Constants ¶
const ( Exact nArgRequirementType = iota Max Min )
Indicator used to pass to BadArgs function
Variables ¶
var CommandLine = NewFlagSet(os.Args[0], ExitOnError)
CommandLine is the default set of command-line flags, parsed from os.Args. The top-level functions such as BoolVar, Arg, and on are wrappers for the methods of CommandLine.
var ErrHelp = errors.New("flag: help requested")
ErrHelp is the error returned if the flag -help is invoked but no such flag is defined.
var ErrRetry = errors.New("flag: retry")
ErrRetry is the error returned if you need to try letter by letter
var ShortUsage = func() { fmt.Fprintf(CommandLine.output, "Usage of %s:\n", os.Args[0]) }
ShortUsage prints to standard error a usage message documenting the standard command layout The function is a variable that may be changed to point to a custom function.
var Usage = func() { fmt.Fprintf(CommandLine.Out(), "Usage of %s:\n", os.Args[0]) PrintDefaults() }
Usage prints to standard error a usage message documenting all defined command-line flags. The function is a variable that may be changed to point to a custom function.

type Getter ¶
type Getter interface { Value Get() interface{} }
Getter is an interface that allows the contents of a Value to be retrieved. It wraps the Value interface, rather than being part of it, because it appeared after Go 1 and its compatibility rules. All Value types provided by this package satisfy the Getter interface.
