code 1 if no ExitCoder is found.

This function is the default error-handling behavior for an App.

func ShowAppHelp 

func ShowAppHelp(cCtx *Context) error

ShowAppHelp is an action that displays the help.

func ShowCommandCompletions 

func ShowCommandCompletions(ctx *Context, command string)

ShowCommandCompletions prints the custom completions for a given command

func ShowCommandHelp 

func ShowCommandHelp(ctx *Context, command string) error

ShowCommandHelp prints help for the given command

func ShowCommandHelpAndExit 

func ShowCommandHelpAndExit(c *Context, command string, code int)

ShowCommandHelpAndExit - exits with code after showing help

func ShowCompletions 

func ShowCompletions(cCtx *Context)

ShowCompletions prints the lists of commands within a given context

func ShowSubcommandHelp 

func ShowSubcommandHelp(cCtx *Context) error

ShowSubcommandHelp prints help for the given subcommand

func ShowSubcommandHelpAndExit added in v2.3.0

App is the main structure of a cli application. It is recommended that an app be created with the cli.NewApp() function

func NewApp 

func NewApp() *App

NewApp creates a new cli Application with some reasonable defaults for Name, Usage, Version and Action.

func (*App) Command 

func (a *App) Command(name string) *Command

Command returns the named command on App. Returns nil if the command does not exist

func (*App) Run 

func (a *App) Run(arguments []string) (err error)

Run is the entry point to the cli app. Parses the arguments slice and routes to the proper flag/args combination

Example 
// set args for examples sake
os.Args = []string{"greet", "--name", "Jeremy"}

app := &App{
	Name: "greet",
	Flags: []Flag{

func (a *App) ToFishCompletion() (string, error)

ToFishCompletion creates a fish completion string for the `*App` The function errors if either parsing or writing of the string fails.

ToMan creates a man page string with section number for the `*App` The function errors if either parsing or writing of the string fails.

func (*App) ToMarkdown 

func (a *App) ToMarkdown() (string, error)

ToMarkdown creates a markdown string for the `*App` The function errors if either parsing or writing of the string fails.

VisibleFlagCategories returns a slice containing all the categories with the flags they contain

func (*App) VisibleFlags 

func (a *App) VisibleFlags() []Flag

VisibleFlags returns a slice of the Flags with Hidden=false

type Args 

type Args interface {
	// Get returns the nth argument, or else a blank string
	Get(n int) string
	// First returns the first argument, or else a blank string
	First() string
	// Tail returns the rest of the arguments (not the first one)
	// or else an empty string slice
	Tail() []string
	// Len returns the length of the wrapped slice
	Len() int

	VisibleFlag
	CategorizableFlag

	// SetValue should propagate the given slice to the target, ideally as a new value.
	// Note that a nil slice should nil/clear any existing value (modelled as ~[]E).
	SetValue(slice []E)
	// SetDestination should propagate the given slice to the target, ideally as a new value.
	// Note that a nil slice should nil/clear any existing value (modelled as ~*[]E).
